wow I can't believe this old thread of mine is alive someplace still. I actually sold the boat in 2011 to finance a move to the Oregon Coast. But I can still answer this simple question.

Although I had a few problems getting there I would suggest an ignition upgrade to anyone running one of these old v6's, for the cost it pays for itself in gas the first season. Of course rebuilding the carb didn't hurt either [links]

For sale is a classic runabout boat from 1968! It has a Buick 225 engine that recently had the carb rebuilt. It starts but has trouble staying running. It has a pretty well full tank of old gas (3 years) so that is probably the issue. I purchased a new boat, so this has to go. Comes with a trailer. . more

The seller is well known in the classic car hobby and the publisher and owner of Grassroots Motorsports and Classic Motorsports magazines, so he knows his stuff. He is also one of us, a boat nut and got bitten by this boat at Lake Dora a couple years ago.. By the way,, Lake Dora is less than 3 months from now! Woohooo!
