Plenty of trash at my dock! Where the boat sits for the rest of the year! Sent from my XT907 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I paid 1500$ for my reman motor and did the work myself.. To each their own. Just be sure to do it nice not twice . . Sent from my XT907 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Ok. The one drop a month works for me. I don't fish Ontario just Seneca lake but I love these things. Plus they aren't bulky like the cannon.. Sent from my XT907 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I use Calcutta rubber bands to cinch the pinch pads a bit tighter. Works great for me. Good luck Nick Sent from my XT907 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Simple coil check for 12 at hot side and make sure key 12 is at post followed with 12 to post to starter. If so, your problem lies between the two. Be sure not to use a test light as a bulb lights with .3v half the time.. You want to see a good reading at the above studs on coil and starter. Be sure to double check the new starter was grounded properly. Check back with us. I don't own a merc outboard buy have had my hands in a few. I prefer the old model motors myself. Miss the smell of our 68 Larson with a 40 rude on her.. Sent from my XT907 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

My old dock neighbor used to keep his merc on solar charge. His motor would never crank if it didn't have 12.4 at all times.. Always double check those connections at battery. If even tight or appear clean. Clean them again. No sense in throwing parts at it especially if it's so simple. You said it just clicks. Is the starter engaging to the fly wheel by chance?

Sweet report! Super jealous! Nick Sent from my XT907 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I don't see an issue here. Seems ray k did a good deed for you.. Seems he went beyond what a normal sale would do. Best of luck. Sent from my XT907 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

It's unfortunate. Sorry to hear. I too had a deal similar to above noted post by slow rolling. Had a good deal. Spent an entire day to to see it. I inspect it. Guy thought I was going to pay. I was setting up a surveyor to view boat and the seller got shady. Quick. A survey is worth its weight in gold... So to speak. I bought my boat from a reputable marine. 300 hours a new motor... Please. Two years later it blows. That motor had more like 10,000 hours. The rings were so bad it was a joke. But I will continue to keep putting money in it. Its all part of the game! Last night I bough a jet ski. Cut price in half with guy if he wouldn't water test it. He wouldn't, so now its a gamble. I'm prepared. If it works cool. If not. No hard feelings. Good luck with the rest of your season. Nick Sent from my XT907 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
