    82 carb, am I missing a screw here?

    Hi guys, new owner of an 82 lund v hull with an 82 Mercury 40. Took it out yesterday and we were running a little rough. Boat has been sitting in a barn all winter so I figured, as always, let's start with a look at the carb. I'm very curious though. In this photo there is an empty threaded hole...

    Quick opinion please!

    So...9.9 Johnson 2 stroke. Just pulled it out of the garage for the first time this year. Electric start not engaging, but Jesus I really hope that this is due to the fact that my starting battery was almost dead, but wanted some opinions. Thanks for any input guys! https://youtu.be/5GW82uMV92c

    Neat setup

    I'm sure the boat is probably a cheaper quality, but I just think this setup is pretty damn nice, especially with the bow mount troller... Higher quality boat and a larger motor and its really sweet!

    Sea Eagle Foldcat mods

    I haven't really seen much regarding many sea eagle boats on here. I think it's mainly because they are so pricy when compared to Saturn, west marine, etc. I have just acquired a Foldcat 375fc pro Fisher package. It has 4 rod holders, oars, motor mount, 2 swivel seats, one with a 7" pedestal...

    Anyone have a sea eagle foldcat?

    Hey guys.... I had started with an intex mariner, then moved on to a Saturn. Then to a aluminum. Now I'm moving to a place where I'll have no storage for the big aluminum, plus all the good lakes are electric only. Now.... Here I am again, I loved inflatables! I am contemplating going back to...

    No stream 94 Johnson 25

    Hey guys, changed impeller today, old one had disintegrated, and left a burnt up mess. Got a new one this morning but I'm only getting a few drops instead of a stream. I cleared the gunk out of the tube attached to lower unit but now I'm thinking it's clogged further up in the power head. I'm...

    94 Johnson 25

    Can anyone explain how to use this carb/pump/primer system for me? It's a 94 Johnson 25 hp with steering controls. Pull start. I just don't know exactly how this works, or how to Rev it up at all since it goes into gear when moving throttle

    95 merc 15

    Hey guys, I've worked out a trade for a 95 15hp. Papers to show it was recently serviced at a well known marine mechanic. My question is, is there anything I need/should know about these motors? Common problems/issues? I'm trading him for a generator that I don't really need, about equal $value.

    opinions please

    Opinions please, I'm looking at this outboard, it's something I can afford right now. I want to get something bigger and better but I'm thinking this can get me through 6 months until $situation gets better. I've talked the price down to $150. Needs carb put back on... He says it'll run for a...

    1968 Johnson 9.5.... turtle

    I got a 9.5 Johnson.... The turtle #mq-14 Picked it up, no action at all. I've cleaned the fuel system all the way to the carb. As far as I can tell the carb is clean as a whistle. Good clean gas sitting in the bowl. Started out that it would only start when sprayed. Now I can get up to 30 sec...

But if it is on his condition would you guys get it for the right price?http://images.craigslist.org/00202_6SdCff1CLrl_600x450.jpg

    '72 Ormond 12' fiberglass

    '72 ormond 12' Hey guys, I got a killer deal on an old fiberglass boat $60! I figured it would be worth a chance. I already had an '88 Johnson 14 and a #30 Minn kota. Put her in the water for the first time and ran fantastic! So now it's on to the refinishing part. I'm not investing $100s in...

    ocean worthy?

    So.... Question was posed in another thread and got me thinking. Next time I'm in the salt water, I'm thinking about going on out of the inlet into the open water, but I was wanting some opinions. I have the Saturn 12ft mini cat, with a very dependable Johnson 14hp. I'm very comfortable in the...
