I must thank you for allowing me to get such great content from your seminars and traveling with you exploring how you diligently work your fantastic Farm or should I say Ranch. You are indeed an inspiration.
the one you have on yours is a plastic cap, the one you sent me is aluminum does it matter? Is the rubber grommet supposed to go in the opening from the impeller housing or just over it?
Hi My friend, the metal cap is fine it's the original part. My plastic cap came with my kit. The rubber piece goes over the top and then the cap goes on top of it. I hope this helps you.
@@fishinhookie9439 yes, it did thank you, I have the plastic ones just like yours I took my boat out for about 6 hrs today and the alarm only came on once for about 1 minute it wasn't pumping water when I had it on reverse, it has new spark plugs, lower unit oil, new stater new fuel filter, idk what else to check idk if you have run into this same problem.
Hey Captain Pedro, #1 make sure water is hot coming out peeing. #2 sensor maybe wearing out. Just a thought. #3 what type motor you have, horsepower, year. #4 thermostat sticking? Seem like you on top of everything. Great job. Motor safe Captain Pedro.
@@fishinhookie9439 I have a 1998 Mercury 120 2-stroke. I have the thermostat out since I live in a hot area "Maryland " and i haven't check the sensor .
My man, I hope this helps. Parts info Mercury Quicksilver 42461a 1 - Sleeve/ring Kit is equivalent to parts: 98-205-23K SEI Marine 98-205-23K SEI Marine 11193 GLM
Yes bennets creek is rough at low tide. Portsmouth City Park is okay to use at low tide. It's about 5 to 7 feet at docks end. I never had any problems launching with 3 foot draft. Stay safe captain.
great video. i wouldnt use RTV but hey wont hurt anything accept look ugly i suppose. the "retaining clip" is actually a spacer. apparently keeps the t stat center, and channels water in a downward motion especially at low speed presumably for more uniform cooling. i have seen many of those missing. cheers thanks again!
When the light is triple flashing, a battery terminal fuse has broken or your battery has fallen below the minimum operating voltage, '10V' was mentioned. Your battery is no longer able to receive a charge to get back to 12V+. The good thing is you can still start your boat motor to get back home with the other battery. If I have provided incorrect info, I'm sure someone will correct me.
I have a 1996 19' CC Trophy. Same rear deck set up. My right side compartment has the bilge drain hoses so I can't put a second battery in there. I ended up putting my house battery under my center console. I love this boat but the bilge design is dumb in my opinion. Everything from the fish lockers drains into the black box for the bilge pump including the over flow from the live well. Then they drain the bilge from the front of the boat trough pipes leading to the rear bilge box. Instead of those drains going into the the black box they go under it. The bilge pump box has holes in the bottom to allow the water to rise up into the box and be drained by the bilge pump. The problem with that is once the water dips below the bilge pump box it cant be drained by the pump. So water is always in the bilge. They didn't even put a drain through to the plug hole so the water can't escape out the drain whole. Instead they have a hatch with a second bilge pump in the compartment but that only there to drain the second compartment the water from the rest of boat can't get in there to drain out of the drain hole.
Hello my friend it sounds like you on top of the bilge problem. Maybe you can tilt the boat up so the water drained out. My boat have four scuffers that allow water to go overboard also I have a drain plug lower back bilge
@@fishinhookie9439 The bilge design on this trophy is crazy. It drains from the front through drain pipes to the rear bilge pump located under the deck hatch. The bilge pump itself sits in a black box with hoses running into it from the fish lockers and fish locker scuppers in the groove of the fish locker hatches. The water in the bilge comes from the front to drain but it goes under that bilge pump box and seeps into the black box through holes in the bottom of the box. Once the water rises enough in the box the float switch turns the pump on. The problem is theres alway water in the bilge because the pump is 2 to 3 inches from the hull bottom. I read that there is a forward bilge pump but I cant find it. I think some genius punched holes in the bottom of the black box the bilge sits in to use just the rear bilge. Probably was to lazy to fix the front bilge pump. It's bizarre they put a bilge pump in the rear of the boat down in a hatch where the plug goes but theres no way for the water from the front and mid section of boat to drain out of the damn plug hole instead it all gets trapped and the bilge has to be run to drain the water out.
I am interested also. Years ago I put a rear trolling motor on my boat that only top speed of 6 knots. 20 ft cuddy. But now faster speed electric would be better. Thanks for supporting.
