awesome guys thank you for the input. that is exactly what i needed to hear. if we can run that shallow that would be awesome. do you run a hydrofoil as well? or can you for that matter wiht the pods? what is your set back?
good afternoon we are wondering if we can get some opinions and ideas. we have a tracker 17tx with the johnson/tracker 70. we are looking at ways to be able to run on plain in shallower water. we primarily fish in mosquito lagoon and average depth is 12-16". currenlty we need about 20-22" of...
yes i have gone home and put muffs on it and still does not pee and visually the screen in the lower unit looks clean before i hook them up. i have tried running it with the cap off and unfortunately i cannot say for certain it is better or worse. as it only has the fuel issue some times. i...
in regards to the fuel line i think we have several problems there to. im going to replace the old line from the fuel pump to the carbs as i dont know how old it is and it sat unused for 2 years. i think our second problem is that the deck filler we installed has a vent/overflow connection and...

FINALLY has two successfull trips out on the boat tongiht with no motor problems! we have spent the last two weeks chasing issue after issue and finally got them all worked out. even took it to dinner tonight. we hope to finish the rest of the build by next week.

well i suppose the phrase " Bust Out Another Thousand" wouldnt be true if it wasnt a boat. ran into a bunch of non sence little issues. between bad switches and locked up throttle linkages more bad switches, small fire, crappy fuse block and i am pretty sure a bad tach not sure what else can...
yes sir it sure did. deff hooked me up with the tach wire unfortunately i found out my brand new tach is bad! go figure. thanks for the schematic though very much appreciated.
Pappy thank you so much for the details! i did buy a manual and ill be honest i have been working on the boat and have not touched the motor but i will be starting on it tonight. i bought a new thermostat that even if it isnt bad hey what can it hurt right. I bought the upgraded cup and the...
Big Night tonight. been letting the paint dry for a while before we walked on it. going ot get the console installed and all the interior lights, and hatches. unless we have a major issue hope to have her in the water this weekend. It was a big day we finally came to a agreement on the name...
