    Dead Gas Gauge

    New Sierra gauge ordered and installed. All is well and now I know what's in my tank. I think I want a whole new set now.

    98 4.3 GL Fuel Pump Connector

    I dont have the wire leads off of the fuel pump. It is a stationary hard month on the fuel pump. The thought had crossed my mind to directly wire it and bypass the plugs but thought this solution may be more stable.

    Dead Gas Gauge

    I know this has been beaten to death but before I throw a new gauge in I wanted to see if yall agree with my assessment. With the key in the on position I am bottomed out on the gauge. I pulled the contacts at the tank and cleaned them and tried the ground out trick with no change. I moved...

    98 4.3 GL Fuel Pump Connector

    I had no clue it was a universal type of plug. I went ahead and order a new plug so hopefully it wont be dying on me anymore. Nothing worse than pulling off from the dock with some friends and have it fall flat on its face after running great all day.

    98 4.3 GL Fuel Pump Connector

    Hey all! I have owned this boat for a few years and never knew anything was wrong until it cut off on me on the water and just refused to fire again. Turns out the harness connector for the fuel pump no longer stays connected to the pump. It will just slip off on a whim. I zip tied it to get...

    1984 Yamaha 200 ETLN 2-stroke no spark

    I have once again come to ask for you guys help. I finally got it running and then lost all spark while fine tuning the carbs. My question is what should I check to trouble shoot the CDI and the control box? Is either more likely to fail than the other? The old CDIs are impossible to find and...

    Yamaha 200 ETXN 86 2-Stroke will not run.

    I had another thread but was having a different issue. Seemed more appropriate to start a new one. My engine sat for a few years before it came to me. I have been trying to get it running to no avail without spraying gas through carbs. Once I do that it will fire right up with no issues. I...

    2004 BF90 No Crank Condition

    My parents have a Honda BF90 on a scout they were using at the beach last week. All week long it did great with daily use. They took it out fishing Friday and had to get a tow due to the no start condition. When you turn the ignition to on everything acts as it should, but when turned to crank...

    Yamaha 200 ETXN Carb Draining Gas

    Hey Yall, I have a 200 ETXN that was gifted to me that I am finally getting on my 74 Mako 20. I cleaned out the carbs, new NGK plugs, replaced the fuel lines, and deleted the oil pump (it wasnt complete) in favor of premix. My new problem is that when I pump the bulb it wont hold pressure...

    Noisy Intermitent Trim Pump

    My trim on my 98 4.3gl/sx, with the old style pump, has decided to be less reliable than I want it to be and I want to see if yall concur with my diagnosis before I change anything. The relays click when toggle is engaged but it takes multiple attempts before trim motor kicks on. When it does...

    Honda BF90 Intermitent Alarm

    My parents picked up a 98 Scout with a 2006 BF90 retrofitted on at some point. Boat ran really well for a few months and my brother hit a mud flat in it. This is when he first started noticing the alarm. I cleared the mud from every or oriface and I have pressurized water flow. It buzzes under...

    Setback Bracket Mako 20

    I have a 1974 Mako 20 with a 22" transom. I was given a 1986 200 25" Yamaha that needed a new lower that I happened to have. Will using a fixed bracket to gain the extra transom height I need be a good idea? If it is a good idea how big of a setback should I go for? The boat seemed pretty well...

    Repropping 2005 Honda BF90

    Hey guys, I just picked up a Scout 162 with a 2005 Honda BF90 and need to find a new prop. I have that famous lean out condition right after I apply the throttle that I am trying to work around. Right now it has a stainless 3 blade 17 pitch and I would like to switch to a prop to allow the...

    Will 200 HPDI Lower Fit 200 ETLN?

    I have a 200 ETLN that needs a new lower due to freeze damage and water intrusion that was left unchecked by the previous owner as he had it sitting outside. I have a chance at a 200 HPDI lower for less than $500 and cant really find any way to cross reference the two to see if this would work...

    4.3gl SX Trim Problem

    I have a 98 Sunbird with the old style trim pump. It worked when I trimmed it down to run it on the muffs today and when I tried to trim back up or down nothing happened. I had no clicking of relays and no trim motor at all. No breakers were tripped and I have power at the plug on top of the...

    200ETLN Wiring and Oil Pump

    I had to disassemble the wiring harness for my new to me 200ETLN to get rid of the horrendous splices the previous owner threw together. I have taken it back to the original 10 wire configuration. If I have everything wired correctly it should function right on down to the trim, correct? The...

    1997 4.3GL Temporary Knock

    Hey guys, I have less than 20 hours on a rebuilt 1998 4.3 GL. It has an intermittent knock that has me stumped. If I keep it below 3k then it runs really well and no sounds out of the ordinary. After running 4k or higher for more than a few minutes then it develops a knock. After bringing it...
