Hello all I’m back again with a new project. I had this evinrude given to me I’m told it ran with the current setup but lost spark and that was it. It has a msd street fire cdi on it instead of the own pulse box. Beings the pulse box is unavailable or 500+$ I can see why it was pulled if it had...
So replaced r/r, stator, and ignition fighting my charging issue.
So following cdi's trouble shooting if I jump the purple wire to a positive feed wala boat charges. What's the issue with leaving the purple wire on the ignition side of the start solenoid so it's only hot while keys on as a...

Hello every one so I have been doing more night fishing then usual because it seems to be the best bite and my schedule doesn't allow much daylight. So I want to put some lights around the boat so I know what's coming up. I don't want to reach over thinking I have a flounder on to find out its...
I bought a brand new top from west marine just mounted it this year. It has the cover for storage with is great and it has been in this stowed position for roughly 3 weeks and today I went to open it and it was sticking to itself and the cover and almost feels like it rip if I had let it go...

Yet it still doesn't charge at all. While running wot I only have 11.9-12.3 what's left? I tested continuity across the wires and they all have continuity I was...
1988 J150 My starter would click a few times but would turn over every time never had to beat on it or anything like that. But to avoid any future problems I purchased a new starter and replaced it and figured I would rebuild the old one new brushes and ect as my spare. However even after the...

Re: johnson/evinrude mid '80's control box
if the new switch is a sierra brand I would strongly suggest double checking the markings on the new switch as to where each wire will go.
I have replaced the plugs and wires. Cleaned and went through each carb. Replaced the reg. rect.
Its a random act only at idle once in gear its fine runs great all day long. If I pump the primer ball this some times seems to get better the fuel pump was changed also no difference from the old...
Is there anyway to check the vacuum switch it has a hose coming from it that goes into the t and continues as part of the fuel system. Any basic things I should know about it or inspect? Just one of those things on the engine over looked time and time again. Also same for the pulse limiter I...
