Septic Tank Pumping -- Do you need to
Yes and No;
A properly working system will go a long time before needing repair. By the time it is backing up the field lines have been done some damage.
In the cost of a new system, I am three for three currently on putting new systems in our houses. The tank is ~ 1500 but the field lines are more. It can cost you 5000 or more depending on the house and system. Rather than the tank you need to protect the field lines.
Previously we had a Rainbow vacuum. In this system you vacumm the floor into water and then flush it down the toilet. The dirt feeds the septic system.

Bleach will kill bacteria. If you have a lot of suppended solids the bleach will react with all the solids and be ineffective on the bacteria in solution or in the center of the organics. Thus you need to filter the water before treating with chlorine.
This is true for municipal water treatment or pools.
In septic system there is a lot of organics for the bleach to react with. It will kill the baterial on the surface but not in the mass of organic matter in the tank. Once the bleach has broken down some of the organics the bateria will repopulate the tank.
Adding a little soil to the tank will add some of the helpful bacteria and is a lot less costly than the special additives. The water based floor cleaners do this.
As with any soap they act to accelerate baterial action and feed the system. But as in the lake too much of a good think will overpopulate one type of bacteria and slow the break down of other oils, paper and other material.

Well I would argue with Tom as to the taxes mean more services. I lived in Sturbridge MA. Paid 2700$ per year tax, no water and no sewer, no garbage pickup.
I know we had some good slogans on the pump truck, but can no recall all. I am sure some are less than printable. Something like the fishing boat in Sechelt, "Master Baiter".

Cutter;
I think the idea is that the wire set is a universal. I bought a set a year ago like that and all the lines are longer than needed. I don't know where they expected you to stuff the extra wire.
The points that I have seen use Ultra high Molecular weight polyethylene for the bearing. The same material used in conveyor belt wear areas etc. No it does not need lub. Lub will oxidize in the high oxone environment. You are better off with out it. Have you not noticed that points last much longer now. When was the last time you used the points file.

Cutter you need to determine what power plant is in the boat. Ie GM Vortec 3800, Ford 5 L etc, as with the out drives the are from one of the three. Not likely Chrysler unless quite old. You should be able to get the basics at resonable prices, ie GM without the Crusader mark up.

Mark;
Just take normal grade, marine on it and jack the price 50%. I think if you get the silicone wires and boots that is about as good as it gets. The racing set are about the same except the wire is a little thicker.

I guess we are off topic but, the distributors on the aircraft are sealed but are not necessarily plastic.
The best system for wet conditions is a vent which is nanoporous, like goretex. Water tight seal on every thing and then a vent. This is the system we worked with on the GPS systems from Northstar (Marconi).
