Nate, Somewhere I have a link where you can get a rebuilt powerhead and turn yours in as a core or you came have yours rebuilt. I'll post it as soon as I can find it.

So how big is your boat?  I have a 175 Johnson of the same vintage as yours and I would make a deal just for you.   :D

Thanks for the reply, and please post the Company. Sorry, but I have a 17' Aquasport. Your 175 would sink my boat!!

Wow, I didn't know the bad rep went beyond THT.  I read that thread on A1 on THT as well, and it stretched out several pages.  Many many angry customers.  Beware!!!
