I was winterizing my engine and noticed a little black goo had dripped a little onto the timing base. It’s my understanding that this is a failing stator. My engine seems to charge ok and my tach isn’t erratic. I do have an issue where I can’t get above 5100 rpms, not sure if it could be...

What length and type of control cables My uncle has an 89 V20 Cuddy cabin with a transom mounted 225 Yamaha. He needs to replace his control cables. I forgot what end has the length marked on them and was trying to save him the trouble of tearing the boat apart to look if they're on the control...

I have a 99 wellcraft 22WA with a 98 Johnson 200 2 stroke on it. The boat is running the factory prop that I had redone. The factory claims this combo is good for 50 mph at 5800rpm, which I figure is quite generous. Right now at WOT I get 5100rpm at 28.3 knots. I'm not sure where to find those...

I know Ferm is pretty knowledgeable when it comes to gm, among other things, so I figured I'd post here. I have an 05 Sierra 1500 non HD with an auto track transfer case. I've owned the truck since new and had very few problems over the years. Last year I started getting a service 4wd message...

98 Johnson 200 stumble I have a 98 200 Johnson. I cleaned and rebuilt the carbs and set the low speed needles at the baseline, I believe 5 1/2 turns but not sure right now, but it was according to the manual. The boat runs fine at WOT and part throttle but off the line the boat will stall if I...

I have a swim platform for sale. It's listed on Craigslist for $50. If anyone from here wants it $30. http://newjersey.craigslist.org/bpo/5471631707.html

http://cnj.craigslist.org/boa/5522080966.html looks like a nice boat.

I have the two sides and the center sections from my Grady. I don't know if they match up to a V 20 but I figured I'd put them on here.

I've got a 98 200 Ocean pro, carbed, with the system check gauges. Last week I changed the plugs, racor filter, and repaired my tilt trim. Yesterday I started it up and the check engine light went on and the alarm sounded. I looked online and read that it meant a fuel restriction so I said screw...

I have a 96 Johnson 130 hp 25" shaft for sale. It has 126 hours on the powerhead and VRO pump that were replaced in 09. At that time the carbs were rebuilt and power pack and two coils were replaced. She ran great after that. In 2012 I replaced the trim motor,re sealed the trim pump, and re...

Looks pretty good in the ad. If I didn't have the POS Grady I'd be all over it, or at least look at it. http://cnj.craigslist.org/boa/5079713605.html

I have a new in box th marine manual jackplate and mounting bolts for sale. I bought this for my Grady project but I've decided to raise the transom so I don't need it anymore. I paid $234 for the jackplate and $21 for the bolts. I'd like $200 for them.

Not sure if anyone can use this but I have the cabin door and frame from my 96 2100WA for sale. It is the earlier style black acrylic door with a square frame as opposed to the later model that had rounded edges. The top cracked at one point and I epoxied it together and epoxied and riveted an...

I have a 98 Johnson 200. Earlier this spring the tilt/trim was working fine. I had to pull the engine off to remove a bolt that was sheared off on the upper part of the engine on the steering arm. When I reconnected all of the wires and controls yesterday the engine will only go down. I only...
