Ok Might be a few days before I can get into it, thx to all.

Yea its a tiller but the arm isn't on it but I have it I haven't paid him anything yet .I told him if I got it started I would and he's ok with that, its on the basement floor so I really haven't started on it just messed with it a little. It's a 2 cycle long shaft. It shifts into forward and neutral ok and I was on line checking the serial number and I think it's a 79.

Oh and the first snag I've run into is I can't get it shifted into reverse, and the starting rope pulls hard and doesn't come out very far.

the older ones were first made by yamaha.

Ok thx all I'll try and and get it started. Dave 216 are you saying that the mariner runs on 16 - 1 mix?

I got a chance to buy it for one hundred dollars been in storage a couple of years but he said it ran when it was put away. I pretty sure its yamaha built but being so old I'm not sure if it's worth messing with, any one have or had one? 689-301932 is the model number. just curious.

I think there called umbrella rigs.

I have some crank baits with metal lips most have plastic. Are the metals lips for strength or weight ,was just wondering , never really thought about it before.

Well boys I dont see any thing unusual in the oil not foamy or anything and the coolant hasnt went down at all from when I topped it off a couple days ago but I'll have it checked anyway. thx again. .

There would be a lot of white smoke coming out of the tail pipe if that were the case ,or am I wrong?

Ok Tybo I'll check it, I suppose your thinking cracked block? Hope not the trucks only got 80 thousand on it .

I haven't had time to check it out good but the fluid level was low and I added some anti freeze it seemed to help it. I'll check it closer when I get a day off ,thx again every one.

Ok thx a lot bernie. I never thought of that but then again I'm not a mechanic.

I've got a 2000 chevy silverado4x4, the last couple of weeks theres a sound like gurgling water in the passenger side dash. At first it it would just make the sound when i first got in and drove it would go away after a short time but now it keeps getting longer and longer before it disipates. Any ideas? thx.

Just saw that auger in cabelas bargan cave -new this week -priced at 299.00

Musta been a good deal not even showing now.

Sorry about your loss, We just had to put ours wiener dog down to a couple of months ago his name was Frank , those little guys sure grow on a fella.

I saw where a guy caught a 60lb flat head catfish on a lake about an hour north of me trolling a crank bait for walleye.

I've got that bag and it holds alot in fact I'm thinking of going smaller cause its so heavy to lug around.

We were at big gull lake near northbrook and always shopped at a little store in harlow untill they built the IGA in northbrook, anyway we were looking at the hotdogs and they were green, when I made a comment to the owner about the color he said they weren't ripe yet. I think we bought canned beef stew instead.

I'm hittin the ohio river at 3 for some walleye gonna be damp.62 here

Thats alot of figgerin to say its gonna be cool.

Very cool. Thx.

In all the years I've went to Canada fishing the only time we were stopped and searched was at lake Ogascanan in Quebec back in 95. We were on the far end of the lake 15 miles from camp when they approached us in their boat.
