    1991 johnson 200hp help!!! please

    are u talking about the 2 fiberglass pieces that the hood latches too? if so, they should be referred to as lower cowlings. i looked into replacing this as well, and even if you find one used, its probably in no better shape than what you have. from the dealer, if i recall it was around...

    I need a GPS Color Chartplotter and Radar in one unit HELP!

    might want to consider the standard horizon 300 with the external antenna. its a 7" screen and uses Sitex radars but doesn't require a black box to make it happen. down side is that there is no weather capability like the 3210 and the smaller screen. i've seen the standard horizon 300 with...

    1991 johnson 200hp help!!! please

    since you are replacing the powerhead, make sure you take those carbs apart and clean/service them and get them re-sync'd to make sure she's running right. if you take them apart and simply clean them, make sure that they have brown gaskets on on the sides, this was an update that was done...

    1991 johnson 200hp help!!! please

    dont sweat it about the bolts not being there. on my twin 200's neither flywheel has them, and i dont believe they are supposed to be in there while operating, just used as a lifting point. cheers, steve

    Trophy Pro Washdown

    its under the seat, along with the water tank. take the door/cabinet out and look straight down. pumps arent too expensive, and you probably should inspect the hoses while you hold a 4 year old child in there to look. (it is extremely tight to get in there!). Also, if you decide to chase...

    Toyota Tacoma Experience?

    you might want to look at the frontier...i looked at both trucks before buying the frontier. the nissan has much more power than the tacoma, and will readily tow more with ease (titan transmission and boxed frame). My 4wd auto crewcab frontier is rated at 6300 but has pulled my 25' trophy pro...

    mounting hydraulic steering....

    I'm restoring an 85 Trophy Pro. After having the transom checked out as ok (sat covered for 10 years), I glassed the top, gel coated it and made a massive support bracket for the twin Evinrude 200's. I'm ready to mount the steering cylinder again to the transom, and was wondering if anyone had...
