    Evinrude E3RCCM Recoil Starter question

    I think the recoil spring is broken on this little Evinrude. The throttle cable goes right over the top of the screw I need to remove to get the spring out. I don't see anything I can loosen to take the push cable off. Help.

    Need some help

    A fellow brought me this motor today and asked if I could help him with it. I believe it is a Western Auto branded Chrysler but, all the plates have been removed so I have no model numbers to work from. I was hoping one of the experts could help me out and maybe point me in the right direction...

    I need a multimeter...

    I am just learning to work on the ignitions systems on small 2 strokes and have run into issues with a couple of motors that I cannot figure out. I am told that I need a good multimeter with a DVA adapter or DVA capability. All I currently have is a Harbor Freight 'give away". Would this...

    8 hp Johnson...no spark

    I have a J8SRLCDE that has no spark to either wire. Compression is 125 lbs both cylinders. I get no spark at all on my tester or by grounding plugs. This is my first time with an ignition problem of this type so I am all ears....errrrr eyes. My first thought was to pull the flywheel as...

    Tiller throttle questions

    I picked a 1974 Johnson 15 hp (its one of the early ones that they did a head switch on apparently, it has a red head) and among other issues the timing on the tiller twist throttle is off by about 90 degrees. It was twisted around when I got it and I goofed with it a bit and got the splines to...

    20 hp Chrysler Electic Start Carb Removal

    I picked up a 1972 20 HP Electric Start model 204HDyesterday. I, with much difficulty, got the starter off and cleaned up lots of rust from the crank shaft and points, reassembled and got it to fire and run if I squirt a little fuel mix in the carb. Actually sounds pretty good. Anyway, it is...

    1974 Johnson 15 broken bolts removing the lower unit

    As I removed the lower unit I broke off one side of the bolts. What is my best course of action? Another issue. I never expected dirt daubers to be this deep in the motor. They have the topside hole blocked too. Best way to clear them out? No problem with the ones in the picture. I...

    Rebuild question

    If you experienced guys were going to teach someone to rebuild an outboard, something they would most likely succeed with, what motor would you choose? The reason I ask is that I would like to learn how to do some basic stuff, but more advanced than what you guys have led me through to this...

    Mercury 9.9 4 stroke transom clamp

    I need a transom clamp screw assembly for a 9.9 4stroke Mercury and cannot seem to find the right part number. When I look for it I see listings but the part number says not available or obsolete. The motor is only a couple years old and is the same (appears so anyway) as the current model...

    1984 9.9 Sea King bendix will not climb and engage

    I have a 1984 9.9 Sea King. One of the issues I am trying to repair is that the bendix does not reliably climb to engage the flywheel. I can pull the cord several times before it spirals around and, if it does engage, it is at the end of the pull with little cord remaining on the spool. The...

    15 hp Johnson Project

    My nephew asked me to see if I could get his Johnson 15 hp model 15R76A running. He said it doesn't have spark, and he was right. I tested at 7/16 and moved in to 1/8 and never got any spark. There is some surface corrosion on the coils. I have not pulled the flywheel off yet. What should...

    1984 9.9 Chrylser (Sea King) questions

    I picked up a 1984 Chrysler Sea King 9.9 model VWB52299D today as a project. Looks like it will be one. I started tinkering with it this afternoon and I couldn't get it to shift into reverse. It goes in neutral and forward fine. I dropped the LU to see what I could see and could only get reverse...
