Fished it 2 weeks ago in tourney. Spinnerbaits at the main cut worked good early and mid day. Caught sandies too but bass were there. Flippin brush and shallow running crankbait then c-rig points....

Scenario was carb spitting back towards boat which initially I thought might be a stuck float on the #5 carb.
Solution: Rebuilt the carb, still spitting - possible reed problems - changed the...

Will do. I've been looking for reeds just in case that's the problem and have noticed Boyesen has a set for around 200. Dumb question time!!! Do I need that one set for the engine or please tell me I...

Hello again,
what setting should i set the pull/rev on my tach for a 1995 johnson 225?

Thanks in advance

What is the proper beak procedue with the new powerhead? I'm handling the rebuild myself.

Will do.
Thanks again

Well the rebuild is almost complete on the Johnson 225 powerhead. I was told to use regular 2-stroke oil instead of semi-synthetic to seat the rings.

Input please????

Thanks,

Evening,

How is everyone doing? I hope all is well after the recent rains and floods. I have recently had my block reworked by Dwayne at Texas Machine Works and what an awesome job they did. Very...

Hello everyone,
I'm in the process of rebuilding my 1995 Johnson J225STLEOB and while doing so I was curious if I should replace the recifier and power pack as well? I know Mallory makes great auto...

Hello,
I am working on a Yamaha 15 mshx engine. I have put a new carb kit in and I'm not real sure how many turns the idle screw should be turned out. The engine starts but has a hard time idling...

When I bought the boat in 2006 it had not been decarbed from my understanding in quiet a while. I did decarb at least once a year and twice in 2008. The engine had a lean sneeze at idle when i...

Evening all,
I hope everyone is well and enjoying the rain.
I am in need of a ton of help please. I am looking for a outboard machine shop to work on my 1995 Johnson that lost the #2 piston and...

Hello again everyone,
It's been a while since I've posted and checked in to see whats going on. My fault I know, but here goes. My Johnson 225STLEOB lost the #2 piston and cylinder recently and I...

Thanks Champ,

Will do, It really worried me when I saw the gauges acting up. I just replaced the rectifier in the spring of 2006 and was hoping it would be a simple fix insted of majpr expense.

Need help

Morning,

Not real sure what going on with it, but here we go. I look down at the gauges before starting the motor and notice that the voltage gauge is setting between 9-12, so I hit the starter...

Buddy of mine has a 1996 201 with dual tanks and he is curious to know how big the tanks are?

Thanks in advance for your help.

I'll try that in the a.m. I hope I can get it to work due to me already taking the steering wheel and helms off the boat.

Thanks once again to the BBC members

I run mine between 5500-5800 rpm's

It has the pull pins, I've pulled the pins but the cables just will not slide out.

Thanks,

I have the rotary style helms and where the cables connect to the helm there doesn't appear to be a way to get the cables out without drilling out the fasteners and going back with small bolts. Make...

Well the nightmare continues, cables broke Sat. as I pulled up to the ramp. I have taken the old cables out of the boat and I'm not sure how to get the cables out of the helms. I know it would be...

I have the same boat you have with a 95' Venom 225, it's an awesome boat to fish out of. It is a little heavier than todays second mortgage boats, but it will take the big waves just as well as they...

I would like in on this deal if possible. Have the money burning a hole in the ole' pocket.
