No reason for steel unless want issues like he had. Non stainless steel guaranteed to rust and corrode till prop is seized. Stainless key better than standard steel but still not recommended.

That, and a stainless key would defeat the whole reason for the key - which is to shear if needed.

Whew. Wonder if steel keys are used when you have a stainless prop ?

In a prior life, I was able to build custom handles and lines via Ski Rope Parts or some similar name.

In particular, I made the equivalent of an EZUp handle for my wife, enabling her to learn how to get up and out on a slalom ski.  Does any outfit sell line and handles and the like for those such as I am?

Also, someone with a manual likely knows, but what fuel is it that an 02 Sunscape LSV should use??

Thanks.

Constant flow loop is probably better.  Some engines require the heater loop to flow.  SBC does not, but you didn't say what engine you have.

Monsoon, looping sounds like the best option, might need to do it at the block end though, possibly a leak midway between block and heater, hard to follow pipes 

Whew. Wonder if steel keys are used when you have a stainless prop ?
