    1979 25 HP Evinrude

    No need to replace safety switch if you have good spark. Look elsewhere or retest for GOOD spark.

    200 HP 4 stroke susuki

    No other opinions? In my mind, flushing ports are for flushing when motor off, otherwise test tank/barrels or muffs when running.

    Johnson 4HP questions

    What year is the six? Most likely that's all you need. I like about the 82 on up....older ones are fun to work on and then put them out to pasture. (Wall) Most 6 thru 8 are the same weight. Carb and restrictor plate. Best not to fool with them.

    Slippage... Spun hub, slipping. Rpm's are to high. Wrong prop or failed hub are some of the things that caused that. Try boat loaded up....(Humans, food, beer, fishing equipment, hot woman with not much clothing on.....throttle to the floor, trimmed up. With this example you should not go...
