My son's 1996 3 cylinder 60HP will occasionally do nothing when he tries to start it, no clicks or anything. If he taps, not hard, the plastic electrical cover it will start. I removed the cover and saw no signs of a bad connection. The cable from the relay to the starter had been replaced at...
2003 250HPDI, blew #2 cylinder at 503 hours. The price when I bought the boat was low enough to justify another PH in the future, and more. My yard got a rebuilt PH from large well respected company that only sells to dealers. All the oiling upgrades were done before I bought it. I went over...
I have twin 2003 HPDI's. Manufacture dates are 12/02 and 1/03. The engines had 450 hours when I bought the boat. One had 40 hours on a new power head replaced by a Yamaha dealer. At 500 hours I lost a cylinder in the other engine and am having my mechanic install a reman power head from Outboard...
Where on the engine is the part number to determine if a 9.9 has been modified to a 18 HP engine? I want to be able to determine if a 9.9 has has the power head replaced with an 18 HP power head.
Thanks in advance.
I do not know the service history on this boat as it is new to me. Boat ran for about 12 hours then would not plane (we were on vacation). As it starts to go bow up it reduces RPM's but doesn't die.
Replaced LP pumps, clean VST but it wasn't very dirty. Replaced Racor, cleaned filter inside the...
How many turns out from bottom should the adjustment screw be on the carb? What does this adjust?
Also before even fooling with the screw the engine would only crank and run for a short time if the throttle is wide open. Now it will only act like it wants to start but will not only if the...
I am very interested in a boat with the above engine. All I know is that it has 230 hours, the computer and oil pump have been replaced and the seller has been happy with the performance. The boat was bought in February of 2002 so I will assume it is a late 2001 engine.
If this engine is still...
A couple of months ago I took the carb apart because no fuel was getting to the bowl, I opened the bowl drain and only a few drops came out. The inside was very clean, no build up and the float looked really good with no sticking. I did not see any trash that may have caused a plugged up hole...
I went down to a 15"x15" prop from a 15"x17" on a 1998 Johnson 150 Ocean Runner on a 21' CC. I also replace the steering mechanism. I now have a lot more pull to the right on the wheel (have to keep counter-clockwise pressure on the wheel). I am assumming it is from the increased torque of the...
I finally found a T-Top at a reasonable price for my 21ft Wellcraft CCF. It was built for another boat and will require some welding. When mounting to the floor, will large screws into the floor, which is wood backed, work or am I just asking for trouble. There is no access from below so i would...
I broke my bimini frame this weekend. There was very bad corrosion under the slide jaws. The canvas is in great shape and the slide jaws and other hardware is stainless and also in good shape. Does anyone know where I can get just the aluminum pipes? It is a 4 bow, 80" wide, 8" high.
Or would i...
I have recently bought a 1998 Wellcraft 21 ' CC with a 150 Johnson Oceanrunner. I have used it a couple of times and am struggling with the opitum RPM's. The prop seems well matched. What is max RPM's and what would be the most efficient cruise RPM's? It seems 3500 sounds good. This is full...
I bought a well kept 1998 21' Wellcraft CC with galvinized Shoreland'r trailer recently. The trailer is in excellent condition except for one thing. On each side rail, about 1 " behind where they are welded to the tongue, there is a rust through on top about 3" long and 1" wide. The weird thing...
