Has anyone removed the passenger console in a 2019 215? If so do you have any pics and how much of a pain is it to do so.

Has anyone removed the passenger console in a 2019 215? If so do you have any pics and how much of a pain is it to do so.
Think I may have found the issue. The main diaphragm must have a small hole and catching air. I have gotten a new one (part #:0331307). Is there anything I need to be careful doing when putting...
It is running, I still have to choke it to get on plane once on plane it runs great. Didn’t know if there were a certain amount of turns that the needle valve needed to be set at. I had it at 6...
Now I think I have messed up. I am pretty sure I screwed the needle valve in and back it out 6 turns. I went to the lake and ran it. Of course it is still stalling when giving it throttle. I...
Do you have a diagram of where the idle jets are located? Thanks for all the help.
I have had the motor to 2 shops. We have replaced power pack, rectifier(?), plug wires, new vro pump. Timing has been adjusted.
It will crank up, idle and run just fine on the first run. After...
Thanks for the info. After looking at the motors and the weights. The new 4 stroke pro xs is about 100 lbs heavier, Yamaha sho is 110 lbs heavier and the g2 is 200 lbs heavier.
I am hoping...
I have 1999 r81 sport with a 99 johnson 175. I am thinking of repowering with either a new 4 stroke pro xs or Yamaha sho. I have had one mechanic say that I would not be happy with boat performance...
I pulled the switch off and it is not sticking. I have not taken it a loose on top yet. Plan to do this when I get back to the water. I did find that my oil line at the primer bulb was loose and I...
Everything that I can think of that can be wrong is a fuel delivery issue. Going to check all connections and lines from tank to motor for a leak.
Any ideas??
**update**just replaced the Vro pump tonight and took it to the lake. Boat cranks and idles fine, but still bogs and stalls out when go to give throttle to get on plane. I pushed the choke and got...
Just checked all plug wire at 7/16” gap and had good fire on all 6.
I did not push it the other day at the lake.
I bought a single spark tester today. Planning to test spark hopefully tomorrow.
Could it also be the vro pump going out?
ChampioNman—I did not put the white nylon washer on mine.
When I pulled each plug wire off while it was running, I did not hear a difference in the way it was running. Which I thought was strange.
Should I take all the plug wires off all the plugs, so that the motor will not crank when testing each wire?
How is the best way to do this? I pulled each plug wire off the plug while it was idling. Each plug was popping and sparking from the plug to plug wire when it was close.
Well bad news. Got to the lake and it is still doing the same thing. What will be my next thing to check? Powerpack?
Did a compression test.

Took bowls back off and apart to check everything. I did not have the high...
Boat idles fine, until you put it in gear and have any resistance on it. It will run on regular flush muff out of the water (put in gear and rev slightly with no problem).
Was going to do a...
I fished this morning, boat ran fine to First spot that we fished. After fishing several hours, cranked up to go to next place, boat just dies when go to give it throttle. Very frustrated right...
That made a world of difference. Ran the boat last night and it ran pretty impressive. Still has a slight little studded when you get on the gas, but if you ease into it it picks up and runs great!
Got them and put them in tonight. Now just need time to get to the water.
Will let y’all know the outcome.
Thanks for all your help!!!
I ordered the carb kit #0438996.
