    2004 Regal Tachometer 4.3L gxi

    Hello--on my 2004 regal 2000 with 4.3L volvo gxi, my tach is no longer working. I could have sworn it worked when I wrapped up the boat...but anyway---the digital hour meter comes on, but the rpm needle does not move from 800rpm. It doesnt drop to zero when the key is turned (but engine not...

    Can I run my 92 j0hnson with the oil tank level sensor disonnected?

    The oil tank level sending unit is causing the warning system to constantly be on--constantly whistling--the oil tank is full. I unplugged the sending unit at the connection on the motor and it instantly shuts off. Can the engine be run safely with that unit disconnected? That is, does it have...

    Installing shift cable on 93 four winns w/92 johnson 120

    The shift cable is supposed to go into one of these two holes. I successfully used the bottom hole and got it to work for a while, but the cable still binds up going into reverse. When I remove the shift cable, the mechanism works freely. I can manually pull and push the shift cable, and it...

    1992 Johnson 120 intermittent fuel alarm

    The fuel restriction alarm comes on intermittently on my 1992 johnson 120. If I turn off the motor, let it sit for a few minutes, and turn it back on, it will correct itself. Any ideas? I changed the water seperator with a new one, but no change. Whats next? Thanks

    1992 Johnson 120 shift throw length question..

    I have a 1992 johnson 120 mounted on a 1993 four winns 180. The controls seem to be original. I recently broke part 329085, which is a plastic link that connects the shift rod to the shifter linkage which is controlled by the cable. The piece broke at the eyelet on the shifter linkage side. I...

    Engine Runs, wont shift into gear

    My 1993 Johnson 120 V4 runs and starts, but I lost forward and reverse gear tonight and had to get towed home. I removed the cable to see if I could manually put it into gear, engine off, and the shift lever just swings with absolutely no resistance. Any ideas guys?

    how do you remove the shifter handle?

    I have the cover off the hondle (the piece that has the trim switch in it) I have the 3 screws out from under the handle itself as well as the screws that hold the plastic molding to the side of the boat. The handle will not come out. What am I doing wrong? Is there a trick to this?

    1992 Johnson 120 prop question

    I have a 1993 four winns 180 Freedom with Johnson 120 on it. The prop on there right now is a 17 pitch. I had it out on the lake and the tach was reading max rpms at 5000. I thought it should be closer to 5500, am I mistaken? What pitch prop should be on here to get max rpm. What was on there...

    Are there bolt on modifications available to make my 60 hp Mariner 3cyl 2 stroke run at about 70-80 hp? There are many things I can do to my 2 stroke arctic cat F7, was wondering if the same is true for outboards.

    I need a new hull!?!?!?

    I need a new hull, that is, my 60 horse outboard engine, steering, and electrical are all ok, but the interior, floor, and hull are junk. Is there a manufacturer that markets a 15 ft bowrider with no motor? Basically a hull and interior? I dont even really need the trailer. Where do I go to find...
