 Rain in exhaust
I have a 23hp Go Devil that spins around for towing. If I am pulling the boat in the rain do I need to worry about rain going in the muffler outlet? I doesn't seem like much water could make it in there but I don't want to tear up my motor.

 Re: Rain in exhaust
Either get a motor cover or put a exhaust flapper like they use on small tractors

 Re: Rain in exhaust
Wrap that rascal!!!  Seriously tho, I bought a motor once & carried it home on pallet/stand in truck bed with exhaust facing fwd in truck. Had to change the oil & flush the water out of it when I got home because of the snow melting in the pipe.

 Re: Rain in exhaust
Thanks for the help. I'll try to find a cork or something to go in there.

 Re: Rain in exhaust
Whatever you use, make sure it's big enough that you can't forget it's there.
