    Either you have a spun prop hub or somehow your cavitating the prop. When you start out and punch it are you trimmed all the way down?

    Should I opt for oil delete? confused. seeking expert consult

    That about does it.....I usually get a long skinny brush and degrease/clean out the tilt tube. When it's out of the tilt tube try it then....if still hard you will have to purchase a new cable. Good luck.

    69 9.5 Evinrude spuddering/coughing

    Those 3 little holes on the carb body must be open. With air and carb cleaner you can see if they are flowing if you study how to do it.

    Auto Bilge Pump Wiring

    I'd say you had a bad switch either internally or on the dash. The pump should only receive power from one source at a time. Does the pump have an auto water sensing switch on it or a manual moving switch?

    EVINRUDE 25 hp lower unit

    Funny, I have a 77 and the foot is configured like this. I wonder why they used 2 and maybe even 3 during those years. Was a 28 a downsized outboard? Maybe they had lots of gearcase's laying around? I also wonder if there all interchangeable.

    Broken head bolt. Evinrude 150 E150EXERV.

    Ouch, I broke an easy out once and it wouldn't drill out. Total disaster. A tap in aluminum, almost unbelievable.

    1973 25 Hp. Johnson Running Rough

    Sometimes kill switches will test correctly with continuity but not work right. Many more volts going through them. I would unhook them and see if the top cylinder fires.
