    Missing kickstand on a Force 120

    Found out the hard way: Use the trailering bracket and tie the motor down on the bracket. Make sure the cotter pin won't come out and allow the motor to bounce up and down as you travel. Can blow the seals. The bounce can blow the seals(already old) and you'll be replacing them. Start looking...

    Struggling to install lower unit....Force 90Hp

    IF??? both are in gear(shifter/lower unit) then as you raise the lower reach down and lift up on the prop ear with your right hand and continue lifting when the splines mesh. Before you try that: try spinning the prop while it's off, if it doesn't turn then you need to figure out why???

    Trim@Tilt locked in the up position.2005 150 2stroke

    The motor turns but no movement up or down. The oil's full. The release is locked in place, won't turn. Any ideas? Any rebuild places cheaper than 5 Star? Easiest way to remove the unit? Thanks

    125 force shift rod replacement

    How in the world did you break that??? Never saw one out ,yet a broken one??? To remove: under the bottom carb is pressed nut (that's a special locking nut #64) on top of the rod. The lower unit needs to be off. After the nut and lower removal it should come out the bottom.

    70s Chrysler 16hp outboard funny runner

    Don't remove the tube. That description of the tube is normal. Just make sure it's clear.

    Doing some research on adding tilt trim

    Why do you want to remove the kingpin? If you add a T@T you won't need to remove it. The T@T you need is from the older motors. Good luck finding anything to change it over. Best bet is find one with T@T already installed.

    Don't worry about a leakdown, just do a compression test.

    70s Chrysler 16hp outboard funny runner

    Sounds like it's sucking air somewhere? Do the starting fluid test: start the motor, spray SF around the intake side, if spraying makes a difference? then it's sucking air somewhere. Possible the fuel pumps diaphragm needs eplaced? Excess smoke: the motors been setting and the gas/oil that's...

    WATER PUMP LINER

    No liner for the pump. They came bare pot metal. The pot metal can be in really bad shape and still work.

    What is this?

    Just tuck it up inside the case or run the boats hose to the lower unit. Or just cut it off, won't hurt anything. Lots of times the pitot tube on the boat: the tip gets broken off and the speedo doesn't work, make sure it's not broken and the pitot is in the locked position.

    1991 Force 90hp starting problem

    The adjustments need to be done on a warm motor, in the water and in gear. Some motors, no matter what you do just don't idle as good as you think they should. The 85: the factory sent out a bulletin stating the 85 needs to have the air screw set at 1 turn out and left there. All of the 85's I...

    85hp. You check the oil? What T@T do you have? the 85 used 2 different ones. The older had a 3 wire the ones from 86/7 on used a 2 wire. Post a pic or 2 of the one you have?? The pumps available usually the cheapo ones were made in China and were junk. Some were junk right out of the box.

    1991 Force 90hp starting problem

    Buy muffs and duct tape them in place. Needs to be dry,dry,,dry. Then turn the hose up as far as it goes. Bucket: needs to have the water 4-5 inches over the cavitation plate. These pumps aren't self priming and needs to be under water to start.
