Wow. I missed this a year ago.

C&O marine in Tennessee(I think) Google

I just got a 5 and it shows that like all the other ones I've seen on start up only. Are you having battery voltage issues? My buddies HDS 10 started that every time he started big motor and it was fixed with a new battery. Corrosion on terminals¿

Did you upgrade wires? If you didnt I would solder and heat shrink. If it is going to get hot it will burn a butt connection faster. If not upgrade to marinco set for $20 at Walmart. Don't know if you read my reply in the earlier thread. Bill

The answer I got when I put my 80 Fortrex on was no. Unless I bought a hell of alot smaller motor. 10guage wire is what I had on mine from the factory. It is not worth the boat burning after spending a G on a motor, to scrimp on $100 upgrade. Wire was about $60 then the Marinco plug and...

I have three of the Walmart 29 series batteries in my 175. They performed very well. I used as the starting battery so I could listen to the radio, run electronics, and livewell all day an not have to worry about where the battery cables were. Completely satisfied. I have a friend using them...

If I am not mistaken that is either oil/overheat. I know that motor the magnetic oil sensor goes bad. $11 part. I am not a mechanic for sure, but could also be a stuck thermostat. Bill

Fortrex 80 without a doubt. Just upgraded from a 43# 12v MG. Man what a difference. Mount is rock solid stable. It has lift assist because it is a beast. Variable control with the maximizer, will make your batteries last all day through the chop. I should have upgraded sooner. Bill Kyte...

Just installed a Fortrex on my 02 PT175. Holes lined up just fine. My motor was installed with quick bolts. They are kinda like toggle bolts, slip them in the hole, start the screw and they pull up from underneath to tighten. They were quite a pain to get off. Minn Kota and connect pro are...

Need to re-prop the boat for a Tournament load. The motor is a 2002 40 Elpt. Also maybe in the market for a 75 Mercury optimax if anyone has one or is ready to upgrade. Send me an email. [email protected]

I agree with E5Zero contact Jones.

I have a 565 on the dash and moved the 128 up front. they do not swap although it does fit in the same bracket.

If you have a pair, please Post. I am also interested. Not to Hijack just to encourage people that have two and dont want to split. Bill Kyte Waldorf, MD

Try greatlakesskipper.com They have a lot of Nitro consoles may have the switches also. Bill Kyte Waldorf, MD

I would guess fogging oil also. I kirked also when I saw that little spot. Bill Kyte Waldorf,MD

Fished there a number of times. Tough place for me also. I fished 1 FLW tournament. Watched the guy in the front of the boat catch some fish but none for me. We fished the docks closest to channel swings and he was pitching a jig way up under them, I guess a senko would also work. We also...

I believe that Tournament is the FLW NE regional. Friend of mine scouted the place out a few weeks ago. He found some fish. There were pockets of cypress and some lily pads close to whatever ramp they were using for the tourney. Local guys and others told him most of the guys will be making...

Thank you everyone, You guys and gals are great. Keep up the good things that you supply us with, advice, humor, and friendship. Bill
