Last year I replaced my red stator with a black one and removed the stator adaptor. The boat ran fine but after sitting all winter I am back to a no spark at all condition. Does anyone know the resistance and voltage output values for the black stator? I have a single CDM switchbox which was...
I have a chysler/merc/force sportjet 90 hp 3 cyl inboard. Question, how should the throttle cable and jet "reverser" cable work in unison. When I push the throttle forward the reverser as I call it immediately goes from covering the jet outlet to full open before the carbs linkage even moves, is...
I have a 90 hp 3 cyl 1995 chrysler/merc/force sportjet that I'm rebuilding. I'm the 2nd owner.<br />Removed the exhaust manifold and found that the small cooling port at the very bottom of the block directly under the exhaust chamber there is a water port but someone has sealed it shut with...
Am in the process of rebuilding my 90 hp 3 cyl, 1995 chrysler/merc/force motor. Most posts I/ve read say one should use a 24/1 mixture gas to oil. My engine has a oil pump and auto mixer, so how do I go about getting a more oil heavy mixture for the break in period? Also are there any...
I'd like to know how to get a crosshatch pattern on my cylinder walls. I bought a flexible 220grit 3 bladed honing tool and used it with kroil oil. The cylinder walls are now smooth and when mic'd are in spec for my motor, roughly a 3.376 average diameter. I've read about the importance of a...
I recently tore into my 90hp 3 cyl merc/force sportjet engine to rebore and replace the pistons.<br /> I am the 2nd owner and found the water port at the very bottom of the block near the water inlet to the exhaust manifold to be blocked by what appears to be a clear epoxy. The port in question...
I lost compression on one of the 3 cylinders on my 1995 force/merc 90hp inboard. Pulled the head and found the bad cylinder with some gouging on the cyl wall and the piston is missing half of the compression ring. I want to rebuild it, have it bored, replace the pistons and rings, possibly the...
My 90hp, 3 cyl mercruiser/force will run any where from idle up to 4000rpm and then die out slowly (in about 5 seconds) when I push the throttle above 4000rpm. After it dies (stops running) it is very difficult to start unless I give the carb plenum a shot of starter fluid, then it starts right...
