    Check/Fix/Replace Starter Motor 1996 50hp

    Without going back through the posts, and assuming this is a remote motor, have you removed the control box plug from the motor and then try testing the starting stuff back at the motor. Usually I jump the solenoid and at that point the kill circuit will somewhat be removed from the system. At...

    Check/Fix/Replace Starter Motor 1996 50hp

    A little confused about your terminology, but the kill system can test good (continuity wise) but still fail under full load. Everything hooked up completely right that is. Something is robbing power.

    Check/Fix/Replace Starter Motor 1996 50hp

    I was just looking through the eyes of an inexperienced or super busy op....compared to many starters it's not AS easy. Simple tool is easy to make.

    Check/Fix/Replace Starter Motor 1996 50hp

    Agreed, starter is pretty easy to test and cleanup. Installing the brushes is the hardest part but doable. While spinning and under load, that starter should read 10.5 volts or so. I assume you have bench tested the starter on the outboard....(By passed some electrical components) ?

    trying to install a pre-owned PTT to a1996 Johnson 50

    You can just buy the handle trim assembly online or used. There's plenty out there or go to one on the dash. I've always gone with the throttle one though, safer and more effective.

    Water pressure valve replacement 2000 evinrude 4stroke

    Parts 5, 6 and 7 will give you "the glory" but like everyone says....you need nothing. Follow the yellow brick road and get what the scarecrow needed. 🤓

    Water pressure valve replacement 2000 evinrude 4stroke

    I'd leave it alone and test. Run some mild soap or something. Impeller yes, stats? No. I don't work on those motors but I've never seen a design where you don't have access to areas.

    67 Year Old Head Bolts

    I raced two stroke dirt bikes, YZ 400 was my last full on one ... We had the little cable clamps with the little WD-40 hole for the tube. Pulling outboard bolts has been fairly easy to me.. now... that I have failed many many times! 🤓

    Yeah colored crayons discolor the paint for sure, I just use light or dark depending on the motor so white on white and the darker on the darker.

    67 Year Old Head Bolts

    I use map gas and go forever....sometimes the original OMC paint doesn't even show much harm amazing stuff. Acetylene, map gas I've used them all. Map gas or an induction here is all you need that in a few crayons.

    1977 70 hp johnson thermostat housing gasket

    I pull my thermo stats out every year and soak them in salt away. Keeps everything nice but I'm saltchu.... I talk to myself all the time when I'm working on stuff....deeply into it. But I don't write to myself usually. Pretty intense stuff.
