Its probably Lake Area Marine. Theyre well known for their customer service. I agree i like south LA as well. But i like south MS better

Lake Area Marine?

Here's a picture of one. I think they look the best out of other brands. They have also proven to be reliable down here in SWLA. Theyre the same as Nissan, and to my.understanding all 25hp and under Mercurys are made in Tohatsu factorys by Mercury technicians. They're also fairly cheaper than...

Southwest Louisiana. If i can find a decent used etec id be happy but everyone who has one is hanging on to them. If i can find a good used motor thats only a year or two old and price is right ill jump on it. But now that i have money to possibly buy new i want to. Its worth the peace of mind...

Called earlier and a Tohatsu from the marine place by me is cheaper than online. Now just gotta keep sweet talking the wife......

Ive never owned a four stroke but am just looking at new outboards in general. I dont care whether 2 stroke or 4 stroke. I know the e tec is 2 stroke and the tohatsu is a 2 stroke as well. Im just curious as what evetyones preference is or what they would buy. My mind is pretty much made up on a...

Well i think i might possibly sort of kinda maybe have the wife talked into letting me buy a new motor. Looking at a 25-40hp tiller. My dad swears by evinrude and johnson. As far back as i remember we've only had two,motors. A 25hp evinrude and then a 25hp johnson we've had for the past 10-12...

Unless you want to get into shallower water i would go with a mod v. I have a 1648 with a 25hp and run 26mph. The ride diffetence between flat and modded isnt noticeable in glass conditions. But 9/10 times over here there's a slight chop and the mod v makes a world of diffetence. IMO mod v is...

I uploaded it to photobucket and tried pasting the img code and it says to wode https://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q304/thegr8cody/20121218_142303.jpg

Yes all the wires looked fine. Decided to pop off my flywheel and check things out and luckily i did. The stator and.timerbase were covered in oil/grease. Apparently my.crankshaft seal decided to go out on me. Gave everything a wipedown amd all my wired looked good. Stator and timerbase looked...

How hard is it to rebuild, im learning as im going..... How much would a shop charge to do it just in case i cant tackle it

Bulb is firm after it dies. It doesnt always die when i go to give it gas. If i get it started it runs fine. I can rev it while warming it up and it does fine. Its just the last two times i was on the water it started fine and idled fine just idled a little ways in gear then.went to give it gas...

Well i went to start it this morning before i messed with it again amd it fired up first pull. Ran for about five minutes on the muffs then shut off. Kept it same rpm the whole time as the last two times it was in gear and right when i went to take off it died. Thanks for the diagram im gonna...

Thats the way ive always seen people check for spark.

I took the plug out and made sure it was contacting the block. Had someone pull the rope while i watched for a spark....

Was running my boat last month and everything was going good. Was running wot and it just died. No spitting or sputtering just quit like i hit the kill switch. Then nothing..... Couldnt get it to fire. Got it home and tinkered with it a while got it to run for a minute so took it to run it. Made...

Neither, they just come sealed in silicone. Im gonna get somewaterproof double sided tape to stick them to the.boat then use clear silicone to seal/glue them in the rub rail

Oh yeah!

Yea they arw bright. I put them far enough apart where they wont they wont hit the winch post on my trailer and whenever I pull up the a dock I never go nose first. I always tie up from the side.
