Hello all,
I recently got a 1994 Astro 18dcx with a 1994 Mercury 150 xri in the back. The capacity plate is almost completely faded and illegible. If anybody has the same boat would you mind sharing...
Looks like the new switch boxes did the trick ! I went ahead and replaced both of them and it is amazing the difference in the motor. I was able to take it out yesterday evening for the first time...
It was a bit of a pain but switching the boxes switched the spark to the other side ! Looks like a bad switch box. I’ll put a couple on order and report back if that did the whole trick.
Yes there are two power packs on the starboard side of the motor. They are stacked just like you described. I’m am going to switch the wires this evening and hope that may be the issue as it seems a...
New measurements came back at:
Red and blue = 7.3 M Ohms
r/w and b/w = 8 M Ohms
red and ground = 111 ohms
r/w and ground = 9.7 M ohms
Do any of these results seem realistic ?
thanks again
Was finally able to get out to the boat. The red to red/white tested out at 222 ohms. The blue to blue/white tested out at
7.2 K Ohms. I’m guessing this means the stator ? And if so that blue means...

I recently moved back down near Claytor Lake. I am looking to get back into some tournament fishing and was wondering what trails might go out of or include Claytor in their schedule. Thanks in...
For really gnarly stains like that rust looking one, I know it sounds crazy, but carb cleaner can do the trick. I'd just spot test it first since not all carpets are the same. Also, the soap that...
Thanks for the input guys. Any body else have an opinion on it ?
I'm looking into getting a 2014 RT 188 and was hoping you all could give me some opinions on what it should be worth
Like I said it is a 2014 with the following accessories:
115 Merc Pro XS with...
My fishing partner had the same problem with his RT 188. He did a couple things to his and has yet to have another problem. First he painted the underside of all of his lids black. Somehow this helps...
So after traveling 10 hours to compete in the Boat U.S. Cabelas Collegiate Championship tournament, my 1988 motor decided to go out on me half way through practice today. I took it to the onsite...
