The iboats forum moderators are excited to announce that at this time it appears the iboats forums posting pictures function is working once again. Though we cannot promise for how long, we're hoping for indefinitely.
I lost Navigation lights and Gauge light last time out. I checked everything and all connections look good, fuses are all good unless I missed some fuse panels. Am I missing something? Is there a download for electical on here anywhere?
Well I got new carb on and impeller and everything on starboard motor is great. Put the new carb on port motor and the fuel pressure is about 5psi. Now it just sounds like there is no fire. I have spark (bit on the yellow side,weak?, not blue) Am I over looking something taht could be causing it...
