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 have a 1994 Ranger 375V bass boat that has some the carpet coming loose. I was wondering what type of adhesive I could use to reglue these areas of carpet that are coming loose. <br /><br />Thanks
Probably a stupid question, but here goes anyway. When you change the fuel water separator spin on filter, do you need to fill the filter with gasoline before screwing it in place? I thought that I read that somewhere and was hoping this was wrong as I think this could be a little dangerous...
I have a 1994 Ranger 375v bassboat with a 1994 Johnson 150 hp Faststrike motor on it. I am running a 3 blade 14 1/2 X 24 Raker prop on it. In the 10 years I have owned this rig (bought it new in 94) I had never run it at wide open throttle. I never knew, until I came across this board, the...
I have a 1994 Johnson 150 FastStike with VRO. I have never had any problems with the oiling system and never even gave it a second thought until I found several Outboard Motor Forums. Now I wonder if I should disable it and mix my oil. I am curious what all the experts out there think.
Does anyone have a parts manual for a 1994 Johnson 150 FastStrike model number J150GLERV? I have the OEM sevice manual, but no parts manual. I recently installed a new water pump kit in my motor and did not install an o'ring at the top of the driveshaft. The OEM service manual does not show an...
I just finished installing a new water pump kit in my 1994 Johnson 150 FastStrike motor and have a couple of questions. I strongly believe I messed up and installed the gasket for the water pump plate on top of the plate instead of between the bottom of the plate and the lower unit surface. I...
I have a 1994 150 Johnson FastStrike motor (model J150GLERV) that I will be putting a new water pump kit in soon. I have never done this. I did purchase the OEM manual and have a question about installing the lower unit after I hopefully install the water pump kit. In the manual, it refers to...
Is there a maximum length the vro hose can be from the oil tank to the engine? I know you all are going to be sayinig, "this guy has had this boat for 10+ years and is just now noticing the length of his oil line?". That's right. I bought the boat new in 1994 and have never had any trouble...
I hope I am posting this question on the correct forum. I have a 1994 Johnson 150 FastStrike (model number J150GLERV)and never have changed the water pump on it. Through previous postings, I realize I need to replace it using a complete water pump kit. I was told on this forum that the part...
I have a 1994 150hp Johnson FastStike and was wondering what my water pressure readings should be at different RPM's. I have the dash mounted pressure gage, but no one has ever told me what readings I should expect at different RPM's.<br /><br />Thanks
In the near future, I will be replacing the water pump on this engine. I do have an OEM manual for it. Do any of you have any special short cuts/important tips for changing this water pump. The engine has the original pump on it and I am not having any problems with it as far as I know. Just...
Hi. I have a 1994 150 hp Johnson Fast Strike that I purchased new in 1994 with my boat. I have never replaced the water pump and (after reading the many posts about changing it on here) probably will this spring. I have a couple of questions. First, can I get by with just an impeller change...
I have a 1994 Johnson 150 Faststrike mounted on a 1994 Ranger 375V. I keep reading various posts about RPM at WOT, overpropping, etc. and have a question. I have never operated my motor at WOT as I don't care to go that fast in the boat (I really don't know what top end is, but I have had it...
I have a 1994 150 hp Johnson Fast Strike that I purchased new in 1994. I don't remember if the head bolts were ever retorqed after the break-in period. I have no problems with the motor that I am aware of, but keep reading how important it is to retorque these bolts. If I now retorque them...
