I've had my motor for 20+ yrs and never notice this plate. I was going to change the impeller and notice a loose screw hanging right above the prop. I looked it up on the net and seen the plate was missing. No idea if it was ever there when I bought it 20+yrs ago. I did have the impeller replace...
I use 2 small 12v sealed batteries(vexilar flasher type) for my 2 garmin Fish finders. I take both FF and bats out so I connect them evertime I go fishing. I've had to fix the terminals a few times. The wires are so small(20g or smaller) they fray and break at the f1 terminal. Thinking of...
Not my day. Spent 2 days building a platform for my late model Minn Kota TM and may have ruined it. Hopeing there may be a reset or fuse but from memory I don't remember seeing a fuse when I took it apart. Long story short its a mid 1990's 812 auto pilot TM. Paid $25 years ago and never could...
I been searching the net 2-3 days for the best gear lub to use on my 50 yr old Merc 200 20hp. Found some input here and other sites/forum. I don't know when synthetic oil was first made but I was thinking older vintage motors like mine real oil might be best for them instead of synthetic.

I know to set on 200ohms to check the primary, I got a zero reading which means the primary is good but testing the secondary I'm confused about.
Ive spent all day and night searching the net and youtube for what setting on my multimeter to use to test the secondary. Some say set on 2k and I...
This summer I bought a new MK 40thrust and with the help of some members on another post I got my used bow mount MK running. If I had gotten the Bow mount running this summer I would not have bought the transom one. So now I have 2 and I'm wondering if I can run both(at same time or separately)...
I've searched the net with no luck on its voltage. MK site doesn't have any info on it its too old. From little info I have found I think its a late 1990's model and not sure if it runs on 24 or 12. No where is it labeled 24v or 12v. From what I read even if I found the voltage the foot pedal...
My 68 Merc started missing a month ago, its seems to be getting worse each time I go out. Both plugs have spark but I changed them anyway and replace fuel line from tank to engine. Didn't replace the ball hand pump.
Trying to avoid having to pop the flywheel off I did one last test, Pulled one...
I have a 1968 Merc 20hp 200twin, think its the short shaft model.
I have had it for yrs and no major problems. I was going into a shallow area with lots of weeds so I tilted it up so it would not drag thru the weeds or hit bottom.
When I left the shallows I let it back down and it fired right...
