    1982 SS 16 - garage find

    Hey Guys, ​I know I didn't finish my 18 yet but I found a garage find that I couldn't pass up. It's a 1982 SS 160 with a 1976 85HP Johnson on the back. Everything basically worked when I tested it in his driveway. Went over it again before picking up and shifter wouldn't go in reverse and...

    Ignition Wire Identification

    I can't figure out what this wire goes to, as it is not covered in any of the schematics in the manual. The engine started fine last year until I fixed something else. Now the engine will not crank in the start position or gauges do not power on when the key is on the "on" position. I have...
