I just picked up an 88 Stratos with 150hp Johnson an it has a Evinrude trolling motor. It says 24v on the motor, turns slow because of only 12v at the motor. Both new batteries have separate black an red cables that go to the front. Two large red and one large black go into a large receptacle...
I just received my water pump through the mail, and have discovered that my housing (that I didn't think I needed to replace) is somewhat smaller than the Mallory that I thought was "just better quality". Its the ONLY thing that I didn't order with the kit! Anybody know if I can still use the...

I have a leaky seal, and haven't a clue on removing the gear case. I see 4 bolts in front + 1 bolt in the rear on a small block. Don't know what to expect next, or if I should have engine tilted or not ?.... Is the shift rod and drive shaft going to be a surprise? I work in maintenance, but have...
