Ok its been a year on the rebuilt motor in my boat lots of use no issues its an inboard with a 302 HO 1409 carb 20' Sham PH (asked on that site but looking for a bigger crowds opinion). Boat has never seen past 3500RPM while on the water in gear. It will snap past 4K out of gear just fine. I'm...

Will it work on...
I have a 1979 Hydrosport 1700 17' boat its hull is in good shape. I currently have a 1986 140hp Evanrude on it. The boat is rated for a 140hp max. Motor is getting to the point I need to replace it. Currently top speed is 32mph and the boat seems well powered. I?m thinking about going with a new...
I have been doing some troubleshooting via the OEM manual but no luck. 140 Evenrude 1986 looper I had a charging issue when I got the boat it had no tach and the previous owner had reversed the battery cables. I replaced the rectifier and power pack and that solved it.
This time I changed out...
1986 Motor I did a compression check and one cylinder the upper starboard side had 60psi. I took the head off and the gasket was a mess and had a break in the metal ring on that cylinder. The cylinder walls look ok. I cleaned up the head and ordered a couple new gaskets. My plan is to replace...
I have a 1986 Evenrude 140hp. Last couple trips my it died at low trolling speeds just sputtered out like it ran out of gas. I used the kicker to troll for 30 minutes, and the main motor started back up and ran fine all the way back to the dock 10 miles or so. Yesterday the same symptoms putting...
Do I need to pull the flywheel to replace the Rectifier on my 1986 Evenrude 140hp outboard?
Its the one tahts water cooled. Manual says to remove the flywheel (Step 1 :) but by the looks of it (without breaking it down) I don?t need to. Just asking so I can prepare to pull it (get a puller)...
I have a boat I put some time and money into and its now safe and ready to go (almost). The previous owner had let the boat sit outside with the gas cap off. Knowing this I siphoned the water out of the tank and added 10 gallons of gas. I added a new water separator and inline filter in front of...
I have a early 80?s Hydro-Sports CC I am fixing up. It has not been in the water for over 4 years. I am replacing the through hull fitting for the wash down pump and bait tank. I took the old one out and there is some water (damp) in between the space in the transom where the fitting was. A...
I inherited a decent older boat that has a Evinrude 140hp VRO 1986 outboard. The motor runs and compression is ok. I drained the gear case tonight and the first thing that came out was clear water about 1/4 of a cup. Then black tar like oil and water mix (about 1/2 a cup) and then mostly black...
I have a 40hp 2000 Mercury 2 stroke. Its manual pull start. The place for the starter is empty and the flywheel has teeth. Has anyone ever just added a starter and a push button to an outboard like this? Can I just add the starter and connect the battery cables up to it with the push button...
I?m replacing the impeller on my 2000 40hp Mercury. I ran into some kelp over the weekend and the motor quit pissing well. I bought the motor used a few months ago and figured its a good idea to replace the impeller anyway so tonight I took it apart.
There is what looks like tar that was used...
I got one of these CMC Vertical Extensions http://allinflatables.com/shopping/cook/ve.html to raise my 40hp 2 stroke long shaft outboard on the transom of my inflatable. I installed it yesterday but I'm not sure if I should use 6 bolts (3 on each side) through the transom or if the 4 I have now...

I have a Lowrance LVR-250 VHF it has a NMEA adapter with some bare wires coming out of it. I want to connect it to my Garmin Oregon's NMEA compatible USB interface does anyone know how to do this? I?m guessing there is a NMEA to USB wiring harness but I can?t find one on the internet.
Thanks
