Just bought my first boat yesterday. While I've borrowed others, this one is all mine. I've used this forum before my purchase to do some research. Now I must ask questions.
I bought a 1989 Nitro w/ a 125hp Force on it. Can anyone tell me where to look to identify what year it is. I'm thinking it's an 89 also.
Found the purple wire for the tach. It only reads zero, but when you kill the engine, the needle jumps. My first guess is since this is a newer tach, that it's 12 poles, & not 20. Learned that from searching here.
But how do I tell?
When I lifted the cover off, the sound deadening foam on the bottom was saturated w/ gas/oil. I know that's were the carb is, & I need to run the engine to see where it's squirting from. Just thought I'd ask if anyone has seen this before.
This sure looks like a great forum & thanks for all the help.
