    How to know the drive shaft length without seperate the lowerunit?

    The parts breakdown just shows you both because they use the same page for both models. It's up to you to know. The code says there the same, 20 inch, but if you look or measure the outside (tilt bracket to cav plate) they should also be the same. The difference is 5 inches so it should be...

    How to know the drive shaft length without seperate the lowerunit?

    Not exactly sure of your question but both motors have a L in the model number which means long shaft or 20 inches. Is that your question?

    Spun Prop

    You didn't seem to have any problems on the low end so you shouldn't have touched that one. Did you try the high speed when you were out bombing around?

    No start 1979 70 hp Evinrude.

    How did you jump the starter? Or did you jump the battery. Sounds like a blown fuse maybe but you might have a fried wire. Do you know how to jump a soloniod?

    Motor won’t start

    If the coil packs are wired wrong it will cause backfiring. Simple to check.

    Motor won’t start

    Check the wires going from the power pack to the ignition coils. Is orange with blue strip going to the top coil?

    Motor won’t start

    We will need more info. Compression? GOOD spark? 7/16 jump nice and blue? Fuel to the carb at least? Did you spray fuel into the front of the carb? Did you point the back of the motor towards the sun while staring at the moon? Get the point, right. We can't see it so be descriptive.

    Broken head bolt. Evinrude 150 E150EXERV.

    In this perticular spot you want to heat the bolt and let it cool over and over again. Letting someone more experienced do it is the right call. In the mean time getting it presoaked will save him some time.

    1982 Johnson 50Hp won’t start

    You can isolate the control box by disconnecting the the big red plug at the motor and manually jump the soloniod. If it runs good that way then you know it's something in the harness or box. You will need some way to shut it off.

    1974 Evinrude 115hp v4

    Lol, okay fair enough. Flare worked great, tighten up well....very snug. Probably did get lucky somewhat but line pressure isn't that much there and the motor is still working great even today.
