I have a 2001 19 Cape Horn C/C. I am 99% sure this is the factory trailer and "almost" sure its original bunks/brackets (Performance Trailer).
Brackets and hardware are shot (corrosion) and bunks old with age, so I plan to replace the setup.
My question... I just now noticed the brackets...
So I finally had a chance to swap my old Map440s to an Echo70dv and have some tech questions on how it works with HomePort. I know the copyright stuff is strict and some actions seem "irriversable" during the setup process, so I want to make sure I get it right. I have searched google/forums for...
I realize I might be over thinking this... was just looking for some thoughts.
I have a 20' C/C and want to clean the inside of the console. I need to run a transducer cable and been meaning to clean the console anyway... See pics, there is some mild mildew.
I'm tempted to blast it with...
I'm sure some form of this question has been asked many times... I'm stumped...
My Nav/Anchor switch failed afew weeks back (at sea... at night). I was able to rig the lights on 2 other switches to get back though.
When I went to purchase a new switch... I didnt quite think it through... I...
Hey guys,
I searched the net and pretty found what I was looking for... just had afew questions I couldnt get a clear answer on. Motor is 2001 Yami V6 150
These questions are referring to trailered, ear muff cold starts.
1 - for some reason I thought it was not a good idea to start a cold...
I keep having issues random "spots" inside and outside the boat. Things like when a leaf hits the deck and starts to bleed from rain water, to when a passanger steps on with a sneaker and leaves a streak, to a random grease print from a finger that wasnt cleaned well, to a streak on the hull...
Re: Yamaha Tach Question - Need Part Number 2001 Motor
My mistake... I didnt follow the assembly fully the first time I looked. I was only looking at the actual tach and not the plugs just 10 inches away... brain fart. Attached are pics, yes, I do have the 2 plug unit. Is there a part number...
My tach display is shot. I can't seem to see a Part Number on the unit itself, unless it wore away?
Someone told me there are specific models... but then someone else just said to pay attention to 1 plug or 2 plugs?
My unit has 1 plug. Motor is 2001 Yamaha 150TXRZ
I see atleast 3 different...
Re: Thinking of removing brakes - double axle with 19 Cape Horn
Wanted to start by saying.. thanks for all the feedback. I'm keeping the brakes.. When I started the thread, I forgot about the trailer weight itself, etc... makes total sense to keep them.
My saga continues... I checked the...
Ive got a 19 Cape Horn on a double axle aluminum trailer. Frame is in great shape but front axle (with brakes) is in rough shape. Ive battled the brakes for years (salt water). Currently the drums/pads are shot and spindles need work. Even the hitch resovoir is rusty/rough. Buddies say just...
Hi, I have a 2007 Merc 2.5HP 4 stroke.
The motor is in exec condition and ran perfect for years. Last year I started to have a problem with the throttle, when after about 1/4 turn it would begin to stall. I managed to make it through the season by feathering the choke as needed to compensate...
Hello, got afew troubleshooting questions.
2001 Yamaha (150TXRZ) with multifuction speedo and tach guages.
Got the boat about 6 months ago. Motor runs fine and I knew the prior owner and boat history. The gauges never worked since the day I got it. There appears to be a slight haze on the...
Heard a big CRACK the other day on the way to the ramp, quick check and didnt see anything. Heard another big CRACK again today at the house before I left... checked again and see both leaf springs snapped.
Looks like the way the they snapped, they are actually still holding the trailer off...
Not the best title... but here I go..
Motor is a 1996 Johnson 28HP SPL. Runs like a top currently... I have always seemed to have alot of smoke (white) from the motor though... and recently started wondering if it was just the nature of the motor? I know these motors are stripped down versions...
My stator is shot on my motor... which is visibly obvious. When testing my coil for resistance, it also appears shot as well. They are 2 different parts... not combined.
I have afew questions though. On my motor, the stator assembly is separate from the coil (and timer base). They are 3...
