I'm about to re-torque the head bolts on my 2006 50 HP Yamaha Outboard as it was suggested to me to have that done after the first 10 hours of use. The Head cover displays 29.4 Nm (M8) and 7.8 Nm (M6) for the torque values but I'm trying to confirm which bolts use which value. The Head cover...
Trying to find a carb kit for my 1979 7.5 hp Chrysler. This site has kits for the 6, 8, & 9.9 engines with a part number of 18-7037 and was wondering if it would fit my engine. Model is a 72h9b. Other sites list similar kits for those engines but the 7.5 is always blank. Any advice on where to...
Have a 92 70HP Evinrude and the "Thrust Rod" is rusted out and needs replacement. Found a new one online but it cost $112. Can anyone explain why this fancy bolt would cost so much? Can't imagine there is so much thrust that I need this "super" bolt. Shouldn't a 1/2" galvanized bolt work...
Looking for ideas on how to replace the screen that rests behind the water inlet holes on the lower unit of my 1992 70 HP Evinrude. They look to be plastic and I noticed that on both sides of the motor they are broken and could allow small things to go in. Really don't want to have to take the...

Problem: Won't start or even sputter, just turns and turns...
This is my third different thread with this motor in the past few months and I still haven't gotten the boat in the water yet. I'm getting closer with the help I have received on each thread though so...
Starting a new thread here as my originial problem has been determined to not be the problem at all. Here's the story...
Several months ago, took my 1992 70 Hp Evinrude in to a mechanic to have the carbs rebuilt as they were full of old gas and gunk. Motor had sat in yard for about a year...
Recently had the carbs overhauled on my 92 70 Hp Evinrude by a local boat shop. When they were basically finished and tuning the motor (link & sync I guess) the choke stopped working and they were unable to finish as they couldn't start the motor without a properly working choke. They told me...
Have a 70 HP 1991 Evinrude that previously would idle fine but would not pick up speed when in gear. Replaced fuel pump and now engine will not idle or run unless the choke is continuously pressed. I've looked at previous posts and symptoms point to either a air leak in the fuel line or carb...
