    1973 4hp Evinrude

    you don't need a fancy timing light to service a 4hp. Just set points at .020 with the cam lobe's high point or use the voltmeter test. Yet .020 isn't all the t important was is .. is that point open at EXACTLY TDC the VOM will tell you or a simple LED or bulb on a battery will tell you...

    Evinrude 9.9 HP Model # 10924B

    if you ever decide to open and service those square pumps keep an eye for small springs and tiny mushroom caps. To re-assemble I put on small drop of crazy glue on the spring's locating dimple and on the mushroom caps to secure then on the spring ends so they don't fly off to never to...

    2006 Johnson 15 HP 4 Stroke bogs when snapping throttle

    the bulb becomes hard again only if you pump it up and a full carb stops further inlet of fuel with the inlet needle/float ( works like a toilet bowl) . if the fuel does reach the carb to fill it up with other no benefits the pump is likely ok. now look for carb or ignition problems ...

    Evinrude 9.9 HP Model # 10924B

    assuming you have done a good carb cleaning and ignition is ok check (open) venting on the tank and small fuel pump screen and try hand pumping the fuel to the fuel pump if it clears the problem ( it stays running) the fuel pump may need a new diaphragm or replacement altogether...

    Battery Cables
