Any owners of MinnKota Talons on the site ? Been gettin’ Pluff Mud building up and somewhat clogging mechanism. Not the fiberglass talon part, the metal slide. Any ideas or help, beyond rinsing thoroughly ?
We have an older one, we follow the instructions from the manual:
Marvel mystery oil is the best
Thanx, guys. My Talon is a New One (2018). I’ll Look, but don’t remember a flushout port.I’ve been flushing each use, but it’s Not real easy to do, especially with the sticky Pluff Mud.
We made our talon easy to remove for storage using these (there are different sizes): https://www.amazon.com/Minn-Kota-1810232-Release-12-■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■+release
After use we remove it and run the pin all the way out and rinse it off.
Thnx, I have a Tilt mechanism on mine that allows me to run it all the way out and rinse thoroughly.
