Hey Ferm,
The other day, I decided to work on the Hydra. I've been frustrated because I swapped the motors with the V20 and I got the installs all done last Spring/Summer. Got the 225 to start with no problems on the V20, but for some reason, I wasn't getting any juice to the motor on the Hydra. I traced a bunch of wires and everything looked right, but it just wasn't working, so I gave up for a while (like a year!). Well, a couple weeks ago I decided to grab a beer and get on the boat and just think things through. I spent a couple hours tracing wires again, with no success. BUT THEN, I decided to mess around with the control, shifting the motor back and forth and trying to put it in neutral. Well, in doing this, the stupid button for putting the motor in neutral popped up and wouldn't you know it, that was the problem. After that, the ignition switch sent juice to the motor.
So, all that to say, I'm almost there. I have a couple of wires to some gauges on the instrument panel that I need to hook up along with soldering one of the purple wires on the ignition switch. After getting rid of about 15 or so more gallons of old fuel, I should be good to go!
Sorry for hijacking the thread, but Ferm asked ;-) Thanks for asking buddy...
