    2006 Nissan 9.8 NFS9.8A3 Revival

    Alright, I installed a water pump rebuild kit and also the plastic water pump body which was damaged. Reassembled. Started right up and now dripping from pee hole. The old water pump was completely shot...the impeller was trashed and the upper plastic water pump housing had gotten so hot it...

    2006 Nissan 9.8 NFS9.8A3 Revival

    Ordered a tohatsu water pump kit, cowl seal and anode. Looking forward to mounting this now apparently functional motor on my sailboat. What is best adhesive for attaching cowl seal to the plastic cowl? Looks like PO hit an oyster rock and prop is slightly dented. I plan to, for now, just...

    2006 Nissan 9.8 NFS9.8A3 Revival

    I found this Tohatsu service manual online which is for the same outboard (as far as I can tell). Much easier to read than the paper manual I have. I could not make out the wiring diagram symbols on in the paper manual I have. With this electronic copy the imagery was clear and helped me...

    2006 Nissan 9.8 NFS9.8A3 Revival

    Got this motor with a sailboat. Working through it to see if I can get it to run. I finally got my Nissan electric start 9.8 to crank (special thanks pvanv. Yes it was simple...had the B- on the solenoid rather than to a grounding point) . Now on to getting it to start. I put some gas in the...
