    Force 120 compatability

    Gang. I have a trophy with a force 120. It’s got a 25 inch shaft. I may want to pick up a spare but i honestly don’t know if the engines are similar enough to be compatible like lower units, the engine block etc. I’m fairly certain the motor i found is 20 inch shaft. My engine

    Bayliner Trophy Bilge pump question

    Dingbat thank you. I found that manual too last night. I just wasn’t sure how the flat switch would be wired from factory. It’s all right there. I moved the wire to the battery switch so it doesn’t drain a battery since i do not leave the boat in the water. I also feel 1000 gph pump is...

    Bayliner Trophy Bilge pump question

    Final update, the bilge pump is a 1000gph Johnson The bilge pump is activated 2 ways, thru the dash switch and thru the float switch. The float switch is run on a fused wire that goes to the battery switch. It was initially on the 12v battery terminal but I dont leave the boat in the water so...

    Bayliner Trophy Bilge pump question

    Matt the coat hanger triggered the pump. The dash switch was off (its only on or off) and coat hanger basically had the bilge pump turn on. Interesting a 28 year old switch works. What the heck. Same with the bilge pump, still works. At the point swapping a stronger bilge pump is what I...

    Bayliner Trophy Bilge pump question

    Hi everyone, I am wondering if someone is familiar with this setup. It is a 1996 trophy 20 foot WA. The bilge pump currently works when I turn it on from the dash. Does anyone know the GPH of the stock pump. The dash has a simple switch that is on and off. The blue box next to the...

    1996 Force 120 overheat question

    That’s the sensor. I found a faria 2 inch temperature gauge with 140 degrees being the center and attached this here. After the new mercury thermostat it runs really cool. Cool enough to touch right there with my battery gang even after wide open throttle. I must admit the lake is only 48...

    Lower unit seals replacement on 96 force 120

    Hi gang, when I changed my lower unit fluid initially, I noticed a very small amount of water in it. The oil in there was a bluish 90w oil. I did something dumb and used yellow 80-90w marine gear oil. So after about 6 hours at the lake on 2 occasions, I drained the oil and found a mixture...

    Hi Jerry, thank you for telling me the location. I figured no need to start a new thread to clarify a post in this one since others will search for similar answers. I find these old posts pretty helpful.

    1996 Force 120 overheat question

    Merry Christmas everyone and Thank you so much for the replies. I have an IR thermometer. Where exactly do you point it to get the measurement? Also I have been buying quicksilver parts but it seems the gaskets are not in some sort of package and something like this looks to be cheaper...

    1996 Force 120 overheat question

    Hi gang, I recently bought a 1996 bayliner trophy (20foot walkaround) Boat ran fine but the water coming out of the telltale was sort of intermittent, especially at idle. However I ran it for 2-3 hours at the lake (65 degrees) and no issues, no overheat. My OCD got the best of me, I swapped...
