New Member from Central Illinois

Post by Matt J »

Hello from Central Illinois and thanks for the add! I'm a Cobalt Newb here, and just purchased a new to us 97 232. I'm looking forward to learning from the group, and am finding there seems to be always something requiring a bit of attention. I'm amazed at the quality of ride and the power. My boat has the 7.4L LX MPI.

Hey MJ.
Welcome to the Cobaltchat forum. So glad you found us!

Thanks for the picture too. Nothing like a tried and true fuel injected 454 to get ya’ up and moving.

Feel free to post an engine pic. :D

Again, welcome aboard mate!
