    1976 Johnson 70hp will only run low rpm after warming up.

    Does it say BRP or Evinrude anywhere on it? Did the motor ends have yellow inserts in them?

    Primer Bulb

    You bought a cheap primer ball. Evinrude does not use hose clamps on theirs. Go buy a quality one.

    2005 mercury 90 2 stroke runs terrible

    What is you compression? Have you tested the stator or anything else? Stop revving it in neutral before you wreck it. Does spark jump a 7/16" air gap. Is your fuel fresh? Any water in it? Oil injection checked to be working?

    Spark plug issue

    There is a service bulletin for those motors. Your plugs should not be black all the time. Black plugs are indicative of a rich running motor.

    1988 50hp Evinrude tilt/trim sensor

    The trim sending unit is usually a plastic switch that goes up and down with the motor. A continuity test will help you test that. It could also be your gauge.

    Flywheel occasionally locks up

    Check to make sure the new stator is not binding first. If that is ok then pull the lower unit off and try it.

    Carrier bearing Merc9.9 2001 ? Left hand threads? Serial # OT216073. Part# 42144t3

    I did not say they were good but there are 2 different versions. The design 1 has a bushing and design 2 has bearings. Mercury sells that lower unit brand new for around a $1000. I am also pretty sure that the older bushing can be replaced with the newer bearings.

    No pee Johnson outboard

    What temp is this motor running at? If you have water coming out the exhaust holes you more than likely have flow through the motor.
