    Tohatsu M50D2 Fuel System

    Long story short... Owned this boat/motor (1999 50hp 2 stroke) for 8 years, sold it to buddy (regretted it), and bought it back from him a few months ago. He used it an average amount, but hadn't done any service to it in the 3 years he had it. Put fresh gas in and took it out and it started up...

    1993 Johnson 60hp J60TLETD

    Is this the plug for a tach? It only has one grey/purple colored wire coming out. Got this engine and control box used from another boat, so not certain of history.

    Is this prop done?

    Bought a 60 hp Johnson with this OMC 13.25x17 AL prop. It's beat up pretty good. Any hope for it, or just get another one?

    1991 Evinrude 60HP (Tracker)

    Anything to look out for on these? Any opinions? Going today to look at one and will check compression, fire, T&T, and look for lower unit leaks. Guy says it runs great, but you never know. Boat is shot, so no water test. I didn't ask for a serial number. He wants $500 for motor or $600 for...

    1993 90HP Johnson starter

    Am I missing something on the top of my starter above the nut? I replaced the starter last year, so it's not OEM and have ran it without issue several times. But, this past weekend the nut came off on 2 separate occasions and starter bendix wouldn't engage. Both times I was able to luckily find...

    1993 Javelin trailer wheel bearings

    I have removed one of the hubs, bearings, seals, etc. and the axle is tapered. I took measurement with a tape and 'eyeballed it' best I could. I read the sticky at the top and it showed part numbers on the bearings, but I can't see any on mine? Inside bearing inner diam 1.5" Outside bearing...

    1993 V4 90hp Johnson Won't Turn Over

    Background: Went to lake yesterday and had trouble starting engine, as I have a few times since I bought boat. Think I've been flooding it by opening fast idle wide open, pumping bubble a lot, and constantly pushing the key primer. I spun the engine to where the battery (battery wasn't fully...

    1984 35hp Johnson

    Friend of mine bought his old boat back from the guy he sold it to. Has a 1984 35hp Johnson on it. The guy told him the motor would start up and idle great, but wouldn't run under a load. So, my buddy gets it home and cranks it right up, and notices there's no water coming from pee hole, so he...

    Toggle Switch Too Short

    Bought a togggle switch to kill power to my boat stereo. Didn't want to mount on dash, so chose a spot beside driver's seat in the rear battery compartment. Being an idiot and not planning ahead, I drilled the hole for the switch and then figured out the wood/fiberglass is too thick for the...

    Sandbags

    Can someone explain sandbags? Where/what to buy? Do I just fill them myself with sand in my yard and chunk em in there? Sorry for ignorance, but I want to try adding some weight to storage area in bow and figured this was a good option. The storage hatch on bow deck in not very large (maybe...

    1993 V4 Johnson controls

    Can someone point me to where I can find how to connect a tach to my control harness? Googling tells me I should have a 3 prong plug on control, but I've crawled down there twice and don't see a plug. It's a 1993 concealed control as pictured. The boat does not have a tach and appears to never...

    1993 V4 Johnson

    Possibly going to look at used Javelin with a '93 Johnson 90hp. What should I look for on this engine? Common issues? He says the oil injection VRO has been deleted, which is a plus IMO. Also had a recent carb service and new fuel pump. Haven't discussed whether trying it on the water is an...

    which brand prop for tohatsu 50 2 stroke

    i'm swapping my yamaha 60 for a 2001 5o tohatsu 2s that my buddy has. the prop he has is banged up, with no numbers on it, and it looks to me like a pontoon prop. maybe a 10 or 11 pitch. so i've got to get a new prop and a 13 pitch should be what i need for my boat. my question is, what is...
