Or even boat wiring harnesses for nav lights, maybe a bilge pump, one or two accessory switches?
The reason I ask is that my dad just "inherited" his neighbors old aluminum boat when the old man died. Well, before he died, he took EVERYTHING out. It is a HULL, and ONLY a hull. His wife is...
No, it's not wobbling and shaking when idling, its when its underway there is slop in the steering and its at the motor, nothing else is moving. That's my point.
I bought a 40hp off of Ebay and it runs like a top, but the steering is loosey goosey. It's not the cable or the little steering arm that's moving, its something in the engine. It can wobble even with all other steering components remaining stationary. Anyone know if this can be repaired easily...
I didn't think so. But I know my dads Mariner 125 that's a 95 model has cylinder deactivation at idle to save fuel. I wasn't sure if this thing could as well.
I disconnected the black and yellow striped wire (the kill switch circuit) and the engine started. But then it was able to be manually stopped with the switch. (shouldn't be able to with the kill switch circuit disconnected.) Then it was almost impossible to get started again, and with an inline...
This one has me stumped.
I just installed the used outboard I bought off of Ebay. We decided to use 50:1 gas oil even though it has VRO just to make sure the VRO is working before we go to straight gas. Well the engine missed and ran terrible and had so much oil it was unbelievable. But slowly...
I seem to have gotten in over my head. I've been having a 28 on this little boat for almost 30 years. On a whim, looking at Ebay, I found a 97 40hp that looks almost brand new and runs as well as it looks. So I bought it and paid over 700 to have it shipped from Cali. That's the least of my...
I just purchased a used 1997 Johnson 40 and where we had it sitting, before moving it, this fell off from somewhere. We don't know where it came from. Any ideas what this is or where it goes?
