So I have been trying for weeks to get this dang thing running. Have no spark and it has a new CDI unit and plugs. Friend told me that the stator could be the problem. So I have been trying to remove the flywheel and keep breaking the bolts on my puller. Grade 8. This morning I launched one...
How can I determine that the timing is correct between the engine and distributer without using the so called special tool that is described in the repair manual. With the flywheel 0 mark at the TDC line on the timing gauge, the line on the distributer gear lines up with the flywheel. I have...
What should the resistance be for the wires, including the coil wire. I only have 2 to 4 ohms. As a auto tech I know as far as cars are concerned it's more like 8KM
How reliable are this CDI units? And shouldn't I be getting power at the grey wire to the coil? I bought this about 3 years ago and has been doing great but now I have no spark. I have power to the unit but if I'm correct I should have power at the grey wire to the coil. I haven't checked the...
Engine did great last year. This year we lost power after a very short distance. Found that there was a tear in the fuel pump diaphragm (last replaced 2 years ago) Put a new diaphragm in and again lost power after a very short distance of full throttle. I noticed that if I covered the intake...
Someone please help me!!!
I've installed to different sets of points on my 75hp and they fail after a short while. I found that the little red plastic or rubber piece that rides the cam gets weak and flexes causing the points gap to 0. I help finding a better brand and design.
The points that...
I have a 1974 75hp Chrysler. The ignition box failed again and left me stranded. Getting pretty sick of it. I read in another forum a very old thread about adding a condenser for the distributor and replacing the CDI box with an automotive coil as well as replacing the spark plugs with those...
What's the best and easiest way to remove mildew from vinyl seats? I bought some Overton's Deluxe Lounger seats a couple years back and my boat cover tore so they were left out in the weather. They turned black really fast. I've scrubbed them with vinegar, some bleach/water and still can't...
I have a 1974 Chrysler 75. It starts quick, idles normal and run fine at slow cruise speed about 4mph. If I try to go any faster it bogs down and cuts off. When not in water or gear I can rev the engine at the carbs and it has good throttle and rev response. I tried reducing the oil ratio and...
I have a 1975 75hp on my 15' Winner Tiki. I was wandering what the most effective way to adjust the air/fuel to get all the carbs in sync? I've tried by ear but it seems to run rich. Is there a vacuum port where I can use a gauge?
