I have a custom built 28' Skipjack fishing boat with a Marine Power 454 mated to a Borg Warner transmission and a TR outdrive. Today while doing some work on the boat I noticed some antifreeze on the ground behind the boat. At first I thought it was dripping out of the drain plug, but when I...
All my past boats have had a helm with a nut that holds the wheel on the shaft with a key way, the boat I have now has a bolt head and it just spins in both directions. I tried grabbing it with Vise grips and was pulling while spinning to see if I could get it out. I give up, what's the trick...
I recently sold my Wellcraft with a Zuke DF 200 to a friend of mine, it was time to change out the batteries so he bought 2 high quality marine batteries. With the engine running on the hose for a few minutes the SMIS gauges both say "Low Battery Voltage" and kills the engine. Did a search and...
I have a leak around the shaft of the single trim and tilt ram. Looks like there is no seal that is available seperatley, do I have to buy the tank to fix the problem?
BTW: It is a 70hp
Starts and idles fine but when I try to speed the engine up with the fast idle lever it dies. It will not start with the throttle above idle. I will check the fuel pressure in the morning, but was wondering what you guys think could be the problem.
Thanks
Does anyone know if the Universal type cable with the Suzuki ends work with this motor or does it take the OMC 479 cable with the wheel adjustment?
Thanks
Just bought a 2000 70hp Evinrude 4 stroke.It does not come with a control box or harness.Will a control box for a 2000 Suzuki DF70 work? Or will any OMC box work? Also what about props? Are they interchangable?
Thanks
Picked up a 2007 Suzuki DF200 that was part of a twin engine set up.The guy gave me 2 each of gauges and ignition switches,along with a dual binnacle control. Can I just seperate the units and buy a single cover for it?
Thanks
My 1989 Yamaha 200hp 2 stroke blew the powerhead. I can purchase a 2007 Suzuki DF200 with 100 hrs for $7000.00 My boat is a 1984 Wellcraft Sportsman 248 with a bracket. I was happy with performance of the Yamaha and wanted to get opinions on the Suzuki's performance despite being almost 200lbs...
I blew the powerhead on my 1989 Yamaha 200hp.I found a new Yamaha factory powerhead that someone purchased from the city auction. part # is 68H-W0090-12-19.
I did a search and came up with nothing.Does someone have access to the older parts listing to see if this powerhead will work for me...
After finishing my 25'Wellcraft makeover (http://forums.iboats.com/showthread.php?t=262606&highlight=Sportsman) I decided I needed something smaller to fish the bay and lakes around here. I picked up this Sylvan on Saturday to keep me busy over the winter out here (San Diego) The boat came with...
Can this gauge be hooked up to a Furuno GPS system? I also do not see where to calibrate the gauge,I have read that you pull a rubber plug off the back to gain access to it. The only thing I see in the back is a plastic thing that says 4 6 8. There also is a black cable with a small 6pin plug...
