    30 gph v 60 gph Honda 150

    This is what the Honda site says for the 60 gph filter: 60 GPH Racor Fuel/Water Separator Assembly BF75/90, BF115, BF135/150, BF200/225/250 06177-ZW1-801AH The Honda 30 GPH filter doesn't specify. Also, I was interested in a new clip on Parker filter but the site said the 30 GPH version...

    30 gph v 60 gph Honda 150

    Catleen came with a 30 gph fuel/water filter but it looks like 30 gph is not recommended for 150 HP engines. I bought a 60 gph Racor to swap out for the 30 gph. Any downsides to going big?

    Raymarine EV-200 for 25' Cruiser

    Excellent. Thanks for the feedback. BTW, I tried the Raymarine 800 number and it was answered by "Bray & Scarff Appliance Repair Service." I have a message into the tech support number.

    Raymarine EV-200 for 25' Cruiser

    Has anyone installed the Raymarine EV-200 autopilot on a 25 Cruiser and networked it to a Raymarine C80 chart plotter with radar. Feedback is welcome. A number of questions come to mind: 1. Is the EV-200 the right unit for the 25 Cruiser? 2. Will the "EV Sensor Core" become a de facto...

    Raymarine S1000?

    The EV 100 looks like an impressive unit. I need to check to make sure it interfaces with my Raymarine C80 and radar. Thanks for your feedback.

    Raymarine S1000?

    I'm seriously thinking of installing a S1000 autopilot (if I can find one) on my 25' Cruiser with a single 150 Honda. Here are my initial questions: 1. I know the S1000 has been discontinued. Does Raymarine offer another product that will do the job better? 2. I want to interface with...

    Honda Service Manual PDF

    For anyone interested, I bought a Honda BF150 Service Manual searchable PDF from a source in the UK off E-Bay for around $15. It works and appears to be the real deal. Here's the link: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Honda-BF135A- ... OU:US:3160

    Impeller replacement on Honda 150

    Sorry, I'm operating a bit in the dark, here. What are the low and high pressure fuel filters in a BF150? I've found a schematic of the "Vapor Separator Assembly" with a filter in it. Is that the "high" pressure filter? If so, where is the low pressure unit? Also, is there a better choice...

    Impeller replacement on Honda 150

    I cheaped out. Bought a CD on Ebay from someone in the UK, total $15. If that doesn't work, I'll buy factory and lug the paper around. I used to haul a good 30 pounds of manuals and documents onboard and slowly but surely, I've replaced them all with PDFs on my iDevices. Much slicker and...

    Impeller replacement on Honda 150

    It looks like the "Honda BF135 BF150 Marine Outboard Service Repair Shop Manual" is $114 on Amazon. What bums me is that it does not seem to be available as PDF. Who in the heck wants all that paper?

    Impeller replacement on Honda 150

    Thanks, Charlie. I saw that earlier post about 650 hours and thought I might be over-reacting. Years are probably a concern as well as hours if the impeller is made of rubber, right?

    Impeller replacement on Honda 150

    My 2004 B150 has less than 200 hours on it and I'm thinking of replacing the impeller. Here are my questions: 1. Should I? It seems like a number of C-Brats have gotten major hours on their equipment without obvious wear. 2. Does anyone have a link or PDF of the factory procedure? 3...

    Raymarine Raydome Problem

    The Raymarine v4.29 software uses the GPS input for "heading." It's not always perfectly accurate and there have been law suits backed on inaccuracy so a couple years back all radar-chart manufactures changed software to require external heading sensor input. The GPS has always been "accurate...

    Raymarine Raydome Problem

    I've just sent my Raymarine raydome in for diagnosis, it's not transmitting. It has less than 250 hrs of use. The local Raymarine tech told me that he's had a lot of problems with Raymarine and has stopped selling their products because of it. He says Garmin is the best radar-chart plotter...

    Autopilot brand

    Thanks, Charlie. I've got a 150 Honda. Do you think the system can handle the weight and torque? Btw, did you use to dock at Columbia Island by the Pentagon?

    Autopilot brand

    I'm just about to pull the trigger and buy an autopilot for Catleen (25' cruiser). She has a Raymarine c80 unit on-board that I'd like to use for course input. Any suggestions?

    Battery selection

    Does it matter which battery you switch to when you anchor for the night? It seems that the Number 2 (port side) battery may be wired directly to the Wallas? Thanks for any input. SJH

    Wallas 95D Heater Cover Fan Not Working

    I tripped the microswitch with a fillet knife and it seems to be working fine -- for the moment.
