Hello experts-
Have a question/issue.
Motor is a 2008 Merc 90hp 2 stroke. It has a standard aluminum prop on it now. I have a stainless i would like to try out. Unfortunately, the thrust washers are different. The prop that is on it is almost hollow in the back and the front of the...
Hi experts-
Repowering my old Glasply. Had a Yamaha 90 with 703 controls. The lower unit for that setup is now on the bottom of Lake Washington (don't ask). I have a Yamaha trim gauge and a Yamaha tach that has 3 oil lights letting you know the oil level. I have repowered the boat with a...
I have an issue with the shifting on my new to me Yamaha 90 horse 2 stroke. I believe it is a 1990.
The adjustment for the forward/reverse shifting is very finicky. It is a basic push/pull system near as I can tell. The cable pulls forward to put it in forward and pushes back to put it...
I screwed up this time guys!
Working on an older (early 80?s) 7.5 Mercury.
I have NO IDEA how but somehow I lost a part of my carb while waiting for a rebuild kit. It is the idle tube. I have everything together except missing this one tiny part. It is part number 38 on the diagram...
I have a 1987 90 horse Yamaha. The trim went out about 2 weeks ago. I ordered a new pump and pulled the motor tonight. Turns out it is NOT the pump. It is a VERY SMALL very simple part that is at the absolute tip of the trim pump output shaft. It seems to me its like a sacrificial shear pin of...
New motor to me and had labor day problems ;-(
Issue...
Has run perfect and trimmed/tilted as expected. Today put the motor up at end of day and went up fine. Flipped the trailering brace /lever and dropped the motor a sliver to rest on the lever. As soon as I did this the trim motor...
Ill get right to it.
1974? Mercury 650 3 cyl 2 carb
Was running great in Puget Sound yesterday and lost 1/3 of its power. Was missing badly on that cylinder after that. Got it home and SEEMED to be running fine on the hose (i bet it wasn't but whatever). Took it out to the lake today for...
Hey guy!
Got a new to me Mercury 650 to replace a 65hp Johnson HydroElectric shift on my boat now.
Couple issues.
1. Took me a bit to get it running right. Seems to start fairly hard. Normal for this motor? I ended up putting a fuel pump kit in it and adjusting the idle screws. That...
Hi guys-
Ill try to keep this as concise as possible to try to keep it easy.
Bought a boat with a 1972 65hp hydroelectric shift. Reverse was OUT on the boat. It was out MECHANICALLY and has nothing to do with a hydro electric shift problem. It tries to shift into reverse but grinds b/c the...
I am replacing the lower unit on my motor
65hp Johnson Hydroelectric shift
It drops about 4 inches and then seems to get hung on the drive shaft. theres no shift linkage to remove...and its not hanging on the wires. I am afraid I got in over my head already!
:-(
Please help.

I have a 1972 50th anniversary hydro electric shift. Can anyone confirm if the lower unit in this ad will fit my application?
I included a pic of my motor to help confirm.
