    Stumbling on takeoff

    I need some opinions about a holeshot problem on my 94 Evinrude Intruder 175. It is on a 19 foot Ranger 481. It cranks up and idles. When I put it in gear and and start forward it begins to bog down. If I slowly press my hot foot I am able to keep it cranked and the rpm gets to about 1000. If...

    My MotorGuide model 750 12/24 volt trolling motor is losing the 24 volt use during a day of fishing a tournament. I run the motor on 3 and on 24 volts for most of my fishing. I don't usually put much use on my motor and this problem has not always been there. My batteries are only 6 months...

    ticking sound at idle speed

    I have a 94 Evinrude 175 sixty degree that I rebuilt almost 5 years ago. It has given me no problem and runs smoothly until my last visit to the lake. I began hearing a ticking or clicking sound at idle speed. It is right in rhythm with the engine running. If I push my hot foot and give it...
