  1. Have you tried only disconnecting the gray tach lead ? A bad tach can cause weird things. Does the tach work?
  2. He needs to swap that stator, then it'll be fixed. And if not then I give up. I ain't making his problem MY problem. 😂
  3. Yeah, I should have never quit the chronic. 😎
  4. Since yours, if I understand correctly, is only loosing performance above 1/2-3/4 throttle the output on the stator needs to be DVA tested. Without a serial# I can't know which ignition (CDI / CDM) your Mercury has. It's that whole memory thing again. 😊
  5. Oh ok. I can't keep all the people and boats straight in my memory anymore. Either there has been too many of them, or Alzheimer's is starting to set in. 😊
  6. Need a Serial #. A 2002 75 could be a 2S, 4S, or a DFI. Sounds like it is lean on one or more cylinders, but it is best to start your troubleshooting by first verifying that cylinder compression, and ignition output is good on all cylinders. Eliminate any problems there first, and THEN you can attack a fuel system issue.
  7. If you ACTUALLY listen (pay attention) to guys that ACTUALLY fish and ACTUALLY know what they are talking about then you should do fine. And if you don't know who those guys are yet.....then you are not ready to consider doing anything. Figure it out. 😊
  8. I don't necessarily want them, but hearing them wouldn't ruin my day. It should make perfect sense. Babler caught that fish several days ago, and people are STILL upset because a few guys (I assume they are guys) poo-pooed it. I mean did anyone really think that nobody out there was gonna have the thought that a big triploid brown caught within a few miles of a hatchery doesn't somewhat taint the meaning of "a record"? If so then you probably belong in a nut house. 😂
  9. The lake is full, you're fine.
  10. Avoiding social media in order to shield yourself from the TRUE AUTHENTIC thoughts of the people that surround you, is a guaranteed way to live stupidly. If you can't handle reality then you just might belong in a mental institution, because eventually you're gonna get some news that will break you bad.
  11. I recall hearing (from the inner circle) about one that MDC shocked up and killed at Taney that at the time would have beaten the state record by a long shot. It didn't recover from the shock so they put a hush order on it, and swept it under the rug. Anybody here know exactly how big that one was, and if it was a rainbow or a brown? I think that would be a good place to redirect the ones bellyaching about Mr. Bablers fish. 😊
  12. It's not even worth thinking about. Bill is the state record holder for Missouri Brown Trout. And that's all that matters. Personally since she didn't make it, I'd have her mounted and display it in my home or place of business.
  13. They closed it to camping too ? So now it's just a place to pull off the road and have lunch? How lame!
  14. Wonder why herons never stab SUCKERS ?
  15. Pete, he eats PUSH PINS ! 🙄 I love him...but he's an idiot
  16. Eberlin's has sold alot of outboards. One of the (if not THE) oldest outboard dealers in the state. I see thier stickers on motors dating back to the '50's. I'd love to see a business profile on them. They obviously did something right.

    I can get real serious about bluegill fishing. Just gotta find them pushing 10" and I'm all about it.
  18. I've always heard a bird dog that won't hunt called a "Roop". This here is a Roop
  19. I'm not a Ford guy.....but a buddy from high school had that very same truck and it was a beast in the mud. Light front end, and geared perfectly. I had a '68 Chevy CST with a big block 396 and he pulled me out of the bogs more than once.
  20. I'm tossing the idea around, I'd be so much happier with that old Johnson. I'm not gonna stand in anybody else's way TODAY......but if they are interested then they'd better pounce before I get paid again. 😊
  21. Yeah I'm upside down. It's worth more parted out than it is as a running motor. The freakin' tiller handle is worth 350 to somebody that needs one. 😅 So is yours BTW 😊
  22. Well, I have +850 invested in it. But if I was selling it I'd be lucky to get 600 I don't like it â˜šī¸
  23. What a SWEETHEART ! 😍
  24. Well it wasn't built right then, was it? 😂 They're wasting your tax dollars if they build a ramp at the end of a river/headwater of a lake that isn't braced up to withstand a flood. They've had a whole year to fix it.....and they are still dicking around? Time to start clocking them out for lunch. 🤔
  25. I'd be all for it, if they'd just quit stabbing the Smallmouth and Trout. They just can't seem to resist poking everything that gets in their stabbing range.
