    Trailer guides

    I have rollers on guides and they are great. I have a flat bottom 18’ skiff so there is nothing to hold me in place. I most often launch solo so having the guides especially on a windy day is perfect for me.

    Evinrude 75hp 1976, difficulties accelerating

    I do not and timming should be fine if you didn’t mess with it. What your after is getting all the throttle plates to open at the same and correct time. With the cam follower being off I suspect they are not.

    Evinrude 75hp 1976, difficulties accelerating

    Did you do a link and sync after cleaning the carbs? Sounds like it’s starving for air.

    Cicada

    I wouldn’t hesitate to try these. We have a lot here this year but not what I would consider an invitation. It’s been about ten years or so since we had an invasion and it was crazy.

    Cicada

    I have a pressure pot. I’m no stranger to using epoxy on all sorts of stuff. I just haven’t done an insect yet and was wondering if I should try and dehydrate it first. I’ll see how it goes and post the results.

    Cicada

    I caught a Cicada in my shop this morning. I may try to cast it in clear epoxy. Anyone ever tried this?

    1975 Johnson 70hp

    Just keep in mind if your going to run it no fuel means no oil in that top cylinder. If it were me I would just do the carbs and be done with it before running it again.

    1975 Johnson 70hp

    Not sure what happend to rest of my last post. Aside from checking for spark I was also going to suggest checking the idle circuit. No fuel no oil. When you get into higher rpm’s you may start getting fuel then. Confirming your theory of losing the top cylinder at low rpm’s.

    Check for spark on the top cylinder to be sure it’s firing.

    Rear bimini 94' Sun Tracker party barge 30

    Look for a local canvas shop. You will very often get a much better and quality job from a smaller shop. And your supporting for local community.

    WOT timing value on a 90hp johnson?

    That’s not a joke. Play it safe and don’t run wot until the manual arrives. Pre ignition can wreak havoc is short time. Be gentle with her if you must go.

    He’s clearly having a blast. I bet there is some great fishing around those buoys.

    How do you trim?

    I think a lot people over think some things and make them more complicated than they need to be.

    Remote oil tank

    Just a guess but maybe that’s for a remote fill should the tank be in a tight spot.
