    12V Power on/off

    On page 70 of your owners manual. "The 12 Volt power outlets and 5 Volt (2.5 Amp) USB port (Charge Only) have a cap attached to the outlet indicating “12 V DC”, together with either a key symbol, battery symbol, or USB symbol. A key symbol indicates that the key must be in the ON/RUN or ACC...

    Jerry hasn't been here in 6 years, and frank died several years ago. You need to start a new thread of your own, and be as detailed as possible as to what you are working on, and what the issues are.

    Mercury Outboard with water coming from shift shaft area

    Absolutely normal. All motors will do that, especially on muffs where you are using garden hose water pressure to pump an abnormal amount of water through the system. This IS NOT any indication of whether your water pump is actually working, as the water is being forced by the garden hose...

    Minty clean 1974 Mercury 9.8hp value?

    I guess I spend a week of vacation hauling 9 motors to NJ. As for the Merc, it may be a "maker" ignition, just the opposite of a breaker system. They only made them for a couple years. Makes me wonder why? No it doesn't, mine has't run right since about 1990 and no one will work on it. Most...

    Starcraft on C-list/ebay!

    On a related note, I just saw a boat on Craigslist that I sold 7 years ago. Oh my, did they trash it. Ripped out the new seats, and bases. Tore the console to carp. Windshield - gone. Destroyed the new floor - somehow, looks like they hauled a car engine in it. Threw it onto a different...

    Why don't I see more jet motors?

    No motors because no parts, many of which come from china. China has no workers in factories because of covid, they have had many many more deaths than they have admitted to. Same goes for riding lawn mowers. You can buy a $3,000-$9,000 mower, but try buying a smaller one, say a cub cadet, troy...

    Why don't I see more jet motors?

    Oh good luck with that one kid. You really think its just that easy to get a deal on an outboard. Order it from singapore ?? And hope you get it? Jets loose 1/3 of their power, so it will be like a 15 hp motor. Plus, control and maneuverability are poor. You have to be powered up to steer...

    Spark plug wire resistance. 75hp

    Should be pure copper , non resistance plug wires. NOT high resistance auto wires. I sounds like you have the correct wires. If you use high resistance auto type wires, you will destroy your ignition components.

    1989force outboard not firing on all cylinders

    Welcome to iboats Poorman. ( aren't we all?) Gonna guess you have a bad cd module, with no output to the bottom cylinder. The good news, is that each of the 2 cd modules has 2 outputs, and you only need 3 of them for your 3 cylinder engine. You can try the unused output. Or you can swap the 2...

    90 Force 90 HP....water pump?

    clattin, your video link is broken, at least for me. I haven't seen a 1990-1992 Force with a traditional telltale water stream like the one shown in ninny's video. This is what you should be seeing.: The water dribbles or splatters out of the exhaust relief holes on the back of the...

    3M 5200 and Aluminum...

    I see 1 guy on that forum that has this claim, and some 1500 saying to use 5200. I think the guy sells boat life caulk, which has got to be the worst crud I have ever tried to apply.
