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 tried cleaning up some wiring yesterday and moved some stuff around. I only have one battery on my J14 and have never had it drain yet. Is stays on a battery tender plus when notin use. My Q is, since I removed a bunch of wires from running up to the console and being a tangled up mess and...
E25teerc '94 25hp
If I turn the dial on the cable I can get the boat to shift in and out of gear as it should but it won't start because the neutral safety switch isn't allowing it to start. So the way it been since I've had it is that it goes into forward and reverse fine but to go to neutral...
To replace the thermostat on my '94 25 hp I think I have to remove the cylinder cover. If I order a thermostat kit does the cylinder cover gasket come in the kit or do I need to order that aswell. I don't see it listed in the kit, which one would think that if you got a kit it would have all the...
I have a 94 Evinrude 25 that has ran fine until I took it out yesterday. On the previous trip I ran the gas tank empty on accident but filled up and kept going fine. Yesterday I got about a mile from the ramp and it's puttered and died. I could start back up and had a slightly rough idle but...
I recently added a sending unit and temp gauge on my 94 Evinrude 25 2stk. It reads 58-60 degrees. The head of the motor never feels warm to the touch and the front half of the motor and carb have condensation running off of it and is very cold, like ice cold, to the touch. I have been storing...
I just had the carb rebuilt on my evinrude. It was having problems when trying to accelerate before the rebuild but idled fine. I had it done by a professional and reputable shop in my area. It now coughs at just above an idol and I dont remember it doing that before. I only ran the motor...
It looks to me that to remove the lower unit I need to remove two pins from the shift linkage. Will I hurt or bend anything using a punch set and can the pins be reused? If these are not the proper steps please enlighten me. Thanks
I hear people say trim motor to level with water when boat is floating which makes me think it is stationary and I also hear level to water while on plane. Are they basically the same? I think my skiff rides with the bow slightly higher on plane then when is is adrift. I'm referring to a manual...
Oil light stays on. Took it to shop and they said sensor was bad and ordered a new one, told me it would be fine as long as I knew there was oil in it keep using it until the new one came in. Two weeks later new one comes in and I replace it and light is still on. I haven't had the boat long and...
I have a new to me Nissan 18 on a 2009 J14 Carolina Skiff. The engine started cutting up on the lake today. Mostly at higher rpms it would act like its bogged down or starved for fuel. At an idle it speeds up and slows down from a medium high idle to a slow lope. So I drained the tank and put...

I went to the lake and took off. After about a half mile the engine bogged down and the tach went from 5000 to 3500. I went back to the marina and checked the plugs. The second plug was very fouled. I changed all the plugs and headed back out. The second cylinder was still not firing after...
Sat morning running down the lake I lost some power and dropped 1500 off rpm. I went back to the marina and tied off to the dock and changed the plugs. The second one from the top was fouled out. Tried to go again and couldn't get up to speed or past 3500 rpm. I suspect a coil but the new...
1990 bayliner
The transom only has a backer where the outboard is mounted. There is no good way to add a backer that I can see without cutting the deck or bait tank out and then repairing that too. Would there be any issues with bolting a custom mount to the transom right beside the 120...

I am going to add a kicker mount to my 1990 Bayliner Trophy CC. I already have a Evinrude 2hp that I hope will push it enough to troll some lures behind me. I may have to replace the 2hp with a larger motor one day. The thing I need to know about is mount location. The 2hp...
