  1. greetings from louisiana i just bought a 1991 ranger comanche 391V with a 2000 yahama 200 v-max ox66. 14X26 4 blade prop type unkown. it has a 12 inch Manuel jack plate not sure of the brand. motor guide 67# 12/24 volt trolling motor looks almost new not sure of age. it has hydraulic steering and a screw in drain plug i think these are newer items. not sure trailer is in very good shape new tires, bunks look all most new and only a few specks of rust on the trailer. bought it from a man who's father bought it new and died so the son knew very little about it. he said his father had it refurbished about 8 or 10 years ago. he was not sure just what was done but he said it had new carpet. paid $6200 for it just want to know every thing good and bad about the boat and motor or up grades that would improve it. things like rough water ride speed and handling. motor problems your friend mike moss

  9. let start from the begining compression 135,135,135,133 carbs rebuilt 5 months ago at dealership only run about 7 hours over 3 trips. i have a good battery and i even jumpered two of them together to test starting. have plenty of water coming out of the prop and weep hole. i ran it for about 7 to 10 minutes today and the water coming out of the prop was just luke worm when i turn the key and try to start it it makes one reverlion at a normal speed and then turns over very slowly until it starts. it sounds like it has a week battery but i know with 2 jumped together on it. it should really spin. when it starts on the water hose it really puts out a lot of smoke. it reveses up ok. but if i kill it and wait a few mimutes it does not want to start. it will still turn over slowly and the cables start to get worm. i turned the key for about 5 to 7 seconds at a time. if i let it set for a half hour it still turned over slowly but starts. willing to try anything mike louisiana
