Started up my 82' 115 to check all systems before tomorrows run. Started up after after 2 or 3 attempts, then ran like usual at idle....a little rough , but the engine was cold after not being run for a month or so in north east here, but eventually came around to smooth idle.
After just a...
Hello all. Just a quick question if there is such a thing.<br /><br />Need to lube my hydraulic steering on my 82' Evinrude 115. The armature that is pushed out by the piston in the steering assembly in front of the motor, is very dry and dirty looking. Looks like they made it real easy to...
Hello to everyone. Have we all been here before? Get the boat in the water...start backing up, the trailer is long gone at this point being parked, by my trailer captain..hopefully not pulling some as*&oles fishing line with him, because you no nobody pulls their lines or crab traps out of the...
Hello, I am trying to install a radio on my boat, while simplifying all the dead-end wires that were previously installed.<br /><br />I noticed that some wires jump from one switch to another, such as my gas guage connects to my light switch or vice versa as well as some others. Could this be a...
I don't want to wear out my welcome, because I have gotten more help & advice from this forum than I could have imagined, but I have no idea what this is, I think something with the choke, but whatever it is not hooked up to anything.<br /><br />1983 EVINRUDE 115<br /><br />Picture 1 (the wires...
I noticed recently that my boat is still draining water out of the hull, even after sitting a few days or week.<br /><br />I was following my buddy who was trailering it for me the other day...every time he took off from a traffic light, water would come out. Not huge amounts, but nevertheless...

Just put new power packs, plugs and wires on my 115 Evinrude (1983). Running it in gear with some throttle (upto 4000 rpm)for s short time to make sure everything is working the motor makes a kind of garbling exhaust noise...not a precision "prrr". Is that just the way it is being a 2-stroke...
Engine has been running great. Intermittent sticky starts, but overall pretty good. Running it this last weekend, I lost spark in port-side 2 cylinders (V-4). Kept running though, I guess on 2 cylinders...real rough and wouldn't do much even with WOT. Threw new plugs in, still the same...
