so apparently for the block it self and head is the same from 1969-1984. so i should be good. its identical to my engine just different ignition and shift mechanism
Long story short, my buddy stripped two of the four spark plug threads while I was running a compression test, trying to help me finish up so we could get on the water. I was able to fix one of the cylinders with a helicoil, but the other cylinder was somehow too loose for a helicoil. It would...
im not sure if im correctly checking the resistance but this is what i did i put my multimeter on ohms
So i checked the resistance by connecting one probe of the multimeter to the positive terminal where power meets the blue ignition wire. And also has the.coil (signal wire) not sure the...
No the evinrude is running on points. I noticed even the right part number is also CDI electronic but for 1969 and some early 70s.
Thanks, i will check the resistance on the coils.
So i had extra ignition coils that are brand new for my 1987 Force 85. They look identical to the one coil thats on my 1969 Evinrude 85hp. I decided to try it out since i have 3 brand new ones instead of buying a specific one for the evinrude. I hooked it up it fired great and operated like it...
I have had this outboard for 2 years.... question do they have any type of tilt assist... the outboard is really heavy i gotta put alot of power to pull it out the water when going into shallows or pulling out the boat. I know theres no power tilt for this year but is there any type of tilt assist?
I have my outboard to get my from spot to spot. Im just going to use the trolling motor near shore fishing and going up rivers. So I believe i would only use the trolling motor in calm /nowake areas and to spot lock
I see i didnt notice that its not a tcw-3 oil thanks for clarifying i haven't ran it yet or even open the gallon so i can return it. And get XD50....
how do i adjust the idle on the 1969 Is what you just mentioned in the air silencer ?
The engine has 125 compression on all 4 cylinders. It starts right up from cold and warm. I noticed today when i was getting back to the docks when at low rpms im not sure if i was going too low in the throttle rpms since i have the hydroelectric shifter and it does it once i pull it back past...
