    25 horse Evinrude eTec Stops Running

    I don’t know squat about the Etec technology but there has been a lot of chatter on here about the power pack or equivalent over heating. Do a bit more looking around through old post and you will find lot of talk about it on here. Best

    1969 Evinrude 25hp 25903D points issue

    I know I have replaced condensers due to a request and ended up put the old ones back in because the new were no good. It’s definitely worth looking into if you replaced them. I can’t remember if you said you did or not. Bad case of CRS this morning.

    1991 20HP Evinrude no acceleration

    Sure sounds like a spun hub. I always carry a spare prop thrust washer nut and pin. Just for this reason. You just never know where or when it’s going to happen.

    50 hp OMC triple vibration at lower rpm

    I think he may be saying the cylinder sleeve could have rotated a bit. This would mean the ports are not in perfect alignment.

    I have no personal experience with a prop surround but it seams if you were concerned you would need one then a little loss of performance would be better than damaging your prop or even worse the lower unit. Best

    1984 Evinrude 25hp mounting

    I was just wondering you had done a lot of filing and possibly changed the shape. Filing out small nicks is common but to do a proper job if it’s bent it should be done at a prop shop. It’s hard to tell from the photos but it looked like the leading edges were bent up which would cause it to...

    1984 Evinrude 25hp mounting

    Did you do any filing to that prop? The leading edges look like they have been shaped somewhat. In for very first post the prop doesn’t look like it was in great shape to start with. You could be getting some cavitation.

    60HP 1989 Johnson outboard low compression

    You can use a zip tie around the shaft on your hone to use as a depth guide if your worried about bottoming out. If you do bottom out to hard it can chip the stones so be gentle. Take full length smooth strokes as evenly as possible. Use plenty of oil for lubricant and try to remove the scoring...

    60HP 1989 Johnson outboard low compression

    My thoughts as well. I was called out for a fire alarm and couldn’t finish. The rod caps are fractured so they can go back on the same rod only one way. This is totally normal if that is in fact what you were looking at. Best

    Are you talking about the joint at the rod and the rod caps being cracked?

    How do I remove this stuck impeller key?

    Just pull or pry the impeller up the shaft.

    60HP 1989 Johnson outboard low compression

    Yes you can tap on the puller bolt and it does help. It sounds like you know not to bang and the flywheel it’s self. I can’t say I have never tapped on a flywheel but it was just light taps around the shaft only. You will get it off. Best
