It is a 1989 engine and looks like the correct carbuator. Check roller in linkage that has a long curved slot, roller should have clear plastic sleeve, if sleeve is missing idle and advanced timing will be off. When I clean a carb,I use a strand of copper wire to clear all passages, when you are sure that carbs are clean and floats set, do a link and sync, dont skip any steps. Check plastic cap on fuel pump for splits, and bad orings, there is update kit for this.

Re: 1994 Evinrude 48

I have a 1988 Johnson 48 SPL with a poor idle. After reading this thread, I checked the "roller in linkage that has a long curved slot, roller should have clear plastic sleeve, if sleeve is missing idle and advanced timing will be off." <br /><br />In my case, the clear plastic sleeve has broken into two pieces, half of which is sitting in the engine pan and the other half still clinging to the cam follower. Question: Where can I get a new plastic sleeve or what parts do I have to get to get a new plastic sleeve?

Re: 1994 Evinrude 48

The roller and sleeve come as one part, dealer item.

The roller and sleeve come as one part, dealer item. Cant locate part number, I did a quick search. What is model number of your engine?

Re: 1994 Evinrude 48

J48ESLCCC. Is the sync cam supposed to be mounted loosely, i.e., a fair amount of play side to side?

Re: 1994 Evinrude 48

The 1988 48hp parts list does not show the curved linkage with slot. The pn for a 1989 48hp is 432572 and the roller on the carbuator arm is 397499. You should verify these numbers with dealer that has current manuals and bulletins. Your engine may be a late production model and have 1989 linkage.

Re: 1994 Evinrude 48

Thanks. Looking at a 1990 exploded diagram, the part I'm referring to is called a "throttle cam". The lower carburator has an arm with a cam follower that has a roller with a clear plastic sleeve. That clear plastic sleeve is what cracked in half. The throttle cam seems to be very loosely mounted (lots of side to side play). Is that normal?
