    Engine Won't Run When Warm

    Now it's time to figure out whether it's spark or fuel. Personally, is get rid of those plugs and buy champions but others will disagree. Either way I'd start by doing a spark JUMP test and if tests fine go on to fuel.

    1986 johnson 20hp tiller electrix start

    Standard lead acid battery, group 24 should be fine or step up to a G 27. Don't start it with an old impeller, it may fail and get rubber bits up in the cooling passages.

    Evinrude 25hp outboard wants to die when I give it gas

    I would agree....carb nut trick is used by many mechanics and an Evinrude dealer mechanic showed me years ago. Do it or not, makes no difference to me. Best of luck to you

    Engine Won't Run When Warm

    Or, since water doesn't go through it, the gasket insulates it from the hotter aluminum. Two ways to look at it.

    Engine Won't Run When Warm

    Didn't see any water nipples on the rectifier....maybe I'm wrong.

    Engine Won't Run When Warm

    Not aware of a rectifier gasket....if there is one it's there to keep it cooler I'm guessing. Use anything really. Still sounds fuel related. Run motor...let it die and check the plugs.

    40hp Johnson blows 20a fuse when key is turned

    I couldn't pull up your diagram but here it clearly shows that wire is NOT connected to the solenoid. https://maxrules.com/graphics/omc/wiring/40_50_UFI.jpg

    Engine Won't Run When Warm

    Your tach could be having issues because of the screwed up rectifier.....try some 50 to 1 fuel in a spray bottle and see if that keeps it going. When you remove the plugs what story does the engine tell you?

    Engine Won't Run When Warm

    I believe this is a standard carbureted vro system....no injectors or lift pump, correct?

    Engine Won't Run When Warm

    Sounds like you sucked up some crap in the fuel system. Any fuel filters? How old was the fuel?

    outboard won't stay idling or rev up

    Most likely carbs but do a spark jump test at least on the lower cylinder. Nice blue 3/8 inch crackle. https://www.jbtools.com/lisle-50850-ignition-spark-tester/?wi=off&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwj4K5BhDYARIsAD1Ly2q_KyC5wkFCDpMmsmZBcjw9SKMw2O96gSW1-JFG-ExYopdZyftFnOsaAtefEALw_wcB

    outboard won't stay idling or rev up

    Question 2, plastic parts? Did you remove all the seals before shooting the carb cleaner? It basically ruins rubber. Is it dying before it gets warm? If so, keep giving it a squirt until it stays running. Warm up lever is up correct? After it dies have you looked at the plugs? Are they wet or...

    Nice example of how it doesn't take much corrosion. Thanks for responding.

    Johnson 35 with intermittent stream before thermostat opens

    Other than the broken bolts it's a piece of cake. Lower head bolts are the toughest. Get your self some 80 grit sandpaper, something dead flat and do figure 8 patterns on the sheet with the head. Takes me about 40 minutes to an hour to complete a head grind.

    2003 Johnson 9.9 4 stroke-Rev limit

    In a barrel you don't want to rev it anyways so leave it alone. If otherwise the motor runs good than it's a good thing. Remember, an outboard is running like your pulling a big hill in a car....running with "no load" is not good.

    2003 Johnson 9.9 4 stroke-Rev limit

    In neutral? Sounds like the shift throttle lock is not releasing assuming it has one.
