    Yamaha 4SG leaking water around tilt lock plate pin

    I had a newer 4 hp but the leg configuration was the same. The rubber cover is where you disconnect the shift linkage....Never really looked at mine but I wouldn't be surprised at all to see water coming out from the spot you pointed out. Did you check head temperature?

    How much water?

    I would pull the foot and inspect/double check pump. After installing you can put a cordless drill on the driveshaft and test in a barrel of some kind. I would want to know before I went to the river.

    How much water?

    You might have burned up the impeller running it without enough water. Either way, pull the gearcase and be done with it.

    How much water?

    Because it's being forced up there. Pump is not self priming so must be higher than the pump at least when running in a tank. Clip some muffs on it or raise your water level.

    Could be a small crack in your air box.

    How much water?

    You say you flushed it out through the water pump discharge. Do you mean the pickup tube? If you did flush through the pickup tube and water came out and it won't with the pump than you must have done something wrong. Keeper seems the most likely.

    1977 Evinrude 85hp - Oil Leaking from Air Silencer Cover

    In my experience when the motor is tilted gas mixed oil goes into the air box but the OP said it never did before. Another words you don't need to explain it to me.

    1977 Evinrude 85hp - Oil Leaking from Air Silencer Cover

    I'm assuming it's part number 25, 38 and 2 making the connection. Not sure what that does. I do know that when tilted the floats will allow fuel to pass and flow out the carbs. Let's see what the masters say.

    1977 Evinrude 85hp - Oil Leaking from Air Silencer Cover

    Must be a failed check valve in that line but others will be better able to confirm. Either way it must be gas mixed with oil.

    running rough

    Compression test at WOT. Carbs need to be removed and cleaned/rebuilt.

    Fix overheat problem first. Most likely plugged up water passages.

    1977 Evinrude 85hp - Oil Leaking from Air Silencer Cover

    Your outboard should be using pre-mixed 50 to 1 fuel so where is the oil coming from? It should be mixed oil and gas and it's quite normal to drip out of the carbs when tilted up.

    CROSSFLOW PERFORMANCE ?'s

    Well 15 gallons on an older carberated 115 doesn't last long. (In comparison I have 37 gallons on a Etec 115) There used to be a formula for gallons per hour on two strokes based on cylinders and throttle. Anyhow, maybe you were low on fuel and just sucked up some air loosing power and then it...

    8hp Evinrude running poorly.

    The 6 HP and the 8 hp have the same block so it wouldn't matter. They just let the motor spin up more with carberation and intake. Are you using your 4 on the rubber boat? I still think all the barrell running and lugging it on the rubber boat has fouled it up. It's either that or you have the...
