I have a Mercury Sportjet 240 M2 engine in my shop with one scuffed piston that needs to be replaced. I cannot find an oversize piston in the parts lookup or in the Sierra catalog. Do you look this up under one of the outboard powerhead part catalogs and if so which would be the correct one...

I was considering purchasing a jet drive boat to use on the Cape Fear River here in NC. The river is quite rocky when low. It would also be used in the tidal marshes to get to the good flounder fishing and duck hunting. What do you think is the better choice, an inboard jet drive or the outboard...

I have been working on a 1987 3.0 liter Mercruiser with an Alpha One outdrive. I installed a new forward gear and clutchdog about 2 weeks ago. The owner came back with the boat claiming that it was still jumping out of gear. Lake test revealed that it was not jumping out of gear but rpms would...
I am working on a Mercury 4 cylinder 40 HP on a Tracker aluminum bass boat. It is a 1995 model. I just finished rebuilding the engine and it has been run about 8 hours now so I know the issue is not truly overheat. The overheat horn comes on as soon as the key is turned to the on position. It is...
Can someone give me the wire colors and DVA voltage outputs for a 1998 Arctic Cat-Tigershark TS770. The Stator and CDI are 500.00+ and I don't want to make a mistake.
Rebuilding carbs on inline 6 cylinder distributor ignition with backdrag carbs. Model 900 90HP. I have done everything the manuals address concerning the floats and needles and seats and still cannot get the middle and bottom carb to stop flooding gas when squeezing the primer bulb. Are there...
I have a 50 HP Force (US Marine) attached to a 1989 Playbuoy pontoon. The serial number tag on the clamp bracket is missing and I can't find a block number on a welch plug like most other engines. How can I identify this for parts lookup?
I'm working on a Johnson 115 HP 2000 year model.<br />Model # J115PLSSB<br /><br />The complaint was hard to start. Spark and compression test were good. Appears to be mostly oil coming from carb throats. This engine has the platic carbs and the optical ignition.<br />What should I suspect VRO...

One of the first things that everybody advises when trying to prop a boat is to use a known good shop tach. The only kind I know of that would allow one person to see from the helm while operating is a tach with long leads like you would see on the instrument guages. Any ideas on the subject...
I found a new website for parts if anyone is interested, WWW.ISHOPMARINE.COM<br /><br />They have some parts lookup capability for those of us that don't have a dealership or microfiche.<br />Site can be a little tricky to navigate. I ordered some parts and they were here in 2 days, the...
