    power trim stays on 150 2000 johnson

    Water got in the switch....the one below the cowl, and can't get out. This should be easy to diagnose. You have a short somewhere. Do you have a meter and do you know how to use one?

    Alternator, fuse able links and battery's test ok but alt is singing, hotter than hell and stinks like burning electrical. Best guess the alt is on its way out. Let me know if you don't agree.

    Opinion on Evinrude 25hp not peeing

    First video is labeled private. Remake that video. Your hand pump might pump more velocity than your impeller so not sure if that test proves anything. Grommet, gasket, cracked block could be issues but usually it's something dumb.

    OMS help needed

    What's an OMS pump.....should just be the vro pump. Inexpensive diaphragm flap. Better question is is why didn't the low pressure oil alarm go off. Also, there is a check valve issue with those. Try running it with the oil cap off the oil tank. (Check valve test)

    Customer advice

    He just sent me more pictures after he honed it out. Plus these readings. Did a light cleanup with the hone. Cylinders measure right at 3.217 and the spec for .030 over is 3.217 - 3.128. Think I might just hone them a little more and slap some new .030 over pistons in.

    Fuel pump or carb clean/settings not done properly. This assumes compression is acceptable. Full diagnostic of this motor is needed.
