So I have the same problem with a 2011 185 sport. Only get the alarm over 3000 rpm's. It's very sporadic and the strange thing is, it only happens in the beginning of the season. Usually by July it stops completely. Where is the temperature sensor? Sounds like that's my gremlin. Next time...

What is the range on the gauge?

Did you ever find out what the range of the temp gauge is? I have the same boat and mine runs at 3,000 rpms just under 1/2 way on the gage. I would love to know what the temp range of the gauge is

Did you have any success with this. I also have a 2011 185 and need the sundeck. back seat and back rest upholstered. I would like just the skins and I would put them on myself.

Hello, Stupid question here because I didn't take a picture before I took them out. What is the correct wiring setup for a 2011 185 sport for the batteries. I assume a positive from the switch goes to each battery and then the 1 negative goes to one of the 2 and you connect to the other...

Risers. It's in salt water and raw water cooled.

hello, I got a 2011 185 Sport with approximately 180 hours on it. I just bought it this spring. I want to keep up on maintenance. Is there any way to tell if the risers need to be replaced? Engine temp is fine and I don't have any issues, but I would like to avoid them if possible. Is there...

I had to buy a new one also. Got it from great lakes skipper. Part number 1035224. It came with a frame that didn't fit but I removed the door and it fit perfectly on my 2011 185 sport

I don't know which drive it is. The port is a stock part. It came from the factory with it. Is there an easy to tell which drive it is?

When using the flush port on the stern do you run the engine? if so how long? Does it somehow stop sucking water through the lower unit when you use this port if the engine has to be run?

I am an a slip this year so I need to use it. Next year I will be on a trailer and I can use muffs. I want to flush after every use. I don't want to wait until October.

Do you run the engine while using this port? Won't it still suck water through the lower unit if the engine is running?

a 2011 185 sport here. When I connect to the flush port on the stern above the swim platform am I supposed to run the engine? Wouldn't it still suck water through the lower unit if the engine is running?

another silly beginner question. When using the flush port on back do you run the engine? how long should I flush it? Thanks

Seems to happen only when the boat is jolted, hits a wave hard. Only did it twice on Saturday. Fluids are good. Trim fluid might be a little low.
