Yesterday I while at full throttle my engine lost power and i noticed the oil lamp turned on. After a quick investigation at the boat ramp I notice oil coming out of the air intake of the carb. It won't hold oil anymore. What happened?? Is it a seal? A gasket?? An O ring? Can i fix this...
I have rebuilt Tohatsu 4 stroke, Johnson 2 stroke and the Honda 4 stroke. Honda was the easiest one yet. Super duper quick and easy. JOHNSON 2 steoke 8hp was the worst by far, nightmare in fact. So hard to remove and access bolts, lots of plastic and a fragile cam follower.
Hey guys. Thinking about purchasing my first rib Apex A-12, its a 1999 with three patches, seems have small amount of fraying. The boat seems to be in pretty good shape with some discoloration on the material (hypalon). Comes with a 15hp honda four stroke in good shape(1999). Is $2000 too much?
Hello. I have an 8hp 2stroke johnson that runs well. I own a saturn mini cat 9'6" right now. I am going to pjrchase the 12 or 13 foot regular sib style soon. I assume the 12 foot will offer better performance, am i correct?
Hey guys i snapped my cam follower while fiddling with the allen screw, seems like it was week plastic (didnt take much). Anyway i ordered the cam follower and a roller. How hard is this to replace? Im kind of an amateur at repair work. Tha ks in advance for any help.
Thinking of buying one that has little use for 500. I want to make sure its a short shaft. The seller doesn't know anything about outboards. All I have is a picture to go buy. Thanks.
I have a nissan 4hp 4stroke. Can i replace this carb with lets say a 2010 tohatsu 6hp carb? Will it fit. I was under the assumption that they were all the same from year to year.
Typically i soak my carb in seafoam. I cheaped out today and went crazy with the spray carb cleaner. Well i ruined the rubber gasket on the float bowl. The gasket blew up like a balloon. Now i have to drive 30 miles to get a 9 dollar part. Carb cleaner will destroy rubber o rings and gaskets!
