    Where can I buy this...

    I have a removable clamp-on seat base that I use on one of my jon boats. It looks similar to one pictured here. <br />The problem I have is that the thing slips off the bench or slides around too much. But on one of my boats I have some brackets screwed to the bench that hold it in place...

    Where can I find an OEM manual

    Does anyone know where I can order an OEM manual for a '92 Force 120? I looked at Ken Cook's website but it seems they only have OMC books (I haven't call them yet) so they don't look hopefull. I don't think the Seloc and Clymer manuals are specific enough for me. - Thanks.

    I've read many places (including here) that the boat should be stored winters with full fuel tanks to prevent condensation. However, I have also read that re-formulated fuel with ethonol should not be stored more than 60 days. Whats the scoop?

    150XP Problem with Warm Restart.

    I have a 1989 Evinrude 150XP that starts cold and runs fine until it is shut off and restarted. I can idle, race WOT, or cruise from a cold start through high temp; but when I shut it off for just a few seconds and restart, it loses power and dies as I increase throtle while in gear only but if...

    What is the compression supposed to be?

    What is the compression supposed to be on a 1989 Evinrude 150 XP (E150STL)? I did a compression test (without warming the engine first) and all port side cylinders were 90 and starboard was 100. Just thinking about this now, I probably should have warmed the engine first, but I'll do it again...

The tach however has me stumpped. The first time on the water I noticed the volt guage rise near 18v on...
