I am mounting a long shaft motor on a short shaft transom. Is 1/8" 3x3 aluminum angle with 3- 3/4" pieces of plywood strong enough for a Mercury 25hp ob? I plan on building it like this http://www.catfish1.com/forums/f184/how-i-built-jack-plate-my-catfish-boat-38827.html
Any input would be...
I am trying to figure out what year my mercury motor is. The serial number sticker is missing, and i cant seem to find a number on the motor to match up. Does anybody know how to tell the difference between a 1996 and 2000 or newer? I was told it was an 02 when i purchased. Any help would be...
I have a 1974 Johnson 25hp. I have replaced waterpump, thermostat, both cylinders are reading around 105 psi. After running for a while the tell tale will have steam coming out with the water. Should i worry? What else could be the culprit?
