Went out ocean fishing the other day and all was good until the end of the day. Out of the blue the motor raised itself all the way up and the trim motor kept running. I had to switch off the batteries to stop it. Once it was switched back on I was able to lower the motor and continue only to...
Swapped my piece of crap Force for a 175 Merc. Love the engine. It will push my Trophy 2002WA at 46 MPH on calm water8). I have a new water pressure gage I installed last year for the Force but I can't seem to find anywhere to tap in to use it on the Merc. There must be a plug somewhere on...
I've got the new soleniod (Sierra) and next to the small contacts there is a "1" next to one and an "S" next to the other. The OEM soleniod has no markings that I can tell to distinguish a difference between the two. How does this hookup? The wire from one contact goes to the plug, the other...
My Force 150 finally blew up this year after leaving me stranded 3 times in the last 2 years in the ocean and I picked up a clean low hours 98 carburated Merc 175 this week. I'm getting all the controls, oil tank, etc with the motor. Are there any other issues besides the 40 gals of mixed fuel...

Since I usually don't get answers in the Trophy Forum I'll ask here. I have a 1992 Trophy WA2002 20' and I can't find the spec plate. I need to know the max allowable engine size for the boat. I'm thinking about replacing the blown up 150 Force engine with a 175 Evinrude Salt Water engine but...
I have a 1992 Trophy WA2002 20' and can't seem to find the spec plate on the boat. Can anyone tell me the max engine size for the boat. My POS 150 Force bit the dust the other day and I have a line on a 175 salt water rated Evenrude as a re-power. The shop won't install it unless the boat is...
Went fishing 2 weeks ago and tried again but the motor would not crank over. Changed the starter, removed the plugs still would not crank. Plugs had "goo" on them. Sprayed the inside of all the cylinders with WD40 and after several tries tries got the engine to finally break loose and turn...
My 1992 Force 150 will charge at about 14 volts until the battery seems to reach full charge or when I run for a period of time at higher RPM. Then it creeps up to just under 16V and stays there at higher RPM. I've checked the 12V system when running at higher RPM with both my portable GPS...
