    '82 Johnson 70hp - One cylinder down when cold

    Hi All, I have a 1982 Johnson 70hp that I picked up last year for cheap. I didn't get a chance to get my boat running until later in the summer this year.

    89 Bass Tracker Pro17 Console Switch Layout

    Hi all, This weekend I purchased an 89 Bass Tracker Pro17. The prior owner replaced the decking and carpet this spring time. Unfortunately he was not really adept at wiring, and decided to do the least possible to get back on the water. To that end, most of the switches weren't hooked up or...
