    98 Evinrude 115 (E115SLECM) Not going into gear

    Thanks, so when you say it should shift easily when it's running are you saying it will be difficult to shift when not running? Sorry just want to make sure I understand. I tried moving it with pliers with the cable disconnected but didn't want to force it and I can't really see the shift...

    98 Evinrude 115 (E115SLECM) Not going into gear

    The shift cable is not broken, when disconnected from the motor it seems to move normally. Sorry, seems most of my post didn't post.. The boat has been setting for the last 2 years on the lift. Got it prepped to put back on the trailer, backed it out of, and went to put in forward gear and...

    Getting no beep when turning the key

    I just had the same thing and spent a few days chasing it. If the battery load tests fine, check the voltage drop from the cables just like saltchuck suggested. But that won't rule out the starter. In my case, the voltage drop was double what was expected, tried another cable, and got the same...

    The boat has been setting for the last 2 years on the lift. Got it prepped to put back on the trailer, backed it out off the lift and went to put in forward gear and it's like it's in neutral

    I really had not used the boat for some time, still getting things sorted from Irma.. After Irma I replaced all the lines to the oil tank + new ball, screen, gaskets, new impeller, fuel filters & changed lower gear oil + decarb. Plugs looked OK, might have 75 hrs on them since last set...

    1998 115 (E115SLECM) Tilt Motor Change

    My tilt motor actually still works but its really rusted bad. Since I've got the boat on the trailer to do the WP thought i'd do the tilt motor before it goes. I didn't want to pull the motor if I can help it. Was hoping i could get to those rear screw by getting the top pin out of the trim...

    98 115 Ocean Pro (E115SLECM) is it running hotter than it should?

    When I got this motor it didn't run, thanks to many on hear my family has been enjoying this rig. I replaced the water pump when I initially got the motor, based on the temp guage at idle speed (no wake) it would creep up to just about the 175 (80 celsius) on the gauge and then drop down to...

    2015 Twin 150's - connecting to Garmin

    Want to display engine data on the Garmin but unsure on what all I need. There is a bus that has (3) connections for Devices + (2) bus connections. One has a terminator and the other has a connection into the bus (guessing that's power???) I know I'd need a NMEA2000 starter kit to extend the...

    I'm about to take delivery of a new (to me) boat that has new 150's on it. After I've been looking now I see there has been issues with past 150's with the harmonic balancers.. I had seen that some said newer models they moved away from the nylon gears, that true? Also I notices some...

    98 115 (E115SLECM) Part# for tell-tail plug

    Was only a matter of time, I knew this would happen.. Got the boat on the lift, was done flushing the motor and went to put the tell-tail plug back in and dropped the damn thing.. It bounced around and sure enough ended up in the canal. Was trying to find a part# to replace but don?t see it...
