I couldn’t seem to find this and don’t have the service manual yet. (Ordered) Is there an impeller replacement guide somewhere? Maybe with part numbers.
Oh thats weird, when I use my laptop the link worked and I found it, thanks.
So looks like they removed the inline fuel filter on mine cause there isnt one under the cowl!
I gotta say that makes me feel much better. I checked the compression before I bought it and it looks like it’s been kept up. I do have to wire brush some bolt heads and repaint some areas but I think I just need to learn the boat. Having a lot of anxiety after our last boating mishap 10 years ago.
They don’t have my owners manual posted online. I have to order a hard copy. I referenced another manual link but only place I could see a fuel filter in the book is under the engine cowl but mine doesn’t have one there. The info I found when looking up my serial number shows an option for...
Thank you for the info. I followed procedure yes, found it online. I read someone else had same issue and after replacing everything finally figured out it was weak stator. Getting a plug gap tester soon but might just drop off at mechanic and for once just pay someone so I can just enjoy it. :)...

My assumption and preference...

The other side seems to be very solid other than...
So I'm doing a remodel on my Four Winns bowrider and had a couple of questions..
I am putting in a 4 way ignition switch so it requires it to be on ACC before switches will work.. before they were wired hot. !Anything wrong with doing it that way? Also i was thinking I should wire the bilge hot...
I have the steering wheel off in my 87 Four Winns (non power steering) and need to take off the cable and base just so I can get the plywood piece so I can redo the skin on it. If I remove the cable and all from under the column is there any adjustments I'll have to do afterward? I don't want to...
I'm redoing my used Four Winns 1987 Horizon 170 boat I bought a year ago and I'm not sure on some of the stuff in the boat already. I have a Hummingbird 300TX and a Lowrance 3100 (old 80's version)... I dont see any reason the keep the Lowrance 3100, the screen is pretty weathered and the...
