In the original post I said that a buddy had already taken off the carb and cleaned it. Didn't look that bad. After reading the first few posts I took the boat out again this after noon after dumping a bottle of seafoam in the fuel tank for the heck of it. The engine again bogged down and would...

I just bought a 14' alumacraft MV Jon with an early 80s 25hp pull start johnson. The motor starts fine, and works great in reverse and neutral. It will putz around fine in forward, but once you crack it open to get on pad the motor will bog down after about three seconds and if you don't pull...

I'm happy as a clam since I bought the boat of my dreams yesterday. It's an alumacraft all welded 1450 MV year model 1998. The lady I bought it from was very sharp and had already installed a floor, some storage compartments, interior lights, running lights, and an automatic bilge pump...

I'm new to this website, but must say there is a lot of great info on here! I am looking for a smaller Mod-V John that has a beam of 69" or less and will do close to 30mph with a 25hp. Apart from bassing on the Mississippi River, I fish tourneys on a chain of lakes with two boat passes under...
