Lately my 2001 OX66 has been giving me fits with idle. It starts up first thing and idles around 1200 then drops to around 800 or so when it warms up. I put it in gear, drive off the trailer, and...

I took it apart as far as it would come apart. The Live units are built differently than previous models. The screen itself doesn’t appear to be removable. I dried it in 100 degree sun all day then I...
They did offer a trade in but for $1400 the new units don’t offer much of an upgrade. For me anyway. I suppose I’ll sell my defective Live unit for what I can get for it and unload my Carbon 12 also....

I just got my HDS 12 Live back from Lowrance. I have a cracked back housing and water got inside the unit. It still works but there are blotches on the screen behind the glass. They said it couldn’t...
I have a 2001 296TF that I’ve had for years. Great boat. I was thinking of getting a new boat but I refuse to pay what they’re asking nowadays. So I may just re-power my 296. I’m just curious about...
I ended up replacing the fuse block under the dash. The fuses didn’t fit well. Really loose fit for some of them. Plus it had corrosion in several of places. So far so good. Everything works as it...
Thank guys! I just saw that I had responses to my post. Never got an email notification. I’ll check those places out.
I’ve had my Charger 296 for going on 14 years. When I got her she had approximately 25 hrs on it and this problem has been driving me crazy since I got it. The trim switch on the bow panel. Sometimes...

I’m looking to upgrade from the single axle trailer that came with boat to a tandem axle. I live in east Texas and Charger boats, parts, accessories, etc are like unicorns don here. Where would be...
I think I may have figured it out. That freakin o-ring that goes on top fuel pump outlet fell off and I didn’t see until I was cleaning up. I’ll re-install the pump and stuff tomorrow and hope for...
I’ve just had my injectors cleaned and flow tested and done all the standard maintenance (vst, O2 sensor, lp pumps fuel pressure regulator screen, etc). The regulator screen was really really bad....
Thanks!
Does anyone know of a board sponsor that does fuel injector service for a 2001 OX66 200? It’s been eight years and they need some love. Thanks!

New plugs and the erratic idle is still there. I don’t know what else to check
The low pressure pumps and the O2 sensor are brand new work one trip on them. The plugs I need are BR8HS-10 according to NGK. That’s what I’ve been running. But I’ve also ran BR9HS-10 and B7HS plugs...
This is a 2001 VX200TLRZ. This thing runs great most of the time. Starts up cold and idles great. It does big down when I initially hit the gas but gets out of that fairly quickly. Runs great at wot....
I hate to wake up such an old thread but I need some help. I have a 2001 200 OX66. I did this conversion using instructions from a guy that I know. The motor started and idled great. I ran about 200...
Yeah we’re in the same boat. No pun intended. I may just hang onto the ol girl. She’s been good to me and I haven’t had a boat payment in years. I kinda like keeping my money in my wife’s purse.
Sorry I forgot to mention that. It’s a 2001 with. Yamaha OX66 200. I will say that the more I look at boats and what they cost the sweeter my boat looks. Lol. But she does look almost as good as new...
I’m about sell my beloved Charger after 15 years of ownership. Pretty sad to see her go but I ain’t getting any younger and if I’m gonna ever buy a new boat now is the time. However, I have no idea...
Thanks a million!
I had to have my bunks recarpeted a couple of years ago and they’re already needing it again. I think I’m going to go with a different style of bunk this time. Ultimate Bunk Boards is the name....
