    What's the difference between QL77JC4 and the QL82C

    L77JC4 has a .040 gap. QL82C has .030....030 is omc recommendation for at least several smaller 2 strokes. And I know they recommend both plugs, that I don't know why. I've used both as is out of the box in my 1992 9.9 and noticed no difference.

    1992 9.9 E10RELENA high speed issues

    Yup T-stat functions. I think I need to get an OEM carb kit and start there. Stinks I just rebuilt it a month ago but I didn't like that Sierra kit. It's a pain in the ass to get this carb off/on because its electric start plus the plastic bowl and plastic top plate make me nervous even touching...

    1992 9.9 E10RELENA high speed issues

    Thanks for the reply. I guess the main part of my wonder is if it just is normal with these engines in relatively humid conditions. I wouldn't know because my cowl is always on since this is the first issue I've had with it. I'm leaning towards a float issue. I rebuilt the carb recently and it...

    1992 9.9 E10RELENA high speed issues

    I'm a marine mechanic but not familiar with small outboards. This is mine and has ran perfect since February up till 2 weeks ago. I use it several times/week in all conditions. I fished in heavy rain and right away after starting it wouldn't go over 3000. And hasn't since, unless I do the lean...

    1992 9.9, unique issue (E10RELENA)

    Sorry for all my replies to my own thread lol. Just trying to be thorough. My condensation issue may be common and I've just never noticed. I just looked at specs. Can anyone verify the gap on a 1992 evinrude 9.9 is supposed to be .030? The recommended plugs L77JC4 (or QL) are .040 out of the...

    1992 9.9, unique issue (E10RELENA)

    It's creating enough liquid that the throat of the carb is milky. I'm not so sure it's enough to be pulled through the reeds though. It's impossible to drain the carb bowl on these things without taking it off which is a project because of the starter/solonoid being in the way. The plugs are...

    1992 9.9, unique issue (E10RELENA)

    Yeah I understand that. I don't know what's making the fluid in the first place. And if that has something to do with my running issue since it's never happened prior

    1992 9.9, unique issue (E10RELENA)

    Oh I unclipped the fuel line while running just to get an idea of if I was sparking on both without pulling off wires, and it did the lean take off thing where it revved up before stalling. And the boat itself is waterlogged or anything either (since I mentioned rain)

    1992 9.9, unique issue (E10RELENA)

    Hey everyone, First of all I've searched the archives and found nothing that explains my issue. 2nd I'm a marine mechanic, but mostly work on large outboards. This is my own boat for a HP restricted lake. I'll note this ran fine all year (bought used in February) thru last Friday. The very...

    Iboats terrible customer service, or lack of

    Last update. My apologies! I did find the emails. I guess I have 2 spam folders. Still confused why only those emails didn't go into my inbox. That's something iboats should look into preventing. Or at least put a disclaimer on the contact form page telling the customers to check. My fault...

    Iboats terrible customer service, or lack of

    None of them did or I would have. I am a marine mechanic by the way so I tried my sources but nobody had an 8 pitch and I needed it Sunday. Saw ships in 1 day and never foreshadowed a problem getting it within 2 weeks. I got an answer out of this though. Apparently they replied twice. Once on...

    Iboats terrible customer service, or lack of

    Thanks I saw colonel sanders on a couple other posts for very similar issues. Seems to be a continual thing. I'm in business and know if I told my customers, over the phone especially, that they need to email me and then I'd get back to them in 3-5 days on the status of an order they would tell...

    Iboats terrible customer service, or lack of

    Before I begin, I already am aware this isn't the right site to do this and definitely the wrong thread, but it is the busiest. I have no choice. I am looking for answers on order #6203978. Said ships in 1 day from Fenton, Michigan warehouse when I ordered. Very common prop that fits 1974-2005...
