Yes I do have a compressor. What I should have stated in the first remarks is that we ran the boat the weekend after the mishap on the sandbar with no issues. Only thing is that I honestly cannot remember if the telltail was passing water or not. It was noticed 2 weeks after the mishap when my...
I have a 2003 f90 4stroke outboard. We noticed last weekend that there is nothing coming out of the telltail .New water pump beginning of the season and pumped great with a strong tell tail. I am thinking something is clogged because 2 weeks ago we were blown onto a sanbar hard and took awhile...
ok I inherited a 2013 20’ Bennington pontoon boat with a 2013 Yamaha 90 hp 4 stroke in it. It came with a 13 pitch prop. Does that sound correct? It has a great hole shot but not a lot of top end. I can’t go much over half throttle with out the motor over revving or cavitation. I check for a...
Ok here it goes. My brother inlaw bought a 17' bow rider with a 85 hp force on the back. They took it out and with 2 people on board it will only turn 4000 rpm. I'm thinking it should run more like 5500 rpm , right? I'm not there so I'm unsure of the prop size . My question is will any other...
I recently bought a new to me 2013 Yamaha 90 hp 4 stroke. This is my first 4stroke outboard and I want it to last and be as trouble free as possible. What should I be putting it my gas with each fill up on these newer motors? I run this motor every weekend so it see plenty of fresh gas but...
I bought a 2013 Bennington 20' pontoon boat with a 2013 Yamaha 90 4stroke on the back from my inlaws. How do I know if the prop is the correct pitch and size. When running at 4500rpm it runs and pulls great but if I bump it up to 5000 rpm or more it acts like it starts to cavatate. The rpm's go...
Ok, my outboard is a 2002 Johnson 70 hp on a pontoon boat. Now the question. Is there supposed to be some sort of a limit switch on the tilt / trim? I have one switch on the remote so when I'm running and trim up it can actually trim itself right out of the water. Is this the way it's designed...
Any ideas on the best ladder/ramp for a pontoon? The ones that like cabelas sell attach to the rear ladder with brackets. Don't REALY want to attach there because we also use that ladder for people. Not sure what my options are here. Ideally would like something that attaches quickly and easily...
1999 Johnson 90 hp. Motor ran great all weekend . Sunday took it out and ran wot for about a mile and then it just died like running out of gas. tried to start it and it would fire and die, fire and die. then I checked the primer bulb, and it felt about half full so I pumped it up and then it...
Not sure I'm posting to the right section but, I have a new to me pontoon this year and the fuel gauge does not work. I'm not new to boat but my electrical trouble shooting stinks. Can someone explain to me where to start. Not sure if its the guage, sending unit or somewhere in between. The toon...
