Hello, I just recently bought my first boat. It's a 1981 Glastron HPV 165(if I recall correctly, waiting for the title to come back to verify)
it has a mercury 120 force for the engine.
Questions-
1- How can I verify the year and info on the outboard?
I'd like to know if original or replaced, then also get service manuals.
2- where can I get service manuals for the Glastron boat? Either download online or book to purchase.
I'm a car mechanic so I'm good with tools and mechanical knowledge, I just need the correct information. I'm currently replacing the water pump on the lower unit, I need to verify the outboard information to make sure I get the correct parts.
if I cannot get full manuals, I really would like wiring diagrams, it seems my boat needs an ignition switch and choke solenoid (?)
I am still diagnosing it, I need to check if I'm getting the main power feed to the switch first. Choke solenoid I'm not sure how to diagnose. Nothing happens if I send power to it using my power probe.
thanks in advance.
