Hi all, working on an E35ELCND, 35hp 1982 and looking for a PPG code. I came up with several and there seems to be some conjecture regarding this. I have the old colour here for mid 1970's which I used GM Oldsmobile paint for but this is lighter. I found a post here about a 1987 using PPG 34486...
Hi all, have a 85hp evinrude with VRO crank won't turn. I pulled heads and #2 and #4 seem to move 1/8" back and fourth but 1&3 won't. Bores are clean, cross hatch good, the pistons wiggle side to side. Was wondering about possible wrist pin jammed in ports or piston ring cracked. Ultimately...
Hi, don't have my FSM yet but I bought a 1970 85hp Evinrude and it comped out at 130is on all four. Starts and runs nice but I was wondering if it's a bit low? I have a 55hp that is over 150lbs and a 40 that is at 115lbs. Runs pretty nice but just consider whether to maybe hone an ring before...
Hi Guys, I have to bore an 85hp, 1979 head 0.020" does anybody have the std bore dia? I was only able to locate a 1976 manual which is different bore. My block is 3.490" at the top, the donor block is 3.514-3.516" and stamped 0.020" over.
A friend gave me a deal on the donor but the bolt...
Busy day here, I also tore into my 1969 55hp selectric shift. It is stuck in gear. I ohmed out the coils and they are both 7ohms, I know forward is the default gear but is there an oil pump inside I need to contend with? Cranking over without fuel in the tank the prop turn and seems to slip...
Hi there, I have a 55hp mechanical shift approx 1974 here. Is type C interchangeable with the Hi Vis type oil. I would imagine yes since they have the same gear sets but would like to hear from a pro. I knkow electric shift requires ONLY type C but the question is vise versa.Thanks in advance.
Bought a powerhead 115hp for my 85hp. Did a teardown to check over and did a quick hone/ re-ring. Found pistons were 0.020" over so she has had some previous enjoyment on her.
My policy is to always, always, always confirm rod #'s because some times you wind up getting 2 rods with the same...
Hi Guys, researched the heck out of this one and I'm coming up nada.
Bought a 40 Evinrude and it had a bad point. I ordered points and condensers and in the mean time did a pressure test & reseal on the gearcase.
Got everything back together and it starts like a dream but the first thing I...
