    In need of a new capacity plate, any suggestions?

    gumbyjb, I've done dozens of searches, but have had no luck finding the same make and model, but thanks. SeaAyeOwe, that's a great suggestion, thanks. I don't have the owners manual, but hopefully will have better luck finding that online than the plate itself.

    just a heads up, Outboard Decals and Garzon Studio cannot reproduce without a template. Any suggestions where to find a template?

    1993 180 dash switch questions

    The fuel/priming pump seems to have a few people puzzled, so here is a bit more info on it. There is a hard fuel line about 4" long running from the fuel water separator to it. It's a round tube, about 2" long with 2 wires going to it There is another hard line coming out of it going to the...

    1993 180 dash switch questions

    Thanks all, it looks like some progress is being made. Since the red button at the bottom is the horn, it will need to be fixed, once I can locate it. The depth finder doesn't have a switch, it's hard wired and stays on whenever the engine is running. I'm guessing the top switch does nothing...

    In need of a new capacity plate, any suggestions?

    The capacity plate on my 1993 Sea Ray 180 is wiped totally clean. I contacted Sea Ray and was told they are not available. I've read about people having new ones made, or engraved at a trophy shop, using the old tag as a template. I have no template to work with, and can't find a picture on the...

    1993 180 dash switch questions

    With all of the other work I've had to do to get it back in shape to go into the water, I haven't had a chance to trace the wires. It looks like something else to ad to the list, thanks all

    1993 180 dash switch questions

    I have a 1993 180 that I bought which hadn't seen the water since 2003. I have been able (with the help of this site) get her running, but I have a simple question that I can't find an answer to, even in the owners manual. The dash switches on either side of the gauges have no markings. The 2 on...

    What is the make and model of my trailer?

    Thanks all for the suggestions. I ran with the possibility that it was a Shoreland'r, and after some research, found all the hardware needed to replace the bunks. Once I get the boat off the trailer, I'll be sure to give it a good going over, and if it seems to still be in good shape other than...

    What is the make and model of my trailer?

    Thanks for the help, much appreciated. I tried to post a couple pictures, but I'm not having good luck with it at the moment. I know what you mean about checking it over completely. The trailer overall has good bones, but I'm sure I'll find more surprises with the bunks once the boat is off of them.

    What is the make and model of my trailer?

    Last year I bought a 1993 Sea Ray 180 with the v6 engine in it. It's been 12 years since it has seen the water. I've got the boat almost finished, but the trailer needs some help. It's a simple single axle bunk trailer with rectangular taillights and white plastic fenders, but it has no markings...

    1993 Sea Ray 180 with frozen steering

    Your advice was dead on, thanks! just a couple raps on the nut and the assembly came apart no problem. Tonite I put heat and got the cable out of tube (20). On a side note, while working on the steering, I removed one of the risers to gain access. Is there supposed to be a gasket between the...

    1993 Sea Ray 180 with frozen steering

    Ok, I think I see what you are saying. I've already taken 19 out. Screw it back in and rap it with a hammer to break 17 loose from 10? This is great help, thanks
