You can move it !

Heavy Duty Outboard Engine Stand with wheels . Will accommodate extra long shaft motors . Had my 75hp Merc on it , easy to move around.

$50.00 

here are a couple pic of my fuel line with the collapsed lining.

Merc had problems with their older gray fuel lines where the inside of the fuel line separates and starts to brake apart clogging the fuel flow . If you cut the line near one of the fittings or bulb you will see the separation , if that is your problem. (if not just reconnect the line )  My Merc has a fuel filer  under the cover , you might see little pieces of the line in the filter . I have a 2002 15hp that had the bad line .

Good Luck

ditto on the fixed mount

It's crazy what batteries cost now but , I would never have just one . I have two connect to a switch one runs my main engine and all the accessories the other runs the kicker . If someone (me) leaves the lights on and the battery goes dead  i just flip the switch and run on the kicker batt .

Summer is to short to  miss a day of fishing for a dead batt  .

Good Luck !!

I would think if you set the motor on a block thick enough to get the maximum bit with the clamps and then use the holes on the engine bracket to bolt the motor to the transom you would be fine . Most kickers have holes on the brackets so you can drill into the transom and bolt them too. Also makes it harder for someone to steal your motor .

Hi !

I always pull my batteries charge them and store them in the basement for the winter. I have 4 seasons on them now .

Was wondering if they would go for a 5 th summer ? How long should they last ? ( dual starting batt )
