    Need prop for 89 Evinrude 150 XP

    Ok my fiberglass 17' 89 Ranger 373 doesn't have the right prop on it. Currently has a 14.5 X 24 3 blade. It's a little sluggish out of the hole and sucks at keeping low speed plane. And does about 60 (according to the gauge) at 4600 RPM's. What is a decent inexpensive prop and where can I get...

    Steering notchy after putting it back together

    Ok I took apart the steering at the console a few months ago to replace guages wiring and switches. After putting it back together last weekend I noticed that the steering does work but seems more notchy than what I remember. There's not much to it so I'm surprised anything is different. I did...

    Advice on fixing or replacing my 24v Motorguide Tour

    Ok unfortunately I didn't do my homework when I bought a used motorguide off of ebay. It now needs a control board that isn't made anymore. I didn't pay much for the trolling motor is there a cheap place to get the digital conversion I've found a price of 380 so far for the kit and have heard...

    89 Evinrude 150 no igition power

    Ok so this was my fault and i'm having the fun of trying to understand how the elctrical system on this thing works. I pulled off the ignition switch to put on a new gauge cluster panel and clean the connections at the same time. Being in a rush I slipped with the screwdriver and popped the...

    89 150 XP, low end power

    I've got a 89 Ranger 373V bass boat with a 150 XP. Other than still trying to figure out the quirks of getting it to start up right away when cold seems to hum pretty good topping out at just under 60 with trim full up at 4500 RPM's. I'm a little concerned about the power displayed when I'm...

    89 Evinrude 150 XP fuel pump

    I've only ran the boat twice this season since I've bought it. This last time after not running for a few months it wouldn't start. After inspecting it after leaving the lake I found it wasn't getting any fuel even though there was pressure to the pump. It did start after getting back home so it...

    Pointers for lake fishing in TN

    Ok I've only lived in TN for a little over a year now and finally have my boat in decent enough shape and taking in out of the lakes now. I realized looking at my fishing gear that basically none of my Maryland river fishing that I've done for the past 15 years will be helpful here. Previously I...

    Boat pulls to the right

    Ok how to you do an alignment to a boat? 89 Ranger 373V 150HP Evinrude. This is only the 2nd time I've had the boat in the water since I bought it a few months back. I don't remember if it pulled the first time I drove it or not. It's seems pretty bad as if you were to let go of the steering...

    Where to find seat base plate bushings

    I'm trying to find bushings for the seat base plates for my 89 Ranger 373V. It's got the round 9" plates with 2" holes. I'm assuming that I've seen some base plates listed for a 1.77" pole that must be it. I can only find bushings for 2 3/8 or 2 7/8 or something like that and not the 1.77" I'm...

    Is one brand of coil better than others?

    Needing to replace some coils on my 89 Evinrude XP 150. I see CDI, Sierra and Mallery coils available some quite a bit cheaper than others. Does the brand really matter?
