Re: What do yall think bout this one?
 

Knitting

Re: What do yall think bout this one?
 

Come on now, no knitting on this site. Your in the Brotherhood now. We just need to find ya a good V.
You a cuddy man or a CC man.

Re: What do yall think bout this one?
 

Thats not fair!! >:( Skools has enough boats!!

Re: What do yall think bout this one?
 

Really I am going to wait a little while. I don't have the time to do a resto on a boat right now and don't have the money for a nice one. I have a perfectly good boat, it is not exactly what I want but it works fine for 75% of my boating.

And I have a GREAT motor!!!!!

I may decide to sell my rig, and then I should have plenty of dough for a nice V. It's just hard to decide to get rid of a perfect motor (except for being a 20"er). And yes I know that I could get a V with a 20" transom but I already have a boat with a 20 inch transom that I don't care for in the ocean.

So there you go.

As for cuddy or cc, I like a cc, but that dual console seems to be the perfect family boat that you can fish with. My current boat has a "cuddy sort of area" under the bow and the kids like getting under there in their bean bag chairs for a nap now and them.

Re: What do yall think bout this one?
 

Stop playing online and getter done !! . ;D

Re: What do yall think bout this one?
 

I here those loopers will fly, but dont idle as well as a crossflow.

Re: What do yall think bout this one?
 

Damm, thought is was Randlemans Starcraft he was suposed to post for us. :-/ :-/ :-/ ;D

Re: What do yall think bout this one?
 

you can fix that idle turn up the idle screw 1/4 turn fixes them the worst idling motor i ever had was a crossflow 115 Johnson.

Re: What do yall think bout this one?
 

My 83 1.6l(115HP) sea-drive idles pretty crumby to. It won't hardly run at all unless it's on 50:1, 25:1 had it poppin and belchin somethin fierce.

Many of the bad idling loopers are ones that are in need of overhaul, or ones improperly rebuilt.

My 140 looper idles pretty good after I rejetted it. But man is it hard turning over. Started it today and ran it with some ring free so I can hopefully take it out this weekend.

Re: What do yall think bout this one?
 

my old 115 was low on compression on one cylinder by 12 psi to the other 3 which caused mine crossflow motors need their compression even or they suck at idle.

Re: What do yall think bout this one?
 

Mine barely has an hours run time on it since rebuild, so I'm still waiting on the rings to seat. But it did have 90 even on all cylinders before rebuild, but it wouldn't idle for crap. The best idleing engine I have is a cross-flow engine though, an 80 35HP JOHNSON. It will purr right down to 400 RPM's in neutral, and had it running at 350 in gear before.

I hope I can run it some tommorrow now that I've got another lower unit for it. Want to get some runtime on it before I park it for a new transom.

Re: What do yall think bout this one?
 

I smell something foul about that motor you posted skools?? Looks to me that the paint and decal are not the oringal?
I noticed a croked line near the bottom of the decal paint? ;) ;D

Re: What do yall think bout this one?
 

I agree with MJ. I think maybe its a Force motor painted up to look like a Johnson. :o ;D

Re: What do yall think bout this one?
 

I will get those pictures as soon as I don't have to work every %$#@& day of the week.

I'm @ work now......on my 15 min break of course.
