Thanks for the replys. The output test is the next test I want to do but the battery was getting low so I didn't want run it down. Maybe tonight. I also want to pull the flywheel just to make sure nothing is grounding out. I am a auto tech by trade so I have just enough knowledge to be...

Well I opened the holder and seen it in there but I honestly didn't check it. Probably need to do that.

I need a little help trying to figure out this problem. I have a 1992 60hp evinrude that was running great last season and now has no spark. I followed the shop manual the best I could. So far I have checked the kill circuit, seems to be working good. No ground when checking it, I pulled the...

Not much got accomplished due to the hurricane like wind and pouring down rain. I did however cut the other foam box open and dug down to the floor. Pretty much more of the.same. although I did find two more corrosion holes. Who knows how long they have been there and how much water was...

Great tips guys, at least I have some options. I'm going to try to knock one side out this weekend. I will let y'all know how it goes.

Thats pretty much exactly what I needed to know fellas thanks. Also i do have one place that corroded all the way through, what would be best to seal it. Would marine tex work? Then once the corrosion is gone do I skim coat the divets with anything? That's where I figured the gluv it would...

Thanks for the tips on paint guys, that is the plan. I thought about using gluv it on the bare aluminum then primer and paint, what do you guys think? Also, I have some corrosion pits in there, someone mentioned using a vinegar water mix. Let it sit and then flush the area with water. Then...

Agreed. Remember that a v hull boat obviously drains different than a flat bottom. The two outside channels that run the length of the floor, run directly into the foam boxes. The foam sits on the floor thus trapping the water. My boat is a 1988 Lowe husky boat, this is the first problem I...

......hmmmm. Obviously, some of us completely don't understand what I am talking about. I'm not going to repeatedly explain that no matter how much you drain, dry or wipe you are not going to get the water out of rear enclosed foam boxes on a flat bottom boat. Thanks to all the others for...

This was to just inform people that factory foam can cause more problems than just weight. My boat is flushed each time I use and then is kept in a covered driveway. The problem is the foam and the design. There is no place for the water to drain out of the foam. The boxes are not totally...

First off, I am FOR having foam in my boat. My boat is a lowe husky 1860 that I use only in saltwater. I have been having some problems with corrosion, well after doing some research I found that I have made some bonehead mistakes as far as wiring and battery placement. I have already fixed...
