    There was a running joke with my battery supplier when I returned a Red Top under warranty......"put it right over there with the rest of them".

    Need a New battery ,got more for less at Wallyworld....I think

    The Interstate battery (other was Everstart) I replaced this Spring had a 2010 date code. Still pasted load testing but not pushing my luck. I have never lost a battery in service on a boat once I stopped using starting /dual purpose batteries and went to deep cycle. Last two sets of batteries...

    As I suspected by my earlier comments….not anymore. Johnson Controls was sold to Brookfield Business Partners in 2018 https://www.jsonline.com/story/money/business/2018/11/13/johnson-controls-sell-automotive-battery-business-13-2-billion/1987434002/

    Need a New battery ,got more for less at Wallyworld....I think

    Make sure you check out all the specifications before buying. Bought two Everstart grp. 27 RV & Marine batteries this Spring to replace their 10 year old aging predecessors. When I went to pick them up, the part number was the same but the AH rating noted on the battery was considerably lower...

    Dead battery after sitting on trailer

    One would think it would be pretty obvious that you forgot to turn the power (battery switch) on when you turn the ignition switch and nothing happens. Could provide two signals..... Green = don't forget to turn off battery switch No Green Light = Dead battery......you forget to turn the...

    1992 Johnson 175 Silver Star not getting fuel.

    If your pumping the Primer (squeezy thing) in the picture, your squeezing the oil system primer, not the fuel primer Manual wise, E-bay is probably your best bet for hard copy. Can get PDF version here https://watercraftmanuals.com/outboard/johnson/manuals/johnson-507950.htm

    No Display on Fusion ms-ip600 and possible replacements?

    LCD displays can be flaky. Did you try a hard reset of the unit? Seems to return the display to operation for a number of people. Not sure if that would work given the wiring, bad connections etc. Best get a model number off the speakers and look them up According to your manual, you have 3...

    1993 Evinrude 200 TXT Peeing but no water at thermostats

    Something doesn’t sound right Does this motor have a flush port/ tell tale combo? What water pressure are you seeing with the engine at idle? Should be @ 3 psi for a new impeller.

    right prop

    The WOT on that motor is 5,000 to 6,000 rpm. If you tach is showing 6,700 that needs to be sorted out Serial number plate should be on transom bracket

    Dead battery after sitting on trailer

    How do you stop the current draw from a current leak in the bilge pump circuit, another light? The real solution is to install a simple on/off battery switch or a 1/2/both switch if running a two batteries. Simply turn the switch to On when getting on the boat and Off when getting off the boat.

    right prop

    Something isn’t right… What motor? Limiter should have picked in long before you get to 6700 rpm What speed (GPS) at those rpm? 4” change of pitch should result in a 400 rpm change, not 2,000 rpm. Check the accuracy of the tach

    No Display on Fusion ms-ip600 and possible replacements?

    LCD displays and below freezing temp don’t play well together. Was the radio removed in the winter or left in place? Being left in the cold combined with “never used the radio” is a death sentence for a LCD display Remotes are useless antiques with Bluetooth controls The unit is rated 70W x...

    Where does electric for lights cb radio etc. connect from?

    What you have will work but ideally you want a master switch that completely disconnects the battery from any source of draw on the boat. Eliminates the possibility of leaving the key on and running down the battery that way This switch get wired in between the battery and the motor. The...

    Where does electric for lights cb radio etc. connect from?

    Run wire from panel directly to the ACC terminal on the battery switch. Run wire directly to battery if you don’t have a switch. Keep in mind that doing this means the circuit is live until you turn the battery switch off. If you connect directly to the battery, it’s always hot. Need to...

    How to tell a replacable hub prop

    Everything is relative to scale. Certainly overkill for my 14’ aluminum with the 9.9 on the back. On the big boat, I spend more than the cost of the hub on food and drinks for the day. Throw in bait, fuel and 2 stroke oil, the hub money equates to change found under the couch cushions. ;)

    How to tell a replacable hub prop

    The whole idea of the hub is interchangeably of props. You can buy one prop and use it on any number of shafts simply by changing the spline insert. As Chris noted, pretty sure you would destroy an aluminum prop before you “sheared” the hub. I have not run an aluminum prop in years. It’s a...
