Heres what we did after We couldnot get it unstuc and we tried for over a month. First we cut two wedges of wood (oak) and wraped them in sheetmetal. Put them between the lower unit and extension section of mid section. Then we used C=clamps to squeeze the wedges in until the driveshaft pulled...
Ok long story short. Dad purchased boat in middle 90's. Me, him, sister, uncles, cousins and so on, shared boat for 10+ years. My uncle finally parked it for a year or so. My kids got too big for the J16 skiff so I retrieved this boat from lake murry in lexington SC at my cousins wedding. Ready...
I can go and get this motor for free but it is a 6 hour trip. The story is his dad passed and he is cleaning out his dads garage. he says his dad was very meticulis about things and probably stored it correvtly but does not know why he stored it. Ive figured out that it is a 62-63 Johnson Super...

Hi I got a 1984 8 hp John for $140. I knew it had a bad coil but it had 150 psi on both cylinders. It would barley try to start with a coil from my 1985 140 rude. I just rewired a connector to the push on verses the bolt on wire. I rebuilt the carb and the fuel pump and it started on the second...
rebuilt carbs, this is a new motor to me, new fuel lines from tank to carbs, low idle and shuts off when its warmed up and in gear. This is making it very hard to load the boat on the trailer. Dads neighbor said to stick toothpicks in the small idle air bleeds and break them off and set the...

I got this with a strong running powerhead. Lower unit is in very rough shape. I was told on a HULL nother forum that my 92 115 rude lower would interchange. I figured out that the shift rod was different but I did the turn count in thing and switched them out. Now the foot wont go all the way...

116-115
100-110
two questions
1 I think the yam is a 25" shaft and I know the Evin is a 20" for sure. Will the Yam work on my boat?
2 Are these compression...
OK I def have all the nuts/bolts out. Have soaked in PB Blaster for 2 weeks and I can get a quater inch between the block and mid plate at the front but the back 2 studs wont budge. I straped a chain around the bubble exhaust to get a straiter pull, let the weight of the boat and trailer hang...
I have a bad cylinder and decided to rebuild it myself. Never done a boat motor before but have done many car and lawnmower and ATV motors. I have the factory manual. I have taken alot of pics as I removed all the wiring, carbs, reeds and etc. My problem is when I try to lift the power head off...
