Anyone? Buehler?

So I got this all cleaned up changed out all the fuses and still nothing. Runs like a top though. This did cure the battery going dead all the time. That's about it though. I put new gaskets on the electrical boxes.

Changed out all the oil lines and fuel lines. I just checked one oil line and it cracked right in my hand. So I decided to change all of that stuff out.

So there are a few holes in the gauges in the back. Which one should I put a drop of oil in. Any other ideas what I might try or test? Everything electrical works on the boat except the gauges

Thanks for the help!

OK, so after working on it last night the fuses were good although I discovered a mess in the electrical boxes for both the port side motor and starboard motor. Both were heavily corroded and the port side was missing the gasket so it was full of water. Tonight I will clean up the connections and install a new gasket and see what that does. That could be my issue I hope. However I noticed a bad through hull fitting on the port side reverse/forward cable that is broken. I will try some special caulking that cures under water and bonds to anything from 3M.

After all this I looked at the side of the boat[attachment=1334:electric box.jpg] an realized my boat is a 1800 sportster

Thanks Kevin, I will look when I get home. I downloaded the manual and printed that off already. I will update tomorrow. Thanks

Where are the fuses? If its not that I will try Overkills idea.

I bought this from my folks where it has spent the better part of 8 years going to the lift in the spring and back to the trailer in the fall. We cant find the manual so I need to get one. They bought it new in 98 so we could tube and ski etc. I had to do a lot of work on it to get it running again like carb kits, wear rings, impellers, oil and gas lines and filters. Sitting was not good with a bad cover either. One we began using it this year the seats cracked etc.. We have a larger boat so we drag this with us and tube and ski the kids and rip around in it. We even used our 93 sp this weekend that is all original less a carb kit. Any hints are helpful. A friend recommended I join this site because of the wealth of knowledge here. Glad I did. Thanks!!!!
