    Prop suggestions- V6-150

    Just trying to get some ballpark ideas for where to start. My boat came to me as a "repower in progress" with a '79 Mercury V6 150 on the back. I have since got everything hooked up and did a good deal of preventative maintainance to get it running happy. The boat is an '84 Starcraft 191...

    V-6 150 starting issues... starter disengages too early

    Hi. My '79 V-6 150 will crank and crank and then just as it starts to catch, the starter kickes out prematurely. If I give it a second, then crank it again it stats to crank and then kicks out again. Eventually, with enough cranking it finally starts, but seems like it would be easier if it...

    Opinions on canvas/cover ('84 191 Islander)

    Hi, I'm looking to add a full mooring cover to my boat. The only problem is, the ones already made for my boat cover only 1993, or 1997-2006. I know the styling of the boat hasn't changed much as far as I can tell, so would a '93 cover possibly fit? The only differences I can tell between...

    V6 150.......... Problem peeing

    Hi, I'm new here and love what I've read so far. Also done some searches and found very relevant stuff... just a little overwhelmed. I have a V6 150 (guessing 1978-79 based on the serial) that came as a "repower in progress" on the 2nd boat I picked up. Got the manual today and got it all...
