thank you so much for the pictures. This should be a huge help. I never tried winding the spring further to get tension. I’m sure that is a big part of my problem. I will try to get the spring oriented like that diagram and wind some tension and hopefully that will do the trick. I will...
When I first got this motor the manual choke was working but not the electric choke. I put the plunger in the solenoid and the electric choke started to work, but would not return from being choked. When I got the electric choke working the manual choke alignment got messed up and didn’t work...
After changing my water pump my motor no longer locks in reverse. This causes the Motor to tilt up out of the water when giving too much gas in reverse. I understand how the spring and cam system is supposed to work to engage it. I popped the lower off today and I can’t figure out how to get...
Hi everyone. Just recently picked up a new motor to work on. The previous owner explained that it ran fine but one day it started smoking and shut off. He said it fired back up but died again and would no longer turn over. He replaced the starter and start solenoid with no luck. There are...
Hi everyone, I'm really thinking about picking up an older 65 hp Me . The guy is asking 150 for it with controls. All I know is it's got "good" compression but no spark. I know these motors have an odd distributor type ignition. I'm just curious how expensive this ignition system can be to...
Hi everyone, I finally got my motor running. It surprisingly runs very well aside from some throttle issues I seem to be having, especially at idle When in neutral and idling it seems very high. When I put it in gear it drops down to a more normal idle. But even then there seems to be slack in...
Thanks for th me help everyone. That link should help a ton. I will try to figuire out the wiring when I get home. honestly i have no use for connecting accessories to the junction box. Does the generator charge the battery at all? That vaccume thing makes sense, but where does that black...

Hi everyone. Decided to pick up this old evinrude tonight for 100 bucks. I kinda wanted a little project and a backup incase my main motor has issues. Anyways the guy said it ran good last year just had no use for it. He started it for a couple seconds on a little shot of carb cleaner...
Hi everyone, I'm trying to test the stator and trigger using a multimeter. Via a manual and online resources I've found that the specs are:
STATOR:
Black yellow(LS) to ground=3200-3800 ohms
Black white(HS) to ground=225-300 ohm
TRIGGER:
Brown yellow to brown white=750-1400 ohms
Problem is...
Hi everyone, I recently got a old evinrude 12/24 volt trolling motor from my buddy that came on his stratos bass boat. The motor is in excellent shape and it has everything with it. I tried to do some research and found that this is the high output model given away by the larger prop. I read...
Well the safety switch is on the controls on the right side of the panel. That is definetly in the on position. I think you put a clip around the switch and when you pull your lanyard away it flips the switch downwards in the off position. I have a wiring diagram but It doesnt seem to help with...
Hi everyone. So I'm going to start with some background info here. So I got the motor with the flywheel installed with the magnets off becuase they fell off. I planned to epoxy them back on but dropped one and broke one. So I bought a new one and installed it. And it was somewhat successful...
