Didn't realize bringing back an old post was bad form, for real. I'll have to be more careful where I ask for help I guess? I did not realize that I was supposed to start a whole new thread for a...

You're point?

A new problem posted to a post that is close to the same from who cares from when. I guess we should have the Admins delete all threads that are a certain period old because they...

I did, with two other batteries, both also brand new and fully charged. Got the same result, just a single click and nothing else.

I just ordered a new starter so hopefully that solves the...

My connections are all correct and 100% secured and cleaned. The battery is a brand new and have a full charge on them all, checked with a multimeter as well. All I get is a click from the solenoid....

So what did your original problem end up being? I am experiencing a similar issue which is why I am curious.

*Update*

So when in doubt, take it to a boat mechanic. As it turns out, I had a few different problems going on at once.

1. Right away he said the motor was getting way too hot, too fast. He...

So I was finishing up the fishing season last year and while on plane, the motor suddenly seemed to go out of gear and revved up. An alarm sounded as well. I immediately shut it down and tried...

Then what if I can isolate a wire? Electrical is not my Forte, but I can fix anything with some guidance. Thanks for answering as always!

When I bought the boat it had three batteries. One for cranking, one for accessories and the other for the trolling motor. The current trolling motor is only 12 V. I figured I just wanted to add...

If I was to ditch a battery, why would I still need a 4 bank charger if I only have 3 batteries and already have a 3 bank charger? Not trying to sound like a wise guy, but what am I missing there?

I currently have a 3 bank charger. I want to add another battery and run a 24 volt trolling motor now. I will be running the two batteries in series and the other two regularly on their own. My...

You're right, no flanges on my axles. Guess I'll have to find flanges now and then gonna be a pain to find someone local to weld them on. Fun stuff, always something ��

Not in a position to do that, but thanks.

Good info, thanks!

Was gonna say surge brakes too. How much do you think (ballbark) it would cost to have done? Thanks for your answers!

So I have a 1990 Ranger Trail trailer that does not have brakes. I would like to add electric brakes on if possible to make it easier to stop obviously while Towing. Is this something that can be...

I DID change the plugs the past off season and was moving wires around a little. I'll check it out, thanks!

No change. Still getting solid alarm at 2000 rpms. Alarm stops if I back off the throttle. Anyone ever experience this??

I get a solid alarm at exactly 2000 rpms and the motor slows down automatically. The alarms goes off immediately when I back off the throttle. The engine does this every single time I hit the 2000...

This JUST happened to me. I have a 1989 Ranger 361v with a 1991 Johnson 150 FastStrike, so I switched back over tanks and put some fresh gas in the original tank I was drawing fuel from. I'll update...

Yeah, turns out they sent the wrong hub kit. I'll do a follow-up post with the results of the new install.

Still fairly new to the boating world and I bought the Solas Rubex NS3 prop. The thrush Washer that came with the hub kit does not fit down the shaft as far as the old old does. This causes the prop...

I stand corrected as I am reminded that the tach WAS NOT working prior to my bypassing the pump after a call to the mechanic. Senior moment, sorry. Probably makes more sense now to you all. The tach...

Yeah I know. The ones I had on there were falling apart, so I threw those on to hold it all together AFTER the fact.

Yes, tach was working.
