    2001 Honda 50 hp shift and throttle box.

    I am looking at replacing my 1990 60 hp Johnson 2 stroke with a 2001 Honda 50 hp. Does anyone know will the Johnson throttle and shifter work with the Honda? I know the wiring will be different just wondering about the shifter. TIA

    Foam in toons or safety gauge to detect leak

    just a thought if your toons have a pipe plug on the top. Could you install a small pump with a suction hose going into the toon to suck out any water. like a bilge pump.

    1990 Johnson 60 hp no at power full throttle, no cough or sputter

    Thanks I am going to try changing plugs and then go from there. I have ran it about 30 hours with out changing plugs. I am not sure about the tell tale hose I did put a new pump in this spring and I am getting a good stream from the tell tale hose.

    I/O in a tritoon

    I've never owned a pontoon before. This is the first one I've seen. Years ago I helped build some house boats we put diesel engine with jet drive in the pontoons. I'm curious about how these work out or if it's a dud

    I/O in a tritoon

    I'm looking at at tritoon with a I/O. I haven't seen it yet in person yet from what I can see is it has a OMC cobra outdrive and motor in the center toon. Any advice or comments or should I run away from it Thanks
