| Apparantly on later model Universals (my boat is a 1988), you DO pull on the black lever which is not referred to as a decompression lever but, rather, a "shut down lever" that you pull on. It states: "All newer models have a shut down lever on panel, pull lever to stop engine, then turn off key.
Anyone know with certainty? | |

| Those are impressive numbers!
What policeman would get out a tape measure and argue with you she is 8'10" and not 8'6"? Two inches a side is nothing (as long as you are careful and dont hit anything. )
With a ballast of 2,700 pounds, and a mast of 38', you can sail hot footed anywhere. | |
