The batteries are going in a 1990 Astro FDX with Mercury 150 XR4. The charger is a newer Minn Koya three bank that's about 4 yrs old
Do you get agms just for the motor or for everything
I'm getting ready to purchase 3 new batteries for my boat. I am looking at getting two batteries for the trolling motor and electronics and one battery for starting power and another set of...
Awesome, thank you!
I'm getting ready to install a recessed trolling motor tray in my 1990 Quickfire 18FDX, has anyone else done this? It looks like I'm going to have to cut a little bit of the support that encases the...
Hey guys I am in the process of trying to get some shine on my heavily oxidated 1990 Astro Quickfire 18FDX and ran into a small problem this evening. What is the best way to get a sticker off the...
What have you guys done for replacement latches on you compartments, I have found any direct replacements. Thanks
I have thought about having the seats reupholstered but the are in such bad shape that it will be cheaper to just buy new ones.
I am going to start a small restoration on Astro at the beginning of the year and was wondering what if there are any other places to buy seats other then bassboatseats.com? Just looking for other...
So there is no way to get the electric motor off the trim system without removing the entire motor?? What and where is the tri-lobe pin located?
Batteries are good. Checked voltage clear through the solenoid. Wires are internal in the trim motor so I can't check voltage past the solenoid.

Cat19 I sent you a PM with my email address. Thanks
I've got a 1990 Astro Quickfire 18FDX that has a lot of very heavy oxidation. I am planning to wet sand over the winter but my question is; how do you go about getting clear coat or is there even a...
I will do that.
I used a piece of PVC pipe
I do believe I got the seal put back in place. If it's not in place it disappeared because I got the lower unit put back on and everything works great.
It appears I have answered my own question. Apparently Im not the only one with this problem. I found a couple other threads right below the one I started. Thanks
I have a 1990 Mercury 150 on the back of my Astro 18FDX. I took it out for the first time this spring a couple weeks ago and noticed that it was pumping any water. I removed the lower unit and...
Looks Great.
