I just got this boat its a 1996 stratos 225horsepower. Non of the accessories are working except for the trim. The people before said they had to replace the ignition switch to get it running. if it was the wrong kind of ignition switch or hooked up wrong would that cause the motor to start and...
I have a kawasaki 550 1991 stand up jet ski. I have a done some research and I know its a 2 stroke but there is cap that looks like a oil cap on a large metal blocked that is attached to the crankcase. I don't know if I need to put oil in it. Every where I have looked says that you don't put any...
I have a omc inboard outboard on a seaswirl 1983. it has a V6 GM motor. When I first got my boat I would reach 4500-4800 rpms with a prop that was 15x17 pitch. at the time it would die at low rpms and back fire occasionally with acceleration. I took it the local shop and had a mechanic go...
I pulled apart the tilt motor mechanism mounted to the intermediate housing on my 1983 sea swirl inboard outboard 3.6 litre with an omc stern drive. There was lots of water in the casing so I want to replace all seals and orings.
I have been looking for the kit but I can't find it. Doesn't...
I have a game fisher 7.5 1985 that I think is over heating. The obvious answer is the impeller is not pumping water. I am pretty sure the impeller is functioning. There is water mist coming out of the exhaust, and water pumps up to the plug at the top of the motor while running.
(see pic)...
I just bought this game fisher, and got it running. I Noticed there is no water coming out the exhaust, and I'm worried about over heating. I did notice that right below the carburetor at the top of the shaft there is a threaded hole that water comes out of while running. I I place my finger...

Re: lower unit removal 61 johnson 75 hp
I finally got it all disassembled. I am so relieved. I didn't even break anything...to my knowledge. After reading the manual about the gears and clutch dog I examined them. There is definately some wear on the forward side of the clutch dog. I am not...
Re: lower unit removal 61 johnson 75 hp
I got the bottom end to come off. I undid the bolts like you said that were behind the water pump. I cannot get the bottom and the middle portions of the shaft seperated. I believe I have everything undone, but before I apply more pressure I just wanted...
I am trying to disassemble my lower unit to get to the clutch dog and the gears. I read over the manual and then tried to do it it. Reading that manual is reading a language that I don't speak. I swear they are giving instruction for a different lower unit so I thought I would ask you guys for...
Recently my 61 johnson 75 sea horse wont go in forward gear. since I have had the motor occasionally it will pop out of gear while going forward. now its gotten much worse and it wont go into forward gear. it goes into reverse with ease.
