My depth finder loses its depth reading at about

You need to set the transducer lower. When at speed, the hull of the ship raises up out of the water and hence your transducer is probably not deep enough at these times to give a proper reading.

I have a 1998 yamaha yz125. i recently rebuilt the top end. I also put new reeds in it, and new crank sills. It dont have any bottom end power once you get the rpm up you have alot of top end how can i get...

These bikes never had bottom end power, they only make it at the top. You would have to drop compression to help some at lower end but there would be sacrifices to high speed where this engine was designed to run at. Does it still have the factory pipe, if not it will be even worse! Sorry but in this case there is no good answer. Or at least one that you will want to hear.. Again sorry...

9.9 johnson want open up

Is it a reconditioned lower unit?

What sort of oil did you put in the lower unit?

Sounds like there is some drag in the lower unit causing the engine to bog down. It will work fine on a stand in neautral however.

How does it go in reverse on the lake? Can you get full throttle?

Problem with interference lowrance x25fishfinder

Transducer will stop getting readings if it gets air under it. If it's lower surface is too much above or below the bottom of your boat, this can happen.
