    I think I got lucky..

    I've been looking for a used boat and have seen a lot of junk. I was beginning to think I would have to lower my expectations when I came across an ad in the local paper for an 87 Sea Ray Seville. I thought it might be a little on the older side but decided to give it a call.<br /><br />I...

    It happened to me!!

    This past weekend I spend the day fishing with my father and brothers in law. It was a miserable day. Driving rain, thunder, <60 degrees. We decided to call it a day.<br /><br />We get to the ramp and one of my bros in law asks if he can back the trailer down the ramp. I said no because I...

    Force mid-range

    I have a 1992 Force 50hp on a pontoon. I have a problem that I do not know how to fix. The symptoms are that I can run it wide open or at idle, but in between it is really rough. There is a little range on each end but it seems there is a transition point where it is firing rough and then...

    Water in Gas

    What is a good product to use to help burn the water out of my tank. Up north here in MN we are used to putting HEAT (isopropyl alcohol I believe) in the tank of our cars when the gas lines freeze up. But I am not sure what to use on a two stoke OB.. Thanks.

    Single Axle Pontoon Trailer

    I have a single axle center lift style pontoon trailer that is very tippy. The springs seem to be too soft and the boat, even at standstill will rock side to side very easily. It is outfitted with 1850lb springs and I have been considering upgrading the springs to 2500lb or 3000lb springs to...

    1992 50hp Force Carb rebuild

    I recently ordered a rebuild kit for my 92 50hp Force. when I went to replace the float needle seat, they were not the same. I thne noticed that the carb had WE17c 7/88 stamped on it and wondered if the carb had been replaced with an older carb.<br /><br />Does anyone know what the Tillotson...
