Any one out there have any ideas that I havent tried???

Went out to test rebuilt lower unit...success!!! No more "clunk"!! Motor ran great at cruise speed...38 MPH at 5400 Problem it wont run below 2100 rpm without using the key primer to keep it running....idle smooth in neutral, but as soon as you put it in drive it dies Fresh fuel New filters...

Jamaica Bay! I grew up on Long Island...in Nassau County (HIcksville) All of my fishing was Oyster Bay, Bayville and shore fishing off Sound Beach. Normal stuff: flounder, blacks, porgies, blowfish, sea robins, occasional eel and dogfish. Moved to Arizona in 1972, courtesy of the...

Answered one of my questions...my current motor is a 20"...have to look for a 25"...sigh!

Thinking about a repower...boat Im looking at is reported to have 2 cylinders down on compression and possible scoring. I have an older 185 Airslot with a fresh rebuild of a Johnson 130...big enough for the V21...??

Black ABS grained panels...works great for all kinds of panels...easy to cut and fit

Could you lengthen the bunk to eliminate the hangover?
