    Off Topic-Tashasdaddy

    Tas, I see you're in Jacksonville. Have you (or anyone else in the area) ever made the trip to Glenn Silver Springs at Lake George? I stumbled upon that when my boat broke down on a fishing trip about 15 years ago. I was on the lake as a storm was approaching when my boat broke down and a fellow...

    OMC tank

    I have had to clean the carb on my 78 15hp on the 3rd time now for various reasons so in trying to rule out all fuel supply problems I came across Craigs List, 2 OMC 3 gallon tanks. One was Plastic and one was steel. I primarily wanted the plastic tank and it turned out to be almost new...

    Trolling Mtr wear?

    Do trolling motors wear out? Of course they do, but mine has low hours. I would be surprised if it had 50 hrs on it. It's a minnkota 36 lbs thrust.

    '78 johnson 15

    I have a project outboard that I just got running. It looks bad and has seen some bad days. I ran it for maybe a minute and no water is coming out of the hole/tube in the lower cowl. I also have a '73 9.9 that is fine but noticed the difference in size of the water outlet tube. The '73 appears...

    15 hp wiring

    I have a 78 Johnson 15 (15RL78B) that has had the wiring "modified" in some manner. It is missing the kill switch and I can't tell where everthing goes. Most is in tact but I bought a new batt cable start/switch and I don't know where that 3rd smaller wire goes. With the absence of the kill...
