Helped me wrap it up! Thanks for the video! (New SPS kit came with a double female end on the wiring. In other words, everything was included)

It is necessary to lubricate the cone under the screw, so that it is easier to remove later, tested in practice

Is keeping the oil sensor connected the same as you going to make my engine cut off if the oil shakes around while I’m riding? I’ve heard of people having to keep theirs disconnected

@PolkFishin8 ай бұрын

I had that issue taking sharp turns down rivers. If I had to do it again, I would definitely bypass that sensor

how many hp does that engine have

That one was a 6.5 HP motor.

@PolkFishin9 ай бұрын

I don't recall. I think it will fit all motors up to 10 hp (for the small kit). Go to their website (mudmotorkit.com) and it will have the specs for it

@timwright79389 ай бұрын

I’m thinking about putting a 3hp or a 6.5 diesel engine on it .,, I think it would be a pretty cool build I don’t think it would be very fast but it would be durable I have a 14 foot jon

I'm tired of expensive maintenance on outboards. There not worth what you pay for them and expensive to have worked on.

@PolkFishin9 ай бұрын

I treated this little engine like a red-headed step child and didn't think twice about it. Definitely can't do that with a traditional outboard. Plus the parts are dirt cheap and readily available.

If it has a carburetor it needs ethanol-free gas …just sayin’.

@PolkFishin9 ай бұрын

It will still run with the regular mix

@ralphcantrell32149 ай бұрын

@@PolkFishin You are correct. Almost any engine will run on American "gasohol" of the recommended octane and suffer no ill effects - even ones with carburetors. The problem only rears its ugly head after an engine has been stored, or maybe even just sat idle for a couple of weeks, when the ethanol crystallizes and clogs the carburetor. And unfortunately, the smaller the carb, the faster it will happen and the more profound the problem will be. Curiously, this does not happen to nearly the same degree in fuel injected engines. It has to do with carburetors having a plethora of small jets and passageways inside them along with a pool of fuel that, through various air vents etc, are all pretty much exposed to atmospheric conditions. ...So just be aware of this and take proper precautions when not using or storing a carbureted motor, that's all. By the way... great video!👍Thanks for posting it, and I didn't mean to hijack it or sidetrack you.

Been thinking about putting one on my 14' Lowe for hard to get fishing areas and what size would you recommend on motor and kit?

@PolkFishin11 ай бұрын

Medium kit would probably be best, but I had a 22hp (with a large kit) on a 14 footer and it was very fast. The only problem I had was my transom flexing when i would gun it. If your transom can handle it, then put on a 22hp large kit

Great presentation and info. Have 15 hp Johnson. Barely used . I will be using on a creek to catfish and put out /take in fishing lines. No log jumping or mudd running but there are a few honey holes that are tough to get at. Question ? Do you think my Johnson is good for my needs or a 6.5 Preditor? I got the Johnson from a friend at a steal of a deal. Thinking about selling itnfor a set up like yours. Thanks and again, great video for us rookies.

You don't need a clutch, but you won't be able to cut the power to the prop without stopping the engine. It's not a big deal. You learn how to navigate with it.

I'm stuck on the kill switch, I bought the predator 459 and it has electric start. How can you tie that one in?

@PolkFishin2 жыл бұрын

Locate the wires for your engines On/Off switch and tie into that. You'll want to wire it so that if the kill switch is pulled, it opens the circuit like if you simply switched the engine to "off". Does that make sense?

How often do you do the oil change we use our big dog on 1 acre it was last serviced 2yrs ago and the oil is still perfectly clean. It looks the same as the new oil you put in.

@PolkFishin2 жыл бұрын

Typically, you want to replace the oil every 6 months if you use it regularly. If it still looks good though, I'd just roll with it.
