I just bought a used 92 Skeeter with a 92 Mercury 150 XR2 Black Max. Serial number OD080839 if that helps any. The water pressure gauge next to the dash switches is maxed out on 30 pounds all the time. Would I be correct to assume that since the gauge is maxed out at 30 pounds all the time that the gauge is most likely broken? If it weren't connected or wasn't getting any pressure, then the gauge should be reading zero pounds. I haven't yet had time to go through and trace the line yet to be sure the water pressure line is "wired" right and thought I should go ahead and ask if I need to bother checking the water line or if I should go ahead and pick up a new pressure gauge?
I am changing out the lower gear oil and changing the impeller right now. Drained the gear oil and went to the dealer to pick up oil and impeller kit. The dealer was closed today so no joy on the impeller change. I would have had that done and been ready to start tracing the water line this week.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
