Jim,
Do you stock one like I currently have? The one with the black line then to gray line?
Thanks guys for the help.

I have been told to replace the fuel line from the mercury red label to the new blue label. Since my current fuel line has a larger black fuel line to the bulb then the red label gray line, do I need to replace the black line too or just the the gray line. Hopefully someone knows what I'm talkin abo...

It's a 2500 stradic mgF

I need to replace the piece that operates the anti reverse. The switch lever and the plastic part it is attached to comes out, so it appears that it broke on the end. Can I get this part or do I need to send the reel in?

Thanks,
Tracy

Remember back about 10 + years ago? Everyone: Skeet, Folkstad, Gliebe, Sapp, and Reynolds all rode in 18.5 ' boats. I drew Andre Moore once in an 18' Ranger with a 150 carburetor motor. That's what the sponsors provided and they were still beating everyone and making a career. If you're on fish, no ...

I have a 334C at the console and would like to add a temp. sensor. Can you give me the item number for this part. I saw one available for a 332, but not a 334.

I have a 10 + year old North Face Gore-Tex parka and it still looks good and doesn't leak. I use Cabela's guide wear bibs and they are also of great quality. I would say make sure it's Gore-Tex and you'll be good for years.

I have a 332 and an X17 that are linked. Can I unplug the 17 and just plug in another 332c to the same connectors? This would be running two 332C's.
Thanks

Trace

I have one you can have. Send me a pm

Happy Birthday !

Older and wiser. Now go fishing.

I change the impeller myself every two years and it always looks good. A friend who was a Merc mechanic told me that's what he did with his boats. It is easy if you take your time and have someone show you what to look for the first time. It's good to have some idea of what's going on with the outbo...

Trace

Where are the results?

Trace

I store my boat & trailer in the garage and replace the tires every 5 years. They still look good, but I have had problems after that. They always make it 5 years.

Trace

Are all the results posted?

Trace

Kent Brown,
Could you send me your e-mail?
I have a Triton question.
Thanks

Hopefully there is an electrical type person out here. I can buy a Lowrance to Pinpoint adapter cable for the transducer. What's the best way to get a Pinpoint to Lowrance cable? I can't seem to find one of these. I'm told they don't make one. If there is a place to buy double male and female adapte...

I had a similar problem and it turned out to be a crack in the oil reservoir cap under the engine cowling. It would leak down to the lower unit.

Trace

The 3 bank is an awesome charger. I have one and it charges my trolling motor batteries. It's not hard to just get a single charger for home and a lot cheaper. The 3 bank should be 15 amps each. I can get that single bank in the compartment when on the road at a motel, then just take it back out in ...

Trace

Thanks for the info.

Trace

I am considering buying a new 101 Fortrex Minn Kota. Does anyone know of any deals out there?
Thanks

Trace

Does anyone know if there will be a delta pro teen event this summer?
Thanks

Trace

After 6 or 7 years the battery died. I sent it in to cull-em rite. I think it was $50. The unit came back with a new battery, he said it was calibrated, and the decals had been replaced. It's been as good as new since.

Trace

I sent you a pm.

Trace

Thanks Martin.
Take care Bro.
Tracy

Trace

I am paid and on the waiting list as a co-angler. A pro sign up partner would get me in.
Thanks

Oh yeah. I've been there twice. Once, water got into the lower unit/motor. There is an "O" ring that can fail. Another time, it was the "fully sealed digital circuit board that never fails" that failed. Jay Liu fixed mine. He can fix it in a couple hours while you wait. It's just some cash.

Trace

I had this happen. I tried all the recommended fixes from Lowrance via internet and telephone. Finally, I was told to send the unit in with $260. They sent it back and it works fine now. I figured it wasn't worth much to me without a working GPS.
Good Luck.

Trace

I figure I owe an official Thanks! While fishing the Tracy Oasis tournament last Sunday my outboard's lower unit went out. Thanks to Terry Flowers who came out with his Stratos and towed me in and to Scott Delbridge and Joe Bricker for taking my partner and fish to the weigh-in. I never had to worry...

Trace

Sorry to hear the tragic news Mike. I saw how cool your dad was out there on the water with you. Take care. Tracy Patton

Trace

I you're gonna hook big uns, then get a flippin'stick. You need to hit'em hard and turn their heads. If you're looking for lake fishing, you can go with something less.

Is Mansoor putting one on?

Trace

The trailer brake pads are usually pretty common. You should be able to find a shop locally that carries them. You should be able to get the part #'s from a trailer or Ranger website. Or, pull off a caliper and take it to a shop that sells trailer parts and match up the pads. I recently bought a new...

I have found a rat once. I heard about a snake, but that one wasn't mine.

Trace

Bummer.
I guess it was going to happen sooner or later.
It looks like you're on the giants again this year Joe.
Trace

Trace

Yes,
I would also rough up both sufaces prior to re-gluing it.

Trace

I run a 99 187 with a 175 EFI and tempest plus 25p
I get 60 mph at 5600 rpm which is max rpm for that motor. I carry a lot of stuff and two people. I've hit 62 mph at best on GPS.
Tracy

Trace

Yes,
I got mine last Saturday. All the info. is the same as the web site.
But, you need to contact Bob by Friday if you are going and also to order dinner tickets. It should be a good event.

Trace

I have a Champion trailer for sale if interested.
Tracy (209) 986-1524
It should also be in the classifieds.

Trace

Thanks for the info.
I ordered the Powell from Escalon Bait.

Trace

Trace

Who makes a flippin' stick like the Powell or Dobyns with a telescopic handle? I have been told they don't make one, but I want the lighter rod without the forward cork.

Thanks

Trace

Why not say what brand? Shtuff happens with anything. I would like to know how the company takes care of you by standing by their product or not. I have heard of Ranger, Basscat, Champion, and Stratos owners tell me of a problem they had. They also said the company took back the boat and made it rig...

Trace

Mine did that too. Then it got worse and would go out after a few minutes. I had to send it in to Lowrance and they "fixed" it for $200+. It works good again. They told me there was a problem with the internal hard drive. There are trouble shooting guidelines to folloow for this unit as well as soft...

I was up pre-fishing Clear Lake two weeks ago when my trolling motor short circuited and would not turn off. I called Jay at 3:40 pm and he said bring it here and I'll fix it tonight. I ran down he lake to Redbud, put the boat on the trailer, and off to Redding I went. Jay fixed the trolling motor o...

Leroy Hickey, Do you want to fish Pedro this week?

Another thing that happens is if the lower units gets bumped on a rock, the "O" ring fails allowing water in. This gives the motor a mind of its own. It will run on high without warning. The difference between the switch and water in the lower end is the speed control will still work when the switch...

I have been using the berkeley clips in front of the metal clip and it works great on the smaller fish that need to be culled.

Is there a place to park an RV and boat near Bridge Bay? Going up to fish next week and would like to stay as close to the ramp as possible. I usually just stay down the highway. Don't need any hook ups. Thanks for any info.

Trace

Don't go.
I love Clear Lake! There will be 200 FLW boats practicing and a Nor-Cal tourney this weekend and maybe even a few clubs. If you don't mind a little company, go have fun. I went yesterday and fishing was pretty good.
Trace

Trace

14.5 hours driving time or approx. 750 miles if you take 97 south. I have driven it many times. I'll be making a round trip next week.
