I’ve been trying different things each time. Your solution is the stupidest I’ve heard.

The pump housing is melted inside. Couldn’t get the cup out. Outside looks ok. I’ll check that tomorrow. Thanks

It’s crazy this can happen to an impeller in 30 seconds with the motor in the water.

Interesting. Thank you. Do you know how to check that or clear that line?

It is 16.5” I forgot transoms aren’t 90 degrees.

The housing is melted. Can’t get the cup out. Ordered a new one. Had to do this each time. The pump was actually bad the first time I tan the motor. So this is actually the 4th time since last summer.

It doesn’t pee now but yes I check it very often. After a lot of reading it’s something to do with ventilation. Power cut out right before it burnt up. It’s happened randomly a few times but I stopped and it was still peeing. This time it wasn’t so I shut it down. My cavitation plate is even...

Now that I’m looking at it I think it’s plenty deep. The cavitation plate is about even with the bottom of the boat. Must be a different issue. No the water I run in is fairly clean. I was on a river today when it went but it was crystal clear.

I have a tracker topper 1542. I put a suzuki 9.9 short shaft on it. I’ve gone through 3 water pumps since last august. My only thought is my motor sits too high. It’s listed as a 16.5” transom. I measure 17”. Should I of bought a long shaft? Any ideas?

Yeah I was reading that. I don’t have a router but I was going to do what I could with a dremel. Thanks

I’m putting one of those plastic transducer plates on my jon boat. Anyone have any luck using epoxy or 5200? I’ll run a couple screws in it if I have to but prefer to just glue it.

Glad to hear it. Thanks

Putting a casting deck on my 1542. I’m wondering how close to center do I need my trolling motor. Not a ton of room to angle it and get it centered. Will it steer poorly if it’s not?

Never mind. Found some that worked good
