    2000 Mercury 90hp ELPTO slide shifter part number.

    It looks/looked like a different piece than the pic I took the day I broke it. Boat is in storage and it will be this weekend before I can pull the old one off. But to answer your question, I guess I think it won’t work because I haven’t tried it yet. Lol!

    2000 Mercury 90hp ELPTO slide shifter part number.

When I was putting everything back together, I cracked the plastic slide shifting piece that the shift cable attaches to. Motor is a 2000 90hp ELPTO, S/N 0Т106579. I ordered what I thought was the replacement...

    2003 Johnson J90PLSTC Starting issues

    You were correct, it wasn’t anything to do with the starter system. Pulled the plugs to see how the engine turns over, along with a compression check. Found a hole in one of the pistons. Dangit!

When the bendix falls back down after 1-3 turns of the flywheel, I can still hear the starter turning. I have taken the bendix shaft apart, cleaned and inspected. It...

    2003 Tahoe Q3 with the 4.3 propeller questions

    We just picked up a 2003 Tahoe Q3 F/S 4.3 and it has a 4 blade SS prop on it but no markings of the pitch. It gets out of the hole quickly but will run right past 5000 rpms which is not good. Any insight what the stock prop would be? I’d like better too speed as we aren’t pulling skiers. Thanks all!
