    Check your tach otherwise you need a 15 pitch at least. Must be a light boat.

    1973 4hp Evinrude

    Who's the maker of the service manual and in general I wasn't talking about just the pin. No problem with you working on it or even enjoying posting.... it's just at the end of the day don't expect it to be a real good outboard for you.

    1973 4hp Evinrude

    Really it's kind of wall art.....if you want to continue to play around with it purchase a factory manual and tear it down and restore it. Newer more modern motors work better for actual use but I have fun cleaning them up. Just remember at the end of the day what you really have.

    Guess Who needed a tow home ?

    Just look up linc and sync for your motor....typically takes 2 or 3 times before I get it exactly the way I want it. Easy job? Not really, but gets easier every time I do it. I don't use the carb pointer tool that the manufacturer says you need.

    If yours has a choke it must have something to do with it being special.

    Guess Who needed a tow home ?

    OMC service bulletin stated that you should be a 1/4 to 1/2 inches forward of the two lines. Mine hesitates if I run it between the two lines when I punch it, but if I run it about 3/8 of an inch ahead of that it's smooth when I push the throttle up. I guess if yours is working fine I'd leave...

    Guess Who needed a tow home ?

    I know I'm not on the Mercury forum but I'm trying to rebuild this carburetor for my neighbor. She lost her husband and her two outboards sat for 7 years and one of them started running and then didn't. This one particular screw has an opening on the back side which allowed it to get stuck and...

    I agree and you must be a swedish guy like me because, and no offense, you don't listen.

    Guess Who needed a tow home ?

    I have it's sister....you have the red headed step sister. Always abused but usually comes through. Mines seen the bottom of the ocean and still runs....minus wiring/starter issues.

    Can anyone tell me the name of this part?

    Usually unavailable. Test that one or find a used one. Not sure why this problem has been fixed....hoping it has.

    Very nice of him. Borrow someone else's tester or buy a new one. Lots of testers seem to be off. Remove the head and inspect like you were told. Post pictures.

    What does 90 s mean? Wire colors may have bleached away. Blue stripe (sky) on top green stripe (grass) on bottom. Your combustion chamber May check out compression wise but what about your internal compression? If your motor doesn't have internal compression it won't push fuel into the...

    I think your fine to do nothing but that scenario does not happen here. Saltwater is my issue. I'd say you need to devise a way to fresh water rinse it from time to time. I'm a E-tec owner and there pretty impressive. You need to "learn up" on them though....here is the best web site for Etec's...

    battery stil good ???

    Emm is the best thing to ever happen to any motor if you ask me....and especially a 2 stroke. Amazing motor, hope they bring them back. 2005? Must be one of the first.... Kudos to you for keeping it going. In my world, a backup motor is a requirement along with an anchor.
