    Reverse Gate bushings and stiff throttle

    Thanks for the reply. My cable is brand new so that’s ok. The idle is about normal. I have played with it a bit. I’ll take a pic of my gate this weekend. Let me ask this...does your gate rattle around or is it sloppy wiggling it with your hand or solid and stiff? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Reverse Gate bushings and stiff throttle

    I have a mid 90s 200hp Mercury on a 2072 fisher. When the motor is off I can shift from N to F no problem. When the motor is at idle in N it will go into reverse (my last boat would creep Forward). It’s very stiff to go from N to F when the boat is idling. Once I’m in F it is smooth. Just that...

    Custom Pods

    I had custom pods added to my 1654 Tracker Grizzly and they made a huge difference!! My boat was a CC and had a mercury 90/75 jet. The console was towards the back of the boat so I had to load it heavy on the bow when duck hunting to get on step better. I had better performance, handling...

    Mercury outboard fuel help!!!

    I just wanted to follow up and say I believe switching out he primer bulb fixed the problem. I ran the boat for 15 miles last week and had zero issues. The old bulb looked like the drain stop ball had come loose and was rattling around inside the bulb Thanks everyone. Sent from my iPhone...

    Mercury outboard fuel help!!!

    Thanks guys. I’ll order that stuff and give it s try and yes my can is exactly as the epa caps are. A little vent that screws and doesn’t do anything. I eve. Took it out to see if it was broken or needed cleaned and I don’t even see how it would vent. Lol. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Mercury outboard fuel help!!!

    No my tank is a 12 gallon potable with a vent cap. My cap does not vent thru the vent screw though. I just don’t tighten it all the way and leave a little loose so it can vent. If I tighten all the way it will suck the bulb flat. Think this could be a problem leaving it loose? I’ve done it for a...

    Mercury outboard fuel help!!!

    I’ll look at the fitting on the tank too. As far as electrical. Yes I was forced to check all of those when my rectifier went bad and burned up so I replaced it and checked all electrical. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Mercury outboard fuel help!!!

    Ok I will switch it out. I figured one the fuel was primed then vacuum just would draw fuel they that line. It makes sense that the inside could be rotted. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    How bad is this impeller?

    That is actually the liner. The impeller is the piece with blades behind it. That just looks normal to me. Maybe a little deeper grooves than you’d like to see but as you run your motor those grooves will happen over time with debris running thru there as well as the impeller itself. You simply...

    Where to put my Console.

    That’s kinda where I am at right now. Thinking about pods and then maybe a 15-20 gallon fuel tank in the bow. I’d like more room but I don’t want a rough ride of putting a console in the front. I also like to go solo sometimes and I don’t have to worry about weight with a center console compared...

    Where to put my Console.

    That’s s nice boat. Yes I like to stand and have thought about that. Also if I’m by myself a S.C. is a little tougher to balance out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Where to put my Console.

    That’s good advice. I will play around with weight more. I’ll tell ya when it’s just me and my Lab in the boat with all the gear on the deck it’s gets on the water quick. If going downriver. If I try to start heading up river it wants to just point straight up and porpoise. Sent from my...

    Where to put my Console.

    Hey everyone. I am new to the forum but have been doing lots of reading for a while. I’m trying to decide what to do with my boat. I have a Tracker 1654 CC with a 90hp Mercury Jet. I use this boat to hunts ducks and fish. I got it this year. I feel like the Console is back to far. The boat...
