Hi all!
I recently purchased a 12 foot boat that came with a really nice older OMC model 6 metal fuel tank. The connector on the tank has the two vent pins which are pressed in upon connection. Any idea which fuel connector to use for this tank? I'm referring to the one that attaches to the...
I just bought a boat with a very lightly used 8 HP Mercury Outboard that I believe to be a mid-80's model. The serial number is 0B120974.
Thanks in advance for the help!
Just bought a 14 foot aluminum boat and noticed there is a plastic fitting on the bottom of it. It goes up into the boat inside a little compartment beneath a seat. There is a hole on the inside with drain plug. Is this for a bilge pump? Never seen one on the bottom of the boat. If...
The low speed idle while in neutral is to fast. No tach so not sure on the actual RPM but just by ear it is obviosly running to fast. How do I adjust the low speed idle? I have included a couple of photos of the motor. Thanks in advance.

How to find Model & Serial number on Johnson 25 hp outboard with no info plate????
Hello!
I have what I was told is an early 90's Johnson 25 hp outboard. It has electric start and is a non-tiller model. There is no information plate anywhere on the motor so I don't know what the serial...
Hello,
Took out my boat today which has a 45 hp sears outboard on it. I just replaced the impeller which works fine. The motor had power problems however. At full throttle it would only go about 1/4 speed. There was no surging or anything and the motor did not do this the last time I ran it...
Hi,
My 68 45 hp outboard was running perfect when I put it away last fall. I just tried firing it up for the first time this season and it just continued turning with the electric start but would even sputter. I have made sure there is fuel getting to the carbs. It does not appear that I...
Hi,
I have an old 68 sears fiberglass turnabout with a 45 ho sears motor. Put it in the water for the first time about 2 weeks ago and it ran fine with the exception of surging rpm at all throttle positions. I trialered my boat back home and noted it had about 1/3 of a tank left in the 6...
Hi,
I'm fairly new to boat motors and was quoted $800 (parts & labor) to rebuild my 1967 110 that I bought last year. This quote is from a mobile marine service that will be driving at least an hour and doing the work on site at my home that day. Includes, new rings, cylinder hone, carb...
Hello,
I purchased an old 1968 Mercury 110 9.8 hp outboard motor. I had to replace the fuel lines because one of them was sucking air. In the process I replaced the recirculation line as well because it had cracked while I was moving things around. The exact inside diameter of the recirc...
Hi,
I am new to boats and not knowledgeable at all about motors.
I purchased a small boat which has a 1968 Mercury 110 9.8 hp outboard motor on it. I do not know how to tell if it has side intakes or not. I would like to buy a motor flusher ("earplugs") so I can start it up. Anyone know if...
