Ok, I have a female plug in for my trolling motor on the bow of my boat.
It is a three prong plug.
I know where to buy one, but the guy said that I can fry the trolling motor if I don't test the holes because the plug they sell has three wires and the trolling motor itself only has two wires...
I have an older (10 years old) Minn Kota Endura. I need to turn it into a bow mount tiller motor. I know that on newer trolling motors there is a set screw you can loosen to rotate the head and turn a transom mount into a bow mount. Can you do it with an older endura??

Hi all,
I am trying to find a bow mount electric trolling motor bracket for my sun dolphin pro 120. I havde the older style boat that did not come with the preformed lip at the bow to mount a motor for those of you who are familiar. I...
Does iboats offer a rewind starter pinion gear for my 1973 sportwin 9.5? I couldn't find it in the marine store. Part number is 384597. I can order it elsewhere but would rather order it through iboats.
Thanks
Hi all, I have just acquired (free) an early 80's Johnson 9.9. I picked this motor up from a guy that had no use for it. When I arrive to pick up the motor he was adimant about showing me how well it started up. He had the motor hangin off of a pair of horses. He dribbled some gas in the...
Well I started the 1973 9.5 sportwin that I bought and the thing fired right up!! Purred like a kitten. My question is...will the water escape the power head completely when i shut the motor down so it doesn't freeze and cause any cracks while it sits in my garage until spring?
Hi all, How is the quality of these tohatsu 9.9 outboards. I see on the website "onlineoutboards.com" that the 9.9 has all of the same features as the 8 hp but extras like a bigger prop etc. Does the 8 and 9.9 put out the same power?
First of all I want to give a big thanks to everyone that guided me to installing a water pump on my 1973 evinrude sportwin 9.5. I got the lower unit off with ease thanks to your help. I did not realize that the water pump fit so tight inside the housing, its almost impossible to turn by hand...
Ok I have searched the forum and I may be a little confused. Should I remove the powerhead on my 73 sportwin 9.5 to make it easier to remove the lower unit? Because the lower unit is stuck and from what I understand it could be due to the water pipe being stuck in the rubber bushing at the...
I am trying to pull the lower unit to change the impeller. I am able to pull the lower unit down about 1 inch before it stops sliding down. I called a boat mechanic and he said that I may need to pull the engine out to loosen the shaft. Does this motor require that? What am I missing? 1973...
I have previously spoken with some of you regarding my newly acquired 1973 sportwin 9.5 The gas tank I have was used on an early nineties Johnson and the fuel line fitting does not match what the Evinrude needs. I looked at iboats parts and didn't see one. Where do I get this fitting?
Hello, I'm going to take a look at an evinrude 9.5 outboard that looks like it is in its early 70's. It has that low profile look to it. The motor has been in this old guy's basement for 15 years. What should I be looking for when I give this motor the once over. Are there any tell tale...
Hi I have an older West Bend 7.5 horse and the gas line fitting on the bootom of the motor does not look familiar to me. Is this an old fitting that they don't use anymore? The gas line connector that I have is just a basic female end fitting that will not fit what is on this motor. Anybody...
I have just acquired an old (probably early 60's) West Bend 7.5 horse outboard motor, it is white in color. It looks very clean and all of the knobs are there and they move. The motor turns over fine. I could not find any serial number on the motor to give me the year or to help whoever is...
