    broke the Tilt N' Trim Switch...

    :facepalm:...on my 1978 Johnson 85hp. I am talking about the switch on the control arm, at the thumb position. the "down" still works fine, but the "up" does not. I believe I pushed it in too far out of frustration and broke something. I still have a working switch on the bow, but that won't...

    Anyone have a love affair with 1978 Chrysler Bass Runners?

    ...just thought I would throw this out there, since all my attempts including the Chrysler Crew(fantastic folks!!!) to find people who like these boats have been feeble.:( So I am just interested to see if any of you are fans of this boat! If not, why? :cool:

    1978 Chrysler Bass Runner 85 trihull -finding out this thing is pretty rare!

    1978 85hp Johnson (Javelin) Trim N' Tilt issue

    I have read in many other threads that if I hear the trim and tilt motor running but the outboard is not going up or down, it's a hydraulic fluid issue most likely. This is my problem. I can hear the motor running, but the engine will not move up or down. To complicate it, I think I might...

    85 HP Javelin outboard throttle issue

    I have an 85 HP Javelin outboard I just bought and it runs awesome. The only issue is when I throttle up, then back off, the arm that the throttle cable attaches to in the engine doesn't back off all the way, so the RPMs are way too high. I can manually push the arm the rest of the way back...
