[QUOTE="C_Hallbert, post: 3135361, member: 42957"] #1 I recommend Liquid Wrench (Penetrating Oil) and 24 Hour to set. If you can put some of the penetrating lubricant on the threads from above it will add some gravity to improve the thread surface area contacted. If the Brass Plug has a square external bolt surface, use a small Pipe Wrench with an Extension Tube to attach to the bolt surface. If necessary, square up the bolt surface of the Brass Plug with a file before attacking with the Pipe aWrench. A Pipe Wrench tightens as pressure is applied. If the external bolt. If the Brass Plug has an Internal Square Female contact point for removal, I would still use Penetrating Oil. However, first I would drill and employ a large Easy-Out. If it doesn’t do it, drill it out close to the threads, the apply a small punch and a chisel to fold in and knock out the remaining brass. #4 Two Batteries on an I.O. Engine generally designate one Battery (Usually Battery A) for Engine Starting, and another (Battery B) for Accessories (Navigation Lights, Horn, Search Light, Bilge Pump, LiveWell Pumps, etc). Both Batteries should be wired in Parallel (+ to +; - to -) through the Battery Selector Switch which enables: (OFF) Position- Isolate the Batteries to (OFF) for Engine Maintenance, Storage and Safety. Select (-A-) or (-B-) for Starting Select (A and B) in Parallel (If both Batteries are in a Low Charge State #5 Onboard Battery Chargers are usually wired directly to each Battery whether by a (2) Bank Charger or two separate Battery Chargers. Note- it would be possible to charge both Batteries in (A+B) Mode through the Battery Selector, Switch, but this leaves power to Engine Starter and Fuel Pump. If it is connected this way, I would change it. #6 Marine Dual Purpose Batteries provide both Starting and Deep Cycle attributes most useful for Accessories and Trolling Motors. Good Batteries are expensive. The Marine Dual Purpose Starting Battery I use for Starting my Yamaha F250 cost over $400..... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
