    Steering on 1998 Lund Pro V 1800 is stiff coming out of center.

    The steering has been this way since I bought it used. The problem is that the steering is really stiff going left or right from center, one you start to turn it gets "normal"/easy all the way to the stop and coming back again. But as you approach center it gets stiff again. I've...

    According to what I could find online and what the local parts guy is telling me. The coils that I have on my 1974 90 hp is no longer available. I have two different kinds on it now. Is that going to be an issue?

    working on a 1984 90 hp evinrude.

    Got this boat off craigslist more for the boat than the motor so when the motor ran that was a big plus. Got it home, pulled the plugs, sprayed the cylinders, drained the gas, put it back together new gas and it fired right up. The VRO oil hose had been cut off and there doesn't appear to be...
