'01 Johnson 90HP V4. Turns out my cracked gearcase was severely distorted. Needed to order a new case all together. Putting everything back together now and wondering what dictates how much to shim the driveshaft. Shaft is spinning freely to prop but you can still hear the clicking of the gear...
Well that is a very bad way to end a bad day. Hit myself a big rock and cracked the gearcase. I have a 2001 Johnson 90HP V4, model J90PLSIF.
Managed to get the lower end dropped and everything cleaned up but need to get the gearcase sent to the welder for repairs.
HOWEVER, we can't seem to...
I have a 2001 Johnson 90HP 2stroke on a Princecraft that I bought. Since I got it its been running flawlessly. However yesterday coming back to the Marina for the first time ever when I came off plane I noticed the motor running a little rough. When I slowed right down for docking, it died. It...
Hey Guys,
Looking at this rig and wonder if anyone can give me any insight good or bad on the boat itself as well as the motor.

For those who don't want to download the doc file, its a 2000 Princecraft 165 with a 2001 Johnson...
1984 35HP Evinrude E35RCRR.
My motor has recently started getting stuck in gear. I'll be going along fine, but on a shore landing I usually shift to neutral, put the motor on shallow drive, shift back into forward and beach it. I usually just cut the motor while its in gear.
However tonight...
I have a generator coil under my flywheel. Since I have bought this motor, its been giving me some troubles, but I seem to have solved most of its issues. I am still running into some issues when the motor has been transported or running for a while. It dies out and won't run correctly.
I'm...
Took the MKIII out for a rip on the weekend and put my 35HP Evinrude on it. The prop on there is 10x13 for my tin Edson boat. This prop easily got us on plane but topped out at 24mph. I have a 10x15 for a spare that I took off the motor originally, and was wondering if I were to throw that on...
New to the Zodiac world. I have a MKI and Futura MKIII. Looking at going camping on August Long and was wondering if the MKIII is cabable of towing a tube.
I know I have the power to do so, but was wondering about the stresses on the transom? Is their a ski kit? or do you just use the loop on...
STILL having troubles with a Evinrude 35HP. 1984 Mod. E35RCRR.
I recently regasketed the entire engine block. Compression is fine. 127 even on both cylinders. New Thermostat...etc etc. Probably didn't need it, but it was a bit of an exploritory mission. Pistons were carboned up a bit, with...
Since the stealer wants like 90bucks for these primers, is there an alternative that anyone's found?
I know I've found 12 dollar ones for my snowmobiles and was wondering if those would work? why so freakin expensive?
This is all I have in my garage at the moment and was looking at putting my Evinrude 35HP back together tonight. Because of where I live I don't have access to a lot of stuff.
I remember hearing that automotive sealant is bad on aluminum due to the chemical reaction.
Just wondering if...
I have a 1984 35HP Evinrude 20" shaft. My father in law has a 1984 25HP Johnson. He's already harvested the bottom end for another motor but I was wondering if I could use the mid section from his parts motor to replace mine.
What all would be involved in there? I imagine some plumbing and I...
Well I finally got my hands on some SeaFoam and did a Decarb in the driveway tonight. Lots of smokey exhaust that got rid of the bugs for about 40mins! Seems to be starting a little better, but still not great.
The motor takes a good prime to start firing, and seems to fire to a smooth run...
I've posted a few times here in the last few weeks.
I finally got my hands on some seafoam additive and deep creep. Hard to get because of our remote location.
I am going to try and get my motor started and running tonight in the driveway and use the deep creep stuff. I've read that I will...
