Background: I had my Tilt/Trim relay/selinoid start to go bad. It would not work after motor warmed up. I couldn't remove it because the two bolts that hold it wouldnt come out so I thought I would take the selenoid apart and clean contacts inside. I must have put something back together wrong...
Model: S225TXRW
I have posted before when I thought this was a fuel issue since symptoms started after getting bad gas. (water) Sorry for starting a new thread but were thinking electrical now.
I have done the following for fuel:
- drained fuel tank
- new Racor 10m water seperator
- new onboard...
After removing bad gas (water) from the tank and all lines throughout the motor I am still having an issue. Sometimes the motor cuts off completely. It happens at Idle and up on a plane. If I pump the bulb the motor will keep running. At the house on the hose I can watch the water level in...
Ok, at this point I am thinking O2 sensor.
Model number S225TXRW
What I know:
Motor has cut out while running at 4000rpms once. It has stalled at idle several times. I have gotten in the habbit of pumping the bulb which is not always hard but never sucked flat like restricted flow from...

New water pump / New poppit valve Assbly / Thermostats
Is there any type of solution that can be run through engine flush that would take care of corrosion inside engine. I am leaning toward removing heads and checking there (Starbord side getting hotter than Port), but I really don't think I...
Motor would run all day at 3400 RPM's but would overheat when up around 4000. Had a weak pee stream. Laddies said it could be the Poppit valve sticking.
Since this was not expensive and easy to do I replaced all of the poppit valve components.
I found that the rubber grommet was not seated...
Motor runs all day at 3200-3400 RPM's, Will run about 5-10 Min at @4000 and temp will creep up then rev limiter kicks in...HOT. I wasn't paying attention and that was the only time It got that hot. Changed water pump/thermostats and same thing. The water pump that I replaced looks great, in...
Motor will run without problem for 10 Min or so with Temp guage steady just above 150. then all of the sudden it will start to get hot (Towards 240). Throttle back to Idle or just above and it cools back down below 150. Throttle up and it runs at just over 150 for 10 - 15min and again all of...
