    Tell-tale w/ a pressure gauge?

    1990 1208x90B Force 120. A while back I added a pressure and temperature gauge to help monitor my motor. I just stumbled across the threads for adding a tell-tale, but with a well functioning pressure gauge is this even necessary? Would it mess up my readings on my gauge? The gauge works...

    Force 120, no spark on #1...running out of places to look

    Hello all. I have a 1208x90B 120hp (4 blue coils and 2 blue CDI packs) Force on my 1990 Bayliner Cobra dual console. I had it out about 2 weeks ago for the first time this season and it was running great, then suddenly lost power and sounded like it was missing on a cylinder. Started pulling...

    120hp Force slow tilt/trim issues

    I found the little piece that goes inside the drain plug and it is mangled. Looks like whoever had it apart last wasn't careful with it, and I think it was sitting just right so that it worked properly. There is no way to get that to work. Now the question. Is there a source for parts for...

    MG removable plate

    Well, I picked up my new in box power gator mount today. It works great and I can't wait to get it mounted. I'd like to mount it on MG's removable mounting plate, but want to make sure it is big enough to fit this motor before I order. I can't find anything on the net stating the overall...

    Motorguide Power Gator?

    I have a 1990 Bayliner Cobra dual console bass boat. The current trolling motor is a MG Pro Series 43lb which I have shortened the shaft on to fit in the original stowable mount. It takes a fair amount of time to get the trolling motor back below the deck whenever I want to move the boat, and...
