I need to replace the float needle/ float valve on a Nissan NS18C2, but can't find a replacement. Does anybody know of a source for one or know of one from another motor that would work? I know this is a dinosaur of a motor, but it has always been an excellent one, and I'm hoping to get it...
I have a Nissan NS25c3. It is electric start, and after a while of fishing and restarting the motor, the battery will most often go dead. Keep in mind that sometimes this can be blamed on the running the trolling motor, but a lot of the time I haven't even used the trolling motor when the...
Re: Weld stern bracket to fix shallow water drive? NS25C3
**ADDED PHOTOS AND INFO** Thanks for the Part #'s. 1/2 throttle will get the boat moving plenty fast to cause damage if it strikes an underwater object. Yea, I agree. I even reverse unlocked bc unless you give it lots of throttle...
I have a Nissan NS25C3, and made a dumb mistake. I loaned it and my boat to my buddies to take duck hunting, assuming that they'd take as good of care of it as I do, and it came back with a bent prop and a piece broken off the stern bracket that guides the adjuster deal into shallow water...
I have a 1995 Nissan 30 HP, and it looks like somebody in the past has had the cylinder head off and reused the old gasket and put a little red rtv around it. I know this is not good practice, and want to correct it. I have the gasket, but when I went to replace it, it appeared that the...
I found a 1999 Twin Vee center console bay-type boat for sale. The asking price is $3000. It has a 1999 50hp Nissan outboard. What would you think the boat is worth? :confused:
What has to be done to convert a NS25C from remote steer to tiller steer? Also, would parts from a NS18c, such as tiller handle, work on the 25c or be of any use to the conversion? Looking at buying a motor off a pontoon and putting it on my 1542 duck boat. Thanks.
I have a 1964 Merc 60 6hp engine. I have rebuilt the carb in recent years, replaced water pump, etc. The engine has run great for years, but just recently has started dying after running for a brief period. It is dying because of lack of fuel. Motor will stay running if you pump the primer...
I have 18hp Nissan that I just did a powerhead swap on. Model is NS18C2. The motor was originally a 9.9hp NS9.9B2, but I swapped powerheads. The motor pumps water good, but I am curious if water is coming out of everywhere on the motor that it is supposed to. There is a place with two holes...
I have bought a early 1990s Nissan 18hp 2 stroke (blue, silver cover, blue and red stripes). It is missing the lower unit and a few odds and ends. I also have a 1992 Nissan 9.9B2 that is complete and in near mint condition except for one of the spark plug holes is stripped beyond repair. I...
I need a pulser coil for a nissan/ tohatsu 9.9b2, any idea where i can find one? TG will your site have it? I saw them for other models, but none for the b2, please let me know, thanks! I'll check prices w/ my local dealer tomorrow and buy accordingly.
I have a 9.9 Tohatsu 2 stroke, MS9.9B2 i believe, and I think it is a 1992 model. The other day I was trout fishing in my boat and my dad, who has an '89 model 18hp Nissan was in his boat. I noticed that my dads Nissan was pumping water out of the pee hole and out of the hole below the back of...
A buddy of mine had an old 1968 6 hp mercury that he was going to throw away so he gave it to me. I put a new water pump, carb kit, LU oil, and a homemade fuel pump diaphragm made from a bike innertube. The motor started right up and runs great, but I don't see any water coming from behind the...
I did the 9.9 to 15hp throttle cam swap on my motor, but my coil went out shortly after. I was just wondering if the the throttle cam swap is legit and if anything else would need to be changed/ adjusted??? Could the cam swap in any way cause an electrical component to fail, as mine did after...
I have a early/mid 90's 9.9 Tohatsu 2 stroke outboard, and I just did the throttle advance cam swap on it. Right after I finished doing the swap, I went to the lake to test it out. It ran great for the first 15 minutes, but as I was going across the lake at WOT it suddenly shut off, like...
