    Three Q's

    I want to mount a kicker on a '19 1990 bayliner CC with a 120 on it. I have a 2hp Evinrude. Is that enough to troll with? If the E2 is enough would a metal plate mounted to the transom with a wood block (2x8 or plywood) attached to it be strong enough? My father in law is giving me his old...

    fouling on plugs

    1990 force 120 I have to keep cleaning plugs after each trip to the lake. I didnt do it once and it left me sitting a few miles from the marina and had to be towed back. The carbon builds up, but you can pull them and scrape it off with your fingernail, pop it back in and off you go. Now I...

    heat sensor and alarm

    I need both the sensor and alarm for a 1990 force 120. I haven't had any luck searching the web. Any help? The buzzer is bad and wont sound. I tried to wire it directly to the battery and nothing happened. I put a test light between the wires that go to the buzzer and heated the sensor up...

    idle speed on a 2402E

    I took my 2402E out crappie fishing saturday and used it to troll around with some jigs. The motor ran well for not having been run for a few years, and it is new to me so I dont know the history on it. At low speeds however it would run for 5-15 minuted then cut off. If it cut off on its own...

    choke problem

    this may be similar to a post I read before, but a friend has a mid 90's 5 hp johnson. The motor will start on first pull with choke pulled out and will run fairly well at around half choke. With the choke pushed all the way in it will usually die, but sometimes idle, it will die if any...
