Joe54, when you get a chance would you mind looking at the carburetor setting for the mercury 90 hp 2 stroke for me. I just wanted to verify that it is the same as my manual. I am looking for how...
I have a 2003 mercury 90hp ELPTO. A friend gave a mercury manual printed in 1997. Manual 90-830234R3. Will this manual work for my motor? Says it covers 75hp-125hp. Has anything changed on the 90hp...
Thanks for the input. No it doesn’t smoke that much. I have done a little research and I’m thinking it may be that when I pump the bulb that fuel isn’t making it all the way to the top carb to fully...
It’s almost as if the carbs get loaded up while the motor is tilted while trailering and it takes the first blast off to get them cleared and running good. Runs flawlessly after that first crappy...
Yep! I pump it up and it it starts right up. I idle out of the no wake zone for 5 min and it just stumbles and slowly gains speed until on plane. After that not problems all day. Boat comes out the...
Hey guys, I have a 2004 90hp Mercury. It starts right up and I let it warm up for about 5 min. On the first blast off of the day it stumbles and struggles to get on plane. After that it holeshots...
Yea xpress doesn't have great customer service. I had to call a few times and email to get some information. I have an h51db with a camo bench seat that i want to change to two camo bass bucket...
Mine is a 2004 h51db. It’s the camo uncarpeted version of the h51. The console is just so flexible. Feels like it’s going to break when I turn the wheel. It’s a very thin fiberglass console.
Glad I read those options. A lot better than the ideas i came up with. I thought about fiberglassing the inside of the console to make it thicker or putting some kind of bracing. But concrete, stucco...
Those are some pretty good options. I’ll take those ideas into consideration. I’m glad I talked to y’all cuz I was stumped for a while. Now I can see that there is hope.
You guys are crazy! Quickcrete won’t work. You need to stucco the bottom part down then brick the whole outside of the console.
Oh that’s a great idea! I’ll go get some quickcrete tomorrow!
You should cover the whole thing in concrete! That will make it stronger!
Yea I’m sure I’ll get it figured out. My problem now is that the console feels so weak and flemsy. It flexes when you turn the wheel. I even added hydraulic steering to it to help on console stress....
When I first got the boat it had one battery and I was running 51 mph with no tach and hit 51 mph (gps). I added a new tach and two more batteries. At 5500 (tach) I was running 43 mph so I suspected...
Yea 51 was was by myself without tournament load. I’m sure I can get close to that now if I’m by myself running light. And I still haven’t got my prop to pad dialed in just right so it has a little...
Turns out the tach was way off. Even on the right setting it was 700 rpm off at WOT. Now 47mph with full love well and second person.
Put a 22p laser 2 on it. And turns out the tach was was way off. Now running 47 with a second person and full live well. Haven’t run it light yet so we will see.
Have a 2004 h51db with side console. anyone have problems with the console flexing? any way to re-enforce it to make it stronger?
I just talked to xpress today about replacement parts for my 2004 h51db. Basically they said send me a picture of what you want to replace and we will see if we have anything that will work. I don’t...
Anyone have experience hooking up a digital tiny tach on the 3 cylinder 90hp? Does it make a difference what spark plug wire it is hooked to? Trying to verify my faria tachometer that seems to be...
Have an 04 xpress h51db with 03 Mercury 90hp and 22p powertech prop. It’s WOT max is 5500. I replaced a broken gauge with a new faria 7000 rpm gauge. It is reading 6000 plus at WOT. I contacted...
About 5500. It didn’t drop the rpm much from adding the batteries. Just got slower. It’s like the stern is dragging instead of hopping up on the pad. Still gets on plane quick and rides good, just...
Have an 04 h51db with an 03 Mercury 90hp 2 stroke. Has 6 inch jackplate, 22p powertech prop, prop shaft 5” below pad, 5500 wot. Was running 51 mph gps then added two more batteries and speed dropped...
Yea I know it’s going to slip some. I just seems like a huge loss in speed for a couple batteries. That’s almost a 20% loss in speed. Someone suggested maybe trying a 4 blade trophy. May get a little...
