    Aluminum paint question

    I am going to be painting my 1989 Sea Nymph GLS 195. Until recently I thought I was losing the boat due to some financial problems. Luckily I am not, but now I am trying to catch up with the rebuilding process I started 7 months ago. I am on a tight budget, and am looking for ideas for some...

    82 Merc Black Max Control Box Question

    My father in Law and I are working on his Ranger. He bought a new Mercury control box, now on his motor he needs the "push" type of box to push the cable to open the throttle, not pull it. I just want to make sure I am not crazy here, when I advance the throttle from the control box the cables...

    93 Yamaha 150hp Tach Issues

    I just installed this motor and took it out today for the first time. Runs awesome, probably the smoothest running motor I have ever owned. It has the digital gauges. One gauge has the speed and fuel gauge. The other has the tach, oil, and trim gauge. Everything is working on the 2 gauges except...

    This is a motor my buddy and I picked up for next to nothing. Has good compression, good spark, carbs were rebuilt. The problem is it will not turn over. This motor kind of sat around for months, now we have started to tinker with it again. It also has 2 new fuel pumps, and fresh gasoline. If we...

    Gearcase seal 94 erude 112

    I changed the lower unit oil on my motor and the oil was a white milky substance. I removed the lower unit, submerged it and performed a pressure check at around 6 psi, the only bubbles I got were from the gasket around the impeller housing. Since there has been water intrusion, do I need to...

    Could this be my problem?

    Excuse my drawing on this, but I remembered something I saw when I dissassembled my fuel pump, 94 erude 112 spl, bogs down at WOT. On my fuel pump, the piece that the fuel first enters that has the screen filter on it, the very center of that piece that has one screw that connects to the pump is...

    94 Evinrude 112 spl, alot of work still dying

    And so the problem continues. As long as keep the throttle at about 3/4 it will not die, but when I open it up to WOT it runs for about 15 to 20 seconds and just shuts down, sometimes the engine dies completely, other times it just goes straight to idle, and when it does go to idle it will not...

    Replaced rectifier still no tach

    I recently had a rectifier go bad on me, at the same time my tach went out. I replaced the rectifier and the charging system is working now, but still no tach. Is it possible it fried the tach?

    Recitifier and RPM questions

    A couple questions and the first may be a dumb one. I suspect my rectifier is bad. My question is does my engine have a Rectifier Lead and a Rectifier/Regulator? I noticed on the the Parts schematics on the evinrude site that they both were listed, I went over my engine looking for it in case i...

    94 evinrude 112hp voltage drop when cranking

    I thought I may have just had too many things running off 1 battery, so I now have 2 batteries running everything on the boat. The problem is that when I crank the engine, the voltmeter gauge :confused:on the dash drops from just over 12 volts down to 8 volts during the crank. I did a rectifier...
