I just picked up the Galaxy. I know I need to change fuel lines to ethanol compliant if it has the old lines in it. They may have been changed, there is a modern 1 quart water separator filter on it. Does anyone know the locations of the fuel tank? It does have the fuel filler on port side of...
How do I install the mechanical fuel pump in a 1965 Statecraft Holiday 4 cylinder inline? Do I raise the pump arm as I slide it into the engine? Are check valves needed to connect the fuel lines? Any special fitted needed to connect the line to the carb?
I have a trim cylinder leaking. It is the older single hose style. I read in a 2008 post that the seal can be found at Granger and O rings are standard. But the post did not say how to disassemble the cylinder.
I did loosen both the cylinder seal cap and the end of the shaft part with the...
Can a GLM Water/Fuel Separator Kit be installed above the fuel tank on an I/O. The easiest install location is above the fuel tank, a little higher than the engine. The engine would be to the left of the fuel tank and the fuel to engine line is a down slope all the way to the engine fuel pump...
I have a 18' 1965 Starcraft Holiday with the 4 cylinder inline. I bought the boat used a few years ago and the owner had bill to show the engine was rebuilt in 2005. I bought it a few years after that.
When I bought it, The boat had a vibration at no wake speed, and starts to overheat. This...
I'm stumped. I just counted the gear teeth of 2 out drives that came with a 1965 rebuilt Starcraft Holiday. 4 cyl inline 110. Engine serial number 1825382 and 1 outdrive has a serial number of A1831787. It has a strange gear ratio count. I marked the teeth with a crayon as I counted them...
I'm working on a 1965 Starcraft Holiday. It has the I/O 4 cyl inline 110hp. Anyone know about how much this engine would weigh?
I need to change the engine coupler. I can get a 1 ton engine lift boom that has a max lift at full extension of 500lbs.
Or the 2 ton lift with a max lift at full...
To give a short history:
We were in the Grand River heading out to Lake Erie. We we doing about 3mph and my wife was at the helm. The engine blower was running and I did not notice an overheat smell until it was too late. When I turned and looked at the gauges the temp gauge was pegged. We...
Did they ever make a positive ground starter?
I recently bought a used flywheel, transfer port cover, and starter to convert a 1974 9.9 to electric start. This is using the starter through a switch hooked to the main engine battery on a Starcraft Holiday. Weird thing is that to get the...
I think I may have put the impeller in backwards.
I have a 9.9 evinrude dated 1974. It was only used 3 years then fogged and stored. Restarted once in a while just to re-fog it.
It ran great last year. I just changed the impeller because it was cracked when I inspected it. I lost track of...
I have a 1974 Evinrude 9.9 model 10424G Serial E0012239
It runs great and I was using it on a 14 foot car top boat. I sold that boat and I want to use this motor as a kicker on a 19 foot Starcraft. I had a shoulder injury a few years ago and it is now hard for me to pull start the motor.
I...
I have a Mercuriser 1A outdrive from 1965. Recently I replaced the gimbal bearing, shift cable bellows., Exhaust bellows, and the drive shaft bellows.
I used the parts from an online source. My son bought them for me as a gift.
I preloaded the gimbal bearing with Marine bearing grease before...
