    1996 Evinrude Vindicator 200hp--engine keeps quitting on start-up

    Another puzzling statement, "Then, suddenly, I could hear gas making it to the carburetors, and the bulb got really tight and stiff. I'm told that is a known bulb defect of some sort."

    1996 Evinrude Vindicator 200hp--engine keeps quitting on start-up

    That's my guess. Check for 2 stroke oil in carbs.

    Evinrude wire colors

    Yes, colored tape or better yet colored heat shrink. Tinned is a must.

    Sorry that I'm adding to this never ending end, to this thread. Watch this and I had a little trouble watching it because of the platform but Yamaha's new hydrogen powered outboard. https://www.instagram.com/reel/C3Vag73LxVu/?fbclid=IwAR1d1H6ZeTeDtH_H22-CinRmqLHxTju6NjeN2PtDCMB4X2tv1JNutcEx1UU

    1986 Evinrude outboard

    Yes, your motor didn't come with oil injection or it was converted. 50 to 1 and I'm not sure I'd use that yellow bottle stuff. Brp, Merc, Yamaha....2 stroke oil. Sure to get a reaction here...oh well. I would stop and do a compression test. Make sure your all good there and then move on to...

    Yikes....2 stroke, mixed gas or it's oil injected. Need pictures to verify oil injection.

    johnson twist throttle removal 1990 20 hp tiller

    Yeah, tough one to walk you through....I'll look for a diagram if I get a chance. The "puck" should just go in a little round hole in the plastic handle (one on each side) and they slide in a channel when you twist the grip.

    Yes, but they just announced a wind tax on all sailboats world wide....they said the reason for the tax is everyone is "stealing the wind" so it's just not fair to take a natural resource for free that the governments all own. News at 11:00

    One last pic and comment before the horse is dead for good. Found this today and not sure it's real. If it is it's a pretty cool vintage outboard.

    1987 Evinrude 9.9 No Spark On Both Cylinders

    Puring like a kitten....unless you have some expensive Dyno or a really large test tank the boat is what your left with. Pretty sure your going to be okay.

    115 Crossflow Stripped Important Bolt

    I agree that experience gives you a 6th sense of tightening non critical bolts....or unloosening as well. All the critical or larger torquing bolts I use a torque wrench. If I worked for a OEM shop with newer outboards I would probably go by the book. Code changed for residential local...
