    2013 Etec Steering Question

    Odds are, the above statement has not happened. When they mounted the motor there is no reason they put a new cable on if it was working correctly. One nut to remove will explain the whole story. Problem could also be at the helm.

    Starter mounting bracket stud in front mount broken out casting

    2 things, in a similar situation my buddy dripped some aluminum in there with his tig welder and tapped it out for me and I've had that same stud fall out before and the starter still performed well. Pretty sure you might have more than one thing going on. JB weld is not going to work.

    Starter mounting bracket stud in front mount broken out casting

    Not completely understanding you but from what you said only two things can happen. They broke the stud in the intake area (drill out the stud) or that starter bracket is messed up. (Have it welded) I'm I missing something? You can't "glue" any of that stuff.

    1996 Evinrude 15HP Stuttering/Surging approaching & at WOT

    Well, we can walk you through that too if needed. Sometimes I remove the float bowl drain screw, and the idle circuit screw and blow a little bit of carb clean in the idle hole. Then I pump a bunch of gas through the bowl and let it drain for bit. A couple of jiggers or so. If you have just a...

    1996 Evinrude 15HP Stuttering/Surging approaching & at WOT

    My guess, fuel related. Sucked up some crap. Could be electrical though....so you need to count out one first. Id pull or flush the carb. Did you check to see if it was staying cool? Just because it's peeing doesn't mean it's cooling.

    96 johnson 150

    Your looking for a minimum of around 100 but hopefully more around 120. Up to 130 or 140 would be fantastic. Mainly you want them within 10% of each other.

    Evinrude 25hp outboard wants to die when I give it gas

    Sorry, but the filters help....and they help a lot. On my bigger motors I run 2. In fact, the more I think of it, you can't have enough filters. That screen does a poor job. Just saying.

    Do what you must do. Current will be the same if done correctly.

    Evinrude 25hp outboard wants to die when I give it gas

    That's the crappy one that screens boulders. I install a throw away plastic one on that same line. Pretty sure it's 10 microns.

    2014 Evinrude KNOCKING sound

    Well your motor is not running perfectly. Try the E-tec web site at barnacle bills. Sounds like a loose sparkplugs but probably an injector or something. Don't run the motor until you get it figured out.

    2013 Etec Steering Question

    First I would just remove the engine steering arm to cable and verify the engine swivels on its own. Then I heat the crap out of the tilt brackets while beating on them. Now that is what I do if the cable is stuck to the tilt tube. If the cable is froze to itself then that's easy. Unscrew the...

    25hp evinrude outboard

    Funny, I have many of those 80's motors and none have that gearcase. Is that a Canadian thing?

    1977 Johnson 140 can’t turn over

    Volts at the starter while it's spinning. Load test the battery with an old school toaster tester not the digital junk. Cleaning the outside of the starter? Look inside.....easy.

    Evinrude 25hp outboard wants to die when I give it gas

    Model number or at least the year if known. Most likely fuel carb related, is your fuel filtered? Either your running to lean or crud in carb.

    Take the air box cover off, with the engine off, put it to full throttle and send us a picture of the inside of the carb. (Butter fly valve)

    1977 Johnson 140 can’t turn over

    What is your voltage at the starter when jumping it? I believe, if I'm remembering this correctly, it shouldn't be less than 10.2 volts.

    I don't think that an 80ish outboard.
