    Can anyone confirm the location of the valve pin? I was hoping their was an expert that could give me some confidence to button it up.

    Showa tilt and trim reassembly-2007 F150TXR

    Nope, the valve pin falls into hole #4 so that seem like a no go. Maybe hole #1, that's a nice fit.

    Z150 TXRB running poorly

    I have a 2003 150 HPDI on an 18' Parker CC. I have replaced all the fuel filters and still only get ~4600 rpm wot. It also bogs down a few hundred RPM then surges back up on occasion. All 6 plugs are oily/fouled and it is going through quite a bit of 2 stroke oil. Any insight?

    150 HPDI Prop

    I have a 1999 18' Parker CC that I repowered with a 03 150 hp HPDI (TXRB). WOT is only 4800 rpm with a 15.5 x 17 aluminum prop. (38 mph) I have no shortage of opinions (13.75 x 17 SS) or (15 x 15). Does anyone have this same setup so I only need to re-prop once?

    1999 Johnson Ocean Pro 115

    I'm considering buying this outboard to replace the 1995 Johnson 115 currently on my boat. ( I lost a cylinder). How does the 1999 60 degree block and optical ignition compare to the old school 90 degree flywheel configuration for reliability? I have heard mixed reviews on late 90's OMC engines.

    1999 Parker 1800CC engine

    I bought a 1999 Parker 1800CC with what I thought was the original engine. Turns out it is a 1995 Johnson 115 which just lost a cylinder. What was the original outboard on that boat?

    1999 Johnson 115 vs 1998 115 ocean runner

    I have a 1999 Johnson 115 2 stroke with a dead cylinder. (0 compression, damaged rings) I have a chance to buy a 1998 Johnson 115 Ocean Pro. Would all the wiring and controls work if I was to swap.? What is the difference other than the color (white vs black)?
