Make sure the mounting surface is rust free, and the grounds at the back of the block are clean. Just looking at them dosent count, remove and clean them.

Some cheap jumper cables are thick with insulation but have a real small wire in there. Junk.

Mine is similar. The difference is mine has a swing down section on the bottom.

Yes. Mine had the fiber gear, about 1/3 of the teeth were damaged enough to warrant replacing them. I went with metal gears. Really not that loud but I insulated the doghouse pretty well.

Towed a guy once, after towing him, we found out it was the same guy who towed me out of a snowbank the previous winter! One hand feeds the other!

Try a heat gun. Just don’t heat the gel coat.

Even new condensers can be bad right out of the box.

Well, your cap is pretty rough looking. I’d replace that. All the ones I’ve worked on had a small plug that you had to take out on that raised area to burb any remaining air out of the tank. In my opinion, poor design. If it wasn’t burped the set would shut down.

Those bearings are not true sealed bearings. A true sealed bearing has a rubber lip on the inner race area. They are shielded bearings, unfortunately they can get water in them from leaking bellows. If everything is fine with the bellows, they last a long time. As long as alignment is good they...

Had mine come off the ball. I bought the rig used. Reguardless, left the driveway and a block down the street it came off. What happened was the last owner somehow bent the flip lever, straightened it out and you could not tell that the piece that grabs the lower clamp was cracked almost off...

By shoving a small hose onto a bigger fitting you may have peeled the inner part of the hose into the fuel system. Pieces of rubber have plugged it.

Not sure myself, just following along.

I burnt up my impeller and housing last year running on the hose out at my cabin. At home the water pressure is better and no issues. You should check the impeller again.

No. The front motor mounts do that.

Personally I don’t care for champions, but this ad always comes to mind.

Always check the gap. Those or any plugs can fit several different engines. How does the factory know what you are putting them in?

If you have the piece, you can repair it. I’ve used this stuff in the past. I know it was not that much money but I don’t remember where I bought it. Sandable/paintable. Follow the instructions and you will have a solid repair. https://www.docksuppliers.com/plastic-boat-repair-kit.aspx

200 two stoke is lighter than a 150 4 stroke. If that's what you have.

If the dealer does fix it, make sure they don't just lay another bead of caulk around the edges. The proper fix is to unbolt the unit, raise it up a couple inches and put the sealant under the flange. When they drop it back down clean up the excess squeeze out.

When Covid hit, our marina was busier than ever. Then the price of fuel went up and after that it is slowed down drastically.
