A test tank and method including a portable test tank comprising a foldable and durable material; wherein the portable test tank is configured to hold water and withstand a force of the water; and wherein the water is agitated by an outboard motor operating up to a maximum revolutions per minute (rpm) of the outboard motor. The method includes unfolding a portable test tank comprising a foldable and durable material; filling the unfolded portable test tank with water; wherein the portable test tank is configured to hold water and withstand a force of the water; and agitating the water in the portable test tank by an outboard motor operating up to a maximum revolutions per minute (rpm) of the outboard motor.

The invention provides an internal combustion engine comprising a piston mounted for reciprocating linear motion within a cylinder along a cylinder axis. The piston is coupled to an output shaft by a power transfer assembly arranged to convert linear motion of the piston to rotary motion of the output shaft. The piston has a first head moveable within a first chamber and a second head opposite the first head and moveable within a second chamber. The power transfer assembly has a lubrication system for lubricating moving components of the power transfer assembly. The lubrication system is sealed from the first chamber and the second chamber to prevent the passage of fluid from the lubrication system into the first chamber and the second chamber.

An outboard motor includes a drive shaft extending vertically from an engine and is rotated by the engine. An upper case covers the drive shaft. A propeller shaft extends perpendicularly or substantially perpendicularly to the drive shaft. A lower case covers the propeller shaft. A front handle is disposed forward of the drive shaft and below an engine cover. A rear handle is disposed rearward of the drive shaft and below the engine cover. The rear handle is disposed in a position lower than a position of the front handle.

Apparatuses and methods for stabilizing an outboard motor of a watercraft during transport by a towed vehicle include a body having an outer member secured to the towed vehicle and an inner member disposed within and telescopingly movable relative to the outer member, the inner member having a head usable to contact and stabilize the outboard motor. A biasing member urges the inner member toward a retracted position. The inner member includes a first portion pivotally movable relative to a second portion, between an angled and a straight position. Contact between the first portion and the outer member prevents movement of the inner member toward the retracted position.

The bracket of this invention is to support an outboard motor or outdrive while being transported over the road on the stern of a boat. The bracket allows the foot or housing of the outboard motor or outdrive to be placed in such an up position so that it is not in danger of coming in contact with the surface of the roadway. The bracket also prevents excessive weight on and consequential damage to the hydraulic and manual tilt and support systems of the outboard motor or outdrive being transported. The bracket hangs from the factory drilled holes in the outboard motor clamp bracket or outdrive bracket by means of a drop bar pin secured in place by quickly and easily removable click pins. When assembled, the bracket forms a rigid support between the stern of a boat and the foot or shaft housing of the motor or outdrive being transported.

The present invention relates to a portable outboard motor support and lift comprising a first portable base (114) securely attached to a portable base outer cylinder having an inner cylinder mounted therein. An outboard motor support is securely attached to the inner cylinder. The present invention further comprises a connecting means which functions to connect the portable base outer cylinder to the inner cylinder.

The invention provides an article carrier (10) having a handle (22) formed from flexible material at the top of the article that is to be carried (11). A pair of straps (18, 20) which form article-encircling loops are both connected to the handle (22). Where the straps (18, 20) are connected to the handle (22), each is twisted to make a half turn, i.e., 180.degree. twist, and each is folded against itself to define an oblique angle (A) between portions of each strap (18, 20) on opposite sides of the handle (22). The strap (18) at the front end of the handle (22) diverges forwardly and the strap (20) connected to the rear of the handle diverges rearwardly. Sewing between the straps and a cover (12) terminates on either side of the handle (22) to form a sleeve which serves as an opening into which a reinforcing plate (26) is placed. Pockets (14, 16) on opposite sides of the cover (12) each have a hollow interior and each includes an upper flattened tubular portion (53) which is folded downwardly when the pocket (14, 16) is closed to help prevent water from entering either pocket (14, 16).

An anti-theft locking system for marine outboard and out-drive units is provided. This system initially locks the motor propeller to the foot of the out-drive unit, and then allows a chain or cable to be used to lock the device, the boat, and the trailer to an immovable object. The locking system utilizes a locking member with a hook that engages the propeller, and wraps around the foot of the marine drive unit, providing a lockable portion to affix the device to the propeller and foot of the marine out-drive unit.

Apparatus for killing marine life, such as zebra mussels, in the cooling system (14) of a boat having a water-cooled internal combustion engine (11) includes a flexible bag-like enclosure (20) which is adapted to be mounted on the boat so as to provide a closed volume of water communicating with the cooling system inlet (18) and cooling system outlet (19). When the engine is allowed to idle in neutral, cooling water is drawn from the enclosure and is circulated through the cooling system in heat exchange relation to the engine, and is discharged back into the enclosure. The temperature of water in the enclosure and cooling system will therefor increase. After the engine has been operated for a period of time, the temperature of water in the enclosure and the cooling system will increase to a level necessary to kill marine life in the cooling system.
