    Who knows 1920's Johnson model A 2 hp, gearbox and water pump

    I have an old 58 Crestliner 15 ft "Voyager," bow lamp housing in decent shape, and I'm not anxious to put a "modern" one on that. It seems to take a 90 bulb, but I cannot read it anymore. Anyone have a "favorite" LED lamp I can put in there? I AM NOT looking to use the original...

    Can someone tell me for certain what the initial timing is on a 93 Merc V6 4.3/ Thunderbolt IV ignition? I've searched........there is nothing to unplug like some of the later modules...... And before you get off the track this does not appear to be a V or VI. It has the small module...

    Howdy from the N end of Idaho. Just bought an old 12 ft Crestliner, seems to be a "decked bow Commander" or possibly "Speedster" and someone has removed the steering, and installed a new dash piece.
