  1. Very sorry for your loss,Nick. Admire your ability to hang in there. Sent from my XT1254 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  2. Congratulations to you folks for prevailing in a tough weekend of fishing. You are definitely diled in, and a force to be reckoned with. See you next year! Sent from my XT1254 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  3. Great fish. Team HOP, like many others this year, had a grind all 3 days. Every fish we caught either had a lamprey attached or was marked up. Small size on our Lakers, did boat 1 rainbow that held up for fifth place on the board. Looking forward to next year! Sent from my XT1254 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  4. Very happy that the Finger Lakes Times has a derby article on the front page today. That exposure has been needed for years and will really help. Sent from my XT1254 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  5. HB2, you called it Changed diaphragm in fuel pump, no change. Talked w/ F. Barrett from .Barrett Marine, he insisted it was a fuel restriction problem. So, I installed new fuel line and fuel filter.The fuel line had indeed delaminated inside and in fact a small piece got up into filter. Motor runs like new now. I failed to follow the K.I.S.S. rule. (Keep it simple, stupid) Thanks to all who replied with suggestions.
  6. Les, you Northern guys always go for the bizarre stuff. Maybe you should stay over on Canandaigua lake this weekend. You've hogged the money board enough for a couple years.[emoji41] Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

  8. OK, must just have one, being a 3 cyl 90 hp. Tks. Ok Les, let the ball busting begin...
  9. HB2, I tried an external tank w/dierent fuel line, same results. Pap, are you saying there are 3 cdi? Not sure what you met. For the fellow with the 70 hp problem, I inherited a 1990 fuel injected from my dad, ran great, then started doing what you described. Took to dealer, put new "power pack in ran and still runs great. My kids abuse the heck out of that motor and it just keeps going. Les, thanks for the offer, but wouldn't that be aiding and abeting the enemy??! I pulled Dads egg sinkers, hooks, and needles out,e to I`ll drift w/sawbellies. I think most guys have gone into "stealth" modr this week. Have noticed something pretty interesting the last 3 weeks, will e-mail you.
  10. Thank you for your experience. I have pulled the fuel pump and am having that rebuilt. Will see how that does. For a non mechnics benefit, what is a cdi box and what does it do. Is it easily accessable on motor and easily replaced? Thanks again. I am starting t panic cause the Seneca Lake Derby is next week!

  12. You shouldn't need waders, but knee highs will help loading your boat. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk
  13. Just a quick remember, the wind switched from several days of North wind to South West today. Noticing lots of small to 5 footish sticks floating. Good fishing everyone. Sent from my XT1254 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  14. Yea, my bad. I meant the end of the wire that goes to the coil. It was 2 am when I wrote that!
  15. Thanks, I will check them. Is the plug wire that goes to the coil supposed to actually make contact with the top of the plug?
  16. low power 90 merc Ok fellas, first question. 90 merc (97) has been fine. Today started out ok then bogged down, couldn`t get over 8 mph. Going to try external fuel tank and uel line. Since it`s oll injection, is it ok to use fuel tanl w now oil in tank? IF That doesn`t work `m guessi g fuel pump. Is that changeable by a guy that usua;;ly changes plugs and filter? Any ideas appreciated. Hop
  17. Been there twice. It's a sight you have to see in person to really appreciate. Enjoy. Sent from my XT1254 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  18. Funny, I had thought the same thing. Where in the heck did those 30 years go... Sent from my XT1254 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  19. I'm going to be selling a 31 footer soon. Probably too big for you. Sent from my XT1254 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

  22. Much better screen than I had S of Lodi 3 days ago. Fish and bait few and far between.. Time to head North.
  23. I launched there yesterday to put boat in hoist for the year. Launching was ok. Lake was pretty rough out of North. Lots of debris in water. Lake temp. 46 out deep, 42 under dock.
  24. x~s 2 what Nick said. Was going to put boat in today, after seeing 15 foot logs floating, decided to wait till Monday. Just not worth taking a chance.
  25. I`d like 2 for 60$. Paypal ok?
