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 made a rough wiring schematic of the way I would like to wire up my aerators and attached it. My boat has 2 fresh water aerators and 2 recirculating aerators. There is an original timer for the fresh water aerators, but it no longer works. I am wanting to add a timer for the recirculating...
When I was reinstalling the lower unit the other day, the drive shaft splines weren't lining up properly for reinstallation. So I put the lower unit in reverse (using the driver's seat shifter) so that I could turn the prop and line up the drive shaft splines properly. It worked and I got the...
Only had the 92 Mercury XR4 150 for a couple of weeks. The engine was having some problems starting when it is in the water. Tried it the other day in the driveway with the muffs on and the alarm went off from no water pumping through. So I changed the impeller, impeller housing, and gaskets...
I am dropping the lower unit to change out the water pump impeller on a Mercury XR4 150 Black Max. The sacrificial anode has a 2.5" fin on it and the prop is a 4 blade SS. Other prop details unknown. Should I angle the fin any when I reinstall it? The fin was straight before and the torque...
I have a 92 Mercury 150 XR4 BlackMax. One of the POs installed a hot foot and apparently disconnected the fast idle lever and choke. Or at least that is what it seems like to me. I know the fast idle lever does not work.
When I try to start the engine, it's sometimes hard to start and won't...
I have 92 Skeeter 175 SF with a fuel gauge problem. The gauge always shows empty. I followed instructions to test the gauge that I found here. The gauge appeared to test fine. Checked the sending unit and it moved the gauge needle when I grounded the sending wire. So I guess my sending unit is...
I have a '92 Skeeter and it has a deck light in the front and the rear. Both are made by Perko and both contain lights that apparently can not be replaced. Plus they are halogen lights and will eventually burn out again. LEDs can be bright white and hardly use any electricity at all. So I wanted...
I did a search and didn't find anything. I have a 1992 19' Skeeter bass boat that I recently bought. It has no cleats to tie up to a dock. I picked up a cheap pair of 4" cleats to add to the boat and know I need a backing plate when installing them. But my question is, is there a basic rule of...
I just bought a used 92 Skeeter with a 92 Mercury 150 XR2 Black Max. Serial number OD080839 if that helps any. The water pressure gauge next to the dash switches is maxed out on 30 pounds all the time. Would I be correct to assume that since the gauge is maxed out at 30 pounds all the time that...
