My VTS stopped working on my 2007 Seadoo RXP. When I press the up button there is a long beep after a 2-3 second pause.I wired the VTS motor direct to the battery and found it works perfectly.

Based on your description, it's possible that there is an issue with the VTS switch or a relay. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try:
  1. Check the VTS switch: Use a multimeter to test the switch and make sure it's functioning properly. You can also try cleaning the switch contacts with electrical contact cleaner.
  2. Check the relays: There may be one or more relays in the VTS circuit that could be causing the issue. Use a multimeter to test each relay and make sure it's working correctly.
  3. Check the wiring: Inspect the wiring for any signs of damage or corrosion. Make sure all the connections are clean and tight.
  4. Check the fuse: There may be a fuse that protects the VTS circuit. Check the fuse and replace it if necessary.
If none of these steps resolve the issue, it may be necessary to take the watercraft to a professional mechanic for further diagnosis and repair.

Where do I add fluid for the tilt trim on evinrude 90hp 2006 motor

The tilt and trim fluid reservoir for a 2006 Evinrude 90hp motor is typically located on the side of the tilt and trim unit, near the bottom of the motor. It may be a small plastic or metal container with a screw cap or plug. To add fluid, first, ensure the motor is in the full tilt-up position and that the tilt and trim system is not in operation. Then, remove the screw cap or plug and add hydraulic fluid until it reaches the full mark on the dipstick or sight glass. Use the recommended fluid type specified in the owner's manual or on the reservoir cap. Finally, replace the screw cap or plug and wipe away any excess fluid. It's recommended to check the fluid level periodically and add more fluid as necessary.

Where is the 85 horse Evinrude get its oil?

The 85 horsepower Evinrude outboard engine has a separate oil tank for its 2-stroke oil. The oil tank is usually located in the engine compartment and is connected to the engine through hoses. The engine's oil injection system will automatically mix the oil with the gasoline as needed, so the operator does not have to manually mix the oil and gasoline. It is important to regularly check the oil tank level and refill it as needed to ensure proper engine performance and longevity.

Anyone ever have issues with a Honda outboard shifter shorting out and shutting down engine when you push the throttle forward past trolling speed?

It seems like you may be experiencing a short in the neutral switch of your Honda outboard motor. This issue could be causing the engine to shut down when you push the throttle past trolling speed. If you're able to manually run the engine without the shifter and it runs full tilt, this could further support the possibility of a short in the neutral switch. You may want to have the switch inspected and repaired or replaced by a qualified mechanic to solve the issue.

I need owner manual for 1994 Cajun bass boat

It doesn't appear to exist. New boats tend not to have manuals for the boat, but you get a manual for the engine, one for the steering, one for the live well, etc. This is the closest I can find. http://boatspecs.iboats.com/Cajun_by_Mastercrafters_Corp.__160_Pro__1994/bp/66b12865 https://www.google.com/search?q=1994+Cajun+bass+boat+manual ..

2001 Polaris Virage TXi Jet Ski. Where can water be coming from while riding?

Check the seal around the water intake to the engine. Also check all the hoses on the engine. Your engine is a pump that produces a considerable amount to water pressure.

What should I look for in a structural engineer in Hull?

If you need to hire a structural engineering specialist, you first and foremost want someone with genuine experience. You should keep an eye out for companies that have a long-standing history within the region. For example, companies like GGP Consult offer access to the kind of structural engineer Hull developers should be looking for. Primarily, you should be focusing on finding someone who has designed something similar to what you are looking for. Look through their portfolio and ensure they have something in their professional history that matches up with what you will be building. While most structural engineers can be quite versatile, it pays to know that your selected expert has built something that matches your ideas beforehand. Focus on these areas when hiring a Hull structural engineer.
