    No fuel being drawn into lower cylinder Johnson 7.5hp

    each half of the CC is independent. if a vacum loss is suspected and you still have the reed plate out can you feel equal pull of vacum of the left and right intake port if you place your hand in front of each section feel the vacum pulll on the upstrokes. one utube shows a possible...

    1987 johson 225 hp power issues

    Granpa always told us... "buy good tools they will last a lifetime ..and more". Unfortunately today I am not certain my grand kids will ever use or want to use all my stuff so I admit I do buy cheaper disposables sometimes. btw I still use one of grandpa's hammers :-)

    1971 Johnson 4hp no spark / possible bad coils?

    coils look.. ok primary wire ( between short ones) at 1 ohm is OK from either short wire to the spring in the boot end should read 4-8 KILO ohm on the proper scale. condensers likely gone bad (small investment) . basic testing for capacitance kicks does not mean much... dead short...

    1998 Johnson J90TSLECM 90 hp with Jet: leaking water

    may as well remove the PH and confirm base gasket matches the base config. check sealing on the water tube from the impeller maybe ?? was the refurbished ph the same year. ?? for ex. on the older mid 50s late 50s ob like the 5.5- 7.5 base gaskets configs varied...

    1983 Evinrude 35HP lower unit compatability/interchangeability?

    well if the thing is up the creek and it is not an adjustement issue why not take the GC apart ( try utubes) and look -see what is wrong. Maybe a few parts need replacement to get you going. Of course GC swap is easy but you never know what you get when used ...

    2000 Evinrude e150fpxssv power trim issue

    whatever the cause control relays should always respond to switches and CLICK !!! if they don't the motor will not be fed power hence stay dormant. (See A&B main power to motor on PDP) 2 relays (one at a time ) can receive switch power to alternate polarity on blue -green Their...

    Tilt trim making weird noise.

    yes I saw video .. funny noise for certain ... mine always was noisy (screechy) at both max high and max low but ... that just tells me it reached it's maximum position. after my rebuild I never had trouble but it still screeches when maxed out

    Tilt trim making weird noise.

    well if the tilt tube is greased the T&T seals likely need servicing. on my 2005 75hp ETEC...the T&T unit needed a rebuild.(failure to raise) see utubes...someone likely done it for you to see..

    1974 Evinrude 70 HP Charging system install

    rectifier/regulaors are fine for stabelizing the volts to protect electronics but a simple full wave rectifier will use the battery as a kind of buffer. if you do get high volts messing up electronics you could get a rectifier- regulator and mount it somewhere . ( lots of them on...
