When I added extra electronics last year I installed a battery over 1000 also. But for years previous I ran a smaller battery and no problems. You may want to have that battery tested and also...

You might try posting this in the triton section below or the prop section above. Make sure you list S/N of the motor, if there is a jack plate and what it is, prop to pad on the boat. I dialed my...
I set up an ice shuttle this winter and they do make a shorter network adapter cable (small female to large) 010-12531-10. I had to call customer service for another question and the service rep...
I had a similar issue that showed up when I would turn up the radio too loud. Over time the connections just got some corrosion and weakend the circuit causing voltage loss. I installed a fuse...
Leon, what do you consider substantially higher octane? The only available non ethanol fuel locally is 91 octane. I am guessing it is OK but I like to be sure. Thanks.
Thanks for the advice. Maybe I will take an early season run before I change the impeller to see where I am at and go from there.
I am using a dial style water pressure guage not analog but I do not remember what it was at 2500 to 3500. It was above 12 WOT, I was thinking around 15. When I tried to raise the motor up to 3.5"...
I did a bunch of prop testing last year and ended up at 4" prop to pad. maybe I will get the plates to funnel the water in. lift is a problem but I have a new prop coming that has been worked.
I used the blue can weldwood 4-5 years ago and have had no issues with my carpet yet.
Not sure on this but when running in the mid RPM range (2500 - 3500 approximately) my motor temp gets into the 180 - 190 range. If I slow down or get up and go it cools back down to the 145 degree...
I really dislike the back and forth email game. I would send pictures and all the information you can think he would need in one email then ask him to call you. Then if he needs more you can send...
I Put a Force on my boat last year and like all the features but too have had some anchor issues of not being as accurate. I think a good part of my problem is all my maps and GPS source from my...
I did the small hole with clip trick to mine. Cheap easy insurance in my opinion.
Just my 2 cents but those are pretty pricey graphs and I would want to protect the glass from breakage. Last I knew you can't get replacement glass so some sort of protection could be a cheap...
You can do it. It just takes time and patience. When its real hazy its a 2 or 3 step process by the time you wet sand, then 1 or 2 steps of buffing compound then wax. Avoid wet sanding if possible...
Just make sure you are tighteneing the side bolts to the right torque after each adjustment. I have had one for a season and adjusted alot when prop testing. Never had a problem.
Thanks so much guys!
Winterized the boat this weekend and found some metal on the magnetic plug to the lower unit. I don't really remember seeing much in the past but never used to pay as much attention as now. Is this...
1st make sure your motor is healthy and working correctly then you need to got down in pitch versus up like you did. There is also prop to pad measurement to consider. every boat and motor...
I ordered the all weather adhesive on amazon, What would happen if you tried that? Does Amazon know New York banned it. It would probably come in a box and no one would be the wiser.
Make sure to buy a Mercury OEM manual (not aftermarket) if you are going to do any work on it. It will lay everything out step by step and gives torque values for most everything needed like spark...
Found a 1996 200 EFI that's advertised as everything was working when he put a rod thru the block. He wants $1500 and I have to pick it up (2 states away) is this a fair price? Are blocks hard to...
After working on my boat, motor, and the setup I realized its a bit therapeutic and am toying with the idea of trying to locate a broke down 200HP 2 stroke. Was wondering what would you guys...
I had an issue with starting while moving between fishing holes a couple years back. Ended up being a piece of leaf debris in the bilge fuel filter/water separator. Make sure you do not overlook the...
I went to the GT36/GT8 combo and it works really well. I was actually able to tuck the GT36 up underneath and protect it a little too.531833
