    Ya, I wasn't so much trying to rebuild it without taking it apart. The honing of the cylinder walls was to see if any compression was re-gained. I'm sure it needs a full rebuild. Looking at $1200-$1500 in parts, a month or so in work, another $??? in more parts and experience. And still be using...

    1995 Evinrude Ocean Pro 200 Carbed 2 stroke Flooding out at speed

    Great info guys. Thank you. I will be out there tomorrow working on it. I’ll post my results of checking compression, fuel bowl/floats. And I did not change impeller and/or lower unit oil.

    Hi: This boat is new to me. 1995 Wellcraft 218CCF with a 200 Evinrude Ocean Pro Outboard. I don't know how long it sat before I bought it. We have been stranded at the local lake twice now. I will not put it into the Pacific ocean until we solve this issue. While running on plane at 5500 RPM...
