    Advice 0n new chart plotter

    Ok folks, Slow Ride was vandalized and the jerk made off with my stereo, chartplotter, etc..... So I will be looking for new electronics this week and thought I would check to see if you all had any suggestions. I had a Garmin 740s that worked fine but I would like to get something with a...

    Water pump issue?

    I took "Slow Ride" (31' fountain with twin yammy outbaords) out for a ride yesterday and ended up having the port engine over heat. The buzzer went off and I slowed to an idle to check it out. After letting it "rest" at idle the buzzer stopped. I assumed I picked up some grass or something...

    Sounds like the bearing is going out. What do you think?

    I have a 2007 Dodge 2500 4X4, 6.7L Cummings that has an intermittent "squeak" that comes from the driver's side front wheel. It only occurs while the steering is turned (either direction) and then subsides when straightened out. It was really loud a week ago. I was tied up at work and unable...

    2000 Johnson 90hp with Optical Ignition System

    I noticed a change in the way my motor sounds. I have only owned it a few months but I'm almost sure it is quieter when I run it while out of the water. It seens to run normal when on the water but is idling rougher than I remember it being a week or two ago. I noticed that the port side...

    Rough Idle and sounds to quiet!

    Recently purchased a used boat with 2000 Johnson 90HP V4. It ran great for a couple of months but now runs rough at low rpms and has reduced torque and sounds like its running rich but without all the smoke you would expect. When out of the water, the engine is very quiet and it use to be very...
