I got a message from Vince at skidim.com - he told me to wire the black to a wire on my resistor - I'll give that a shot and see if it works, if not I may be calling you Sunday afternoon. I...

So do I have my starter and battery backwards??? The black wire that is hooked up to the ignition post is the one that was grounded. So I need a wire from my resistor to the starter relay,...

Thanks Michael - I'll take a look at it tonight. I was able to look yesterday morning and the ground wire does have an "I" on it.

So I've had time to think on this some...and forgot to mention that I installed an electronic conversion - maybe got the wires crossed there? I'll be checking and re-checking today.

Hey guys - I have an 89 TS6M, 240 hp PCM 351. Recently replaced the batter and starter relay. Last time I tried to start it the starter was locked engaged. In fear of doing that again (nothing like...

My 89 runs at 170 degrees all day long.

I would say that Rick is right on given what you've said. Are you turning the key and the starter just spins? Or are you getting a clicking sound? You can get the starter checked at just about any...

I finally got it all fixed- got out the multimeter and found what was my hot wire (turns out I thought I had the solenoid wire correct when I actually had the battery wire on the solenoid switch so I...

Rick - sorry to hear about your wife, with 3 little ones I don't know what I'd do to hold down the fort. Thoughts and prayers are with you on this one...
As far as the boat, we're over at my folks...

The only thing I can think of that he was talking about is if you look at an old Centurion Falcon and a Supra Comp - they look very similar...both low profile and a slight dip to the front. I think...

I was able to get back on my project today and the boat turns over just fine and seems like it's about to start running until I let go of the key. Once I let go of the key it stops cold. The other...

Doesn't get much better than that.

And that wake is exactly why I love my supra. I learned to ski behind a Bayliner when I was a teenager, then skied behind mastercrafts, brendellas, MBs - nothing quite like a Supra. I was reading the...

Allright, here's what I've replaced so far -
Battery last fall, in the past two weeks : starter, solenoid, ignition switch, positive battery cable, negative battery cable, solenoid to starter...

I think there have been quite a few posts by guys with similar issues - try searching for "hard starting" or "starting problems" or something and you should be able to get some decent information. ...

Looks like it just came off the showroom floor - awesome boat!

That thing looks great!

I'll have to take a closer look tomorrow after work to make sure I've got all the wires where they should be.
I was planning on taking the family up to Curlew Lake this summer, but Conconully is...

I did buy a new battery last August, right after I bought the boat and had it hooked up to a maintainer all winter. Before I pulled the starter it had plenty of juice to fire the boat up in my...

Beautiful boat, great pics. Once I get the boat running again I'll put up some pics of mine.

Can't wait to see some pics. the Conbrio is the open bow comp isn't it?

i'll see if I can find it, thanks.

You could check the Hull Id number and see what the year of manufacture was, maybe you have a '91 that was late enough in the year that they moved away from wood stringers?

does anyone out there have a pic of the wiring going to the tach or can anyone shimmy underneath and take one - my tach is not working, never has since I've owned the boat - I did find a loose wire...

That is a good question, what do you do with that much bad gas? A couple gallons - no big deal, run it through the mower but 20 gals...
