    Evinrude 115 Won't Idle?

    If pumping the ball helps it might be worth taking a look at your fuel line for internal deterioration causing an obstruction and checking the tank vent.

    1987 Johnson 50HP cooling route

    I have watched your video 10 times now and I’m still not sure what to say. Although it is normal for some water to flow from that area it does seem to be a bit excessive in my option. Hopefully someone else will chime in and help you out. Sorry I couldn’t be of more help. Best

    1990 20 hp johnson manual start Primer

    Yes there is no choke butterfly. When you pull the knob it squirts fuel into the carb. Just like your old style way of doing it manually.

    1990 20 hp johnson manual start Primer

    If it’s the pull style manual primer pull the knob 2 or 3 times. After it starts check to be sure the knob retracted all the back in.

    1987 Johnson 50HP cooling route

    You may have some blockage within the water passages. You might be able to track it down to a general area with an inferred temp gun. But at the end of the day you would be better off pulling the head and cleaning out the passages. Was this a salt water motor?

    25hp intake nipple backfiring fuel

    What type of primer do you have? Manual or electric? If electric is the red lever in the manual position? If manual the seals could be shot.

    1974 Evinrude 25hp wont run.

    The mixing instructions will be on your oil container. Quicksilver products are for Mercury as stated on the label. Use a Johnson/ Evinrude product like HPF Pro. I’m jumping off this train. Best

    TCW3 is my choice. You could use others but they are formulated more toward air cooled motors. That’s May 2 cents.

    Evinrude family heirloom

    I say go for it. You will find all the help you need right here. Take lots of pictures during disassembling if your not confident about what your doing so you will have them to reference on reassembly. It sounds like it was well taken care of so you shouldn’t in theory have to get to deep into...

    1974 Evinrude 25hp wont run.

    Take a look at the fuel line on your tank as well. The ethanol gas these days can break down the lines internally and cause all kinds of problems. I hear the newer gray lines are the worst but I had a black one fail on me last year after just a couple of months. It was turning my fuel black and...

    1989 25 hp evinrude water still not coming out the tell tail

    That’s looks like very old gas to me or it has been contaminated by something. Get rid of it and start fresh. And take a good look at your fuel line. It may be breaking down internally.

    Yes they will make a difference. They should be the RJ8C I’m a fan of NGK and that would the BR6S I believe but you should double check if you go with NGK

    I should add don’t use a lot of pressure. Maybe 15lb at most.

    Lower unit filled with grease

    You could try blowing most it through with compressed air. Use a rubber tip blow nozzle on a blow gun in the top vent and push it out the bottom drain.

    I agree No one is forced to answer your questions and if someone has had enough they are free to jump off the train at any time. Best
