Gentlemen, Bought a '97 Sweet 16 with 4.3 a few months ago and am wondering if anyone knows the approx. weight with full tank of gas. Live on lakefront and am looking at electric lifts to keep clean and out of water at dockside.
Also, b4 winterizing, started to have "wandering" problem with tach needle at slow speeds which went away at 3,000 and above. Any ideas ??
And one more ---sorry----- turns out I was misled by seller as to being "only a fresh water" boat as my local marina says it has seen quite a bit of salt but is still in good condition. Any ideas as to what sort of problems I may be up against in the future , (from salt) and how will I recognize these problems b4 they cause major headaches ?? Any "precautionary" steps I should be thinking about now b4 the salt rears it's ugly head ??
I appreciate all your help and LOVE this site !!! All you guys always seem very helpful in helping out fellow Donzi owners, and for this I am gratefull. !!
