J150GLERA 1994 Faststrike
I recently noticed a steady drip of fuel from one of the float bowls where the little BB is pressed to seal the fuel passage. About the time this fuel leak started, when I would take off to a new fishing spot after fishing for a few hours it would fall on its face and...
I’ve got a 1994 Johnson faststrike 150 model j150glera
When I raise the motor to leave for the lake after it’s been sitting for a week or so the trim and tilt are very sluggish. It raises but very slowly. And it’s the same speed from all 3 trim switches around the Boat.
I raised and blocked...

Boat has always been very hard to start the first time but after the first time it starts great the rest of the day and then difficult again after sitting all night. Fuel is not getting to the carb so we added and momentary push...
I have a 1994 Bryant 180 with 4.3lx alpha one gen 2
Last year about half way through the season we began to take on water after using the boat in some log and stick filled water. It continued to seem to get worse throughout the summer, about 1-2 gallons every five minutes would pump out. I...

I replaced the alternator last week since the old one had gone bad when I put the new one in I noticed how out of alignment it was with the other pulleys and when started it squealed very bad.

Goodmorning everyone, for about half the summer we've been having some issues with our boat. It's a 1994 bryant 180 with a 4.3lx 4bbl. The boat will run great for the first day or so at the lake and then at higher speeds after a couple days it will kind of start to lose power and have a...
Good afternoon everyone, last weekend we took the boat out and had some issues. Boat has a 4.3lx thunderbolt 4. Took the boat out the first night after changing cap and spark plugs and new batteries and she ran great for 30 minutes up and down the lake with no problems at all. When idling...
Good afternoon everyone, over the 4th of July weekend we too out our 94 bryant 180 with a 4.3lx. Went to launch on Saturday and cranked and cranked with no start. We smelled no gas so assumed something along the fuel line system. We took it to a the local repair shop down the road and they...
Hey guys i just had a quick question about what in the world is this yellow pump mounted to the inside transom of my 94 Bryant 180 bowrider? Its got a thru hull mount attached to the base below the waterline and a few hoses running from the pump and then sealed off. It doesnt look like its been...

So ive got a 91 Searay 170 that i spent all spring replacing all the stringers and floor due to them being rotted. I used nothing but high quality fiberglass and dougfir wood and 2 part foam and didnt skimp on the materials and labor at all. Well it came time to dewinterize and get ready for...
As some of you know ive been struggling getting my roommates 3.0 engine up and running after changing out my ignition for electronic ignition so I took it to our local boat repair shop and they got it timed and running for about 30 seconds and realized cylinders 3 and 4 had water sitting in...
Ok Ive got a 1990 3.0 Mercruiser in a Searay 170 and we dewinterized and started it a few weeks ago and after some cranking she finally fired up and ran fine with no stalling issues or anything like that. The carb is freshly rebuilt and was running fine. This weekend I went to install the...
I was wondering whatthe proper timing would be for a 1990 3.0 after swapping the points out for the Pertronix Ignitor 2 and FlameThrower 2. I believe the proper timing for points was 8* BTDC, would this stay the same with electric ignition or not? Some help from those of you that have done this...
