    1990 70hp Evinrude Synchronization procedure problems

    You do not care about idle timing. On muffs set the idle for 1100 rpm and if you have adjustable carbs set them at 1.5 turns out for a start.

    McCULLOCH not running right

    What year is your motor? There was no 45 up in 1957. Does it have dual carbs? Does spark jump a 1/4" air gap? What is your compression? Have you cleaned the carb? Is the fuel pump Diaphragm in good condition? Fuel pump check valves good? And if it actually says McCulloch on the hood it is 64 or...

    SCOTT ATWATER IGNITION COILS

    Let me look at mine but I believe OMC coils work you just need to mount them. The 74-76 OMC 9.9/15 coils would probably be the best.

    1986 25 hp Johnson remote start. Small hoses location

    Sorry spell check sucks. If you are talking about the primer ,one small nipple goes to the intake and one goes to the carb. Now if you have the third nipple behind the fuel pump. Then you need to tee off one of the smaller lines does not matter which one.
