Thanks as always Don. And ya, gonna pull it all back apart later. It's kind of tough verifying the right parts considering the tilt trim unit doesn't align with the engines serial number, lol. Wonder...

Thanks as always Don. And ya, gonna pull it all back apart later. It's kind of tough verifying the right parts considering the tilt trim unit doesn't align with the engines serial number, lol. Wonder...
Also, I am probably going to pull it back off tomorrow and break it down again to see if an o-ring got twisted or something. Is there any issue with just hooking it to a 12 volt power supply on the...

Yes sir, I am aware of that document and have seen it many times now! I guess the confusion comes from Merc mechanics not staying current on the protocols. I also blame myself for not digging further...
Thanks Don, will follow your instruction! I have not ran it since and will not, waiting on Gen1 TM anyway. And ya, after researching the topic it seems there may be quite a few Full-Dressed...
Sorry about that, I started another thread.
Much appreciation to all of you. I think I may have a deal worked out on a rebuilt GEN1 TM, but will probably have the Servicemaster rebuilt as a back up. I kind of wanna see what differences there...

Haha, ya, great song fishinjim! The original "Chicken Ranch" building site is about 5 miles from my farm. Lot's of stories are told by the elder men (who frequented the fine establishment)!
Was wondering if this was ever resolved? I too am in the same exact situation. I had a dressed powerhead installed in Sept. 2019. The Merc dealer, who is a friend of mine and I trust (he sold the...
Thanks basspro57, will talk to him.
Don, do you happen to know what the current part number of the Gen 1 Torquemaster is? Mercury's part schematic has a bunch of revised ones listed but all say NA.
Can you verify it is P# 8M0072952?
Thank you Don!
It is literally pasted and altered slightly Don, lol. Wasn't sure if reviving a year old post was gonna be noticed. :smile: Thanks!

Hello Guys, well the LU in this revived post finally gave up on the Red River this weekend. Was fishing the Bass Champs championship. Ran about 30 miles down river, which was full of debris from...
Hey guys, so if I go with a dressed power head, can anyone verify if the part numbers I would need are:
8M0125790
8M0075819
And any of you BBC sponsored Merc dealers like Joe and Don wanna PM...
Thanks Don,
Holes are on bottom of block, port and starboard side. On the starboard side it actually blew out the check valve fitting for the on board oil tank pressure hose! #5 and #6 bearing...
Superpro, a year if I wait on a ProXs 4 stroke. 12-20 month backorder on repower situations. :ohwell:
Looks like I will be contacting Joe then! Lol. And Gamblinman that's kind of my thoughts too. LMC in Conroe claims to have 3 master mercury certified mechanics on staff but cant shim a lower unit!...
Thanks for the reponses guys. A new dressed power head is definitely tempting. Downside is that my Verado style lower unit is about to go also. :sweating:
I've talked to some shops that are...
Hello All,
2010 BassCat Puma FTD DC
Thank you Don! And ya, I think its pretty worn out. Has quite a bit of endplay and radial play.
Ran motor without lower unit. Exhaust was so loud its hard to tell if it was still making that noise or not. Even with the stethoscope could not really tell.
Can anyone verify if my lower unit is...
Prop shaft mics .94" so I woukd say its a 1" shaft.
