    OMC Trolling motor parts inquiry

    Looks like it was used on just about every model from 1989 on. Is this like yours? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Evinrude-Johnson-Bow-Arm-Deck-Plate-Used-/382247190449?hash=item58ffb53fb1:g:nzwAAOSw8-xZ28rS

    What connectors should these be replaced with?

    Probably 14 or 12 ga connector. Might want to do something about that screw before you rip your arm open.

    Better seats and pedestals

    A 238 series base and pedestal are hard to beat for solidity. Seats? Everyone has a favorite. I personally can't stand the Centric seats, others swear by them. Put Garelick seats with arm rests in my boat a few years back. Just having the arm rests seams to take a lot of pressure off your...

    mercury 25HP strange occurence... prop?

    Late to the discussion here, but I have looked at the videos and it sure looks like engine is still way too low in the water. Doesn't matter where the deflection plate is. The large plate just above the prop ( anti-ventilation plate ) NEEDS to be even with the bottom of the hull. See the...

    1998 Mariner 25 HP is there a way to dampen the steering

    Yes, in the front, just above the transom clamp and be;ow the top cover. Small flat bar slides left and right. As you move it, it puts pressure on a curved bar, putting tension on the entire thing. The curved bar ( silver in cold ) can break, been there, done that. They are shown in the upper...

    1987 Force Outboard. Need help identifying a part.

    pitot, pick up for an old speedometer. Probably doesn't work anyway. If it works, it needs to be down, dragging in the water.
