So, I have a 85 Bayliner 1950, with an AQ125b and an AQ270 outdrive.
Last week, was having a wonderful weekend with the girl when I hit a 2x8 while running at a fair clip. It sounded like it popped the drive up, but low after powering down and checking it out, everything seemed to worked...
Hi All-
I have a 1985 Bayliner 1950 with an AQ125b and a volvo penta Aquamatic 270 outdrive. It's been taking on a good bit of water as I drive around (not so much when it's sitting, but definitely more than I'd like.) I just noticed that there was a 2 inch tear in the bottom of the...
OK, I have an 85 Bayliner Capri 1950, and I'm starting to be able to fix the problems that are just annoying, since I seem to have gotten all the ones that were stopping the boat. (Thanks to all on this forum who have helped.) This weekend's issue: When I'm cruising around the lake, it seems...

Hi-
I recently had the head rebuilt on my AQ125B, and I don't think the guy hooked the Solex carb back up correctly. Specifically, the pushrod, which moves with the throttle, that sticks through a hole at the base of arm on the accelerator pump. The pushrod just slides right through when...
Hi-
I have a 1985 Bayliner Capri 1950 with a Volvo Penta AQ125B... with an I/O sterndrive. This was an unmaintained boat until I got my hands on it last year, and I'm working down a list of issues...
The problem I'm trying to address is mainly this: When starting cold, I can usually get it...
Hi-
I have a 1985 Bayliner Capri (19.5 foot).
I was out enjoying a great day on the lake sunday, when I stupidly decided to to try to diagnose an occasional start problem. (Sometimes you would have to giggle the bottom of the fuse panel before it would turn over- just got the boat 4 weeks...
