    Air in fuel line

    I have a 2001 Evinrude 90 hp. fuel injected engine. Today it started out running good but after about 10 minutes it started running real rough and shut off. After checking different things I checked the small bleeder valve in the gas line. When I pressed the valve it spewed gas and air...

    Motor surging at low speed

    I have a 90 HP Evinrude Fuel Injected engine. It seems to want to surge at low speed and idling. It runs fine at speeds over 2000 RPM. Can anyone point me in the direction of the cause of this?

    Fuel filter

    I have a 2001 90 HP Ficht Evinrude engine and I would like to change the fuel filter on it. I can't seem to find it though. I can see it on the parts list but not on the engine itself. Can anyone direct me to the location of it.

    Bleeder Valve

    Re: Bleeder Valve Well I came up with this. I am getting ready to install it. It is a 5/16" T connector with the schrader valve that I got from B**ts.net. I need to get another piece of fuel line but I cannot see why it will not work.

    Bleeder Valve

    Re: Bleeder Valve Thanks... great suggestion. My minds been working overtime trying to come up with an idea. Here is a couple of pictures of the t connector minus the schrader valve. I am going to find a 1/4 inch schrader valve and tap out the center and install it. I am just wondering if...

    Bleeder Valve

    Re: Bleeder Valve It does not show in the parts diagram so I called ********** and they have the valve that I need I think. It is a port that has the schreader valve in it. I'm just afraid of it because it was so cheap. It was only 6 bucks and I don't know any part on a marine engine that...

    Bleeder Valve

    While out on the lake today, I went and tried to start my 90 HP evinrude engine. It tried to start but then quit firing. I pulled the cowl off and noticed that the bleeder valve(thats what I call it) was gone. It looks like the valve stem in a tire. I believe it is used to bleed the air out...

    EMM Replacement

    I have a 2001 90 Hp Evinrude Ficht and it was diagnosed with a bad EMM. I can get a re-manufactured one for $450 or go to Evinrude and get one for $1,300. My mechanic told me that I have to get one set to the specifications of my motor or take all the info off my old one and transfer to the...

    Hooked battery up backwards

    I screwed up and hooked the battery up backwards. I read that this would fry the regulator/rectifier The only thing is that this model that I have does not have a regulator/rectifier. It is a 2001 90 hp Evinrude Ficht engine. It feeds directly from the stator from what I am reading from the...

    Not turning proper RPM's

    I have a 2001 Evinrude 90 H.P. that I just had rebuilt. The mechanic that rebuilt it can only get 4500 RPM's out of it and says this was the cause of the rebuild yet he has changed the prop and raised the motor but still can only get 4800 RPM's. Even with this it will cavitate at this speed so...

    Not turning proper RPM's

    I just had my 2001 90 H.P. Evinrude rebuilt. The mechanic can only get a max of 4500 RPM's out of it. He said he lowered the pitch of the prop and raised the motor and now has it up to 5,000 RPM's but cavitates and I will have to back off of it. I know this is not right and I'm asking if...

    Adjusting Injectors

    I have a miss in my 2001 Evinrude ficht 90 hp engine. It is more noticeable between 1,500 & 4,000 RPM. I have the software to be able to adjust it with but I am not sure of the best way to adjust it. Do you just adjust it by ear and do one cylinder at a time or all at once? Any help is...

    Diagnostic software

    With the Evinrude diagnostic software, can you alter the timing on an engine just using the software or do you have to manually go into the engine?
