Did some reading, checked all the hoses and cleaned the pulse limiter...my guess is the VRO quit; it runs fine if you keep priming it. Is there something else I could be missing before I just pick...

Well, the sun finally went down so I could get it back out on the water without scorching myself...here's what I found out:

Starts and idles fine. If I reach back and prime the ball until it's...

Here's the scoop (keep in mind it was 90* outside):

The motor ran fine for the quick 5 minute run to get to where I was going. Fished there for about an hour, then decided to make the next 5...

Thanks!

Is there a fuel filter somewhere on these? I picked this up in the spring and figure it might not be a bad idea to change it (since I don't know when it was last changed), provided it even has one...

Working on getting a good pic of the boat...I'm looking to get someone to get one of me running flat out; if I find a good one of it at the ramp, etc, I'll take that as well.

I've learned to leave my good camera...

Will do...it's been rainy but I hope to get the boat in the water tonight...

After working in the parks system for a few years, this is usually considered illegal (if you get caught of course, I don't really agree with that rule)...often, they will confiscate/invalidate the...

I've cleaned her up and made her my own since the first...

Muchas gracias...

Can anyone tell me or point me to a list of what the various warning alarms are for the Evinrudes? I went for a short test run today and right before I got back I got a beep every twenty...

When you're splicing/connecting two wires together and you have a little bit of wire to play with (ie. you're not down to just an inch or two! http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/ohwell.gif ),...

From what I see for other similar outboards, it seems like 5500-5800 is the upper ranges of safe continuous operation---can anyone give me a definitive answer?

I recently picked up a Renegade 4 blade (part # 175738) for my '97 175 Intruder---according to the specs, the prop should fit the V6 gearcase (which my 175 is/has). However, the hub of the prop has...
