    Upper Water Tube Grommet Replacement 6hp 1985.

    BTW i did find one of the 6 bolts attaching power head was slightly loos, but it was on Port side, not Starboard side which is leaking. O-ring #9 (pencil pointing to it) is same on both Gearshift Levers.

    Upper Water Tube Grommet Replacement 6hp 1985.

    Sorry for delay in responding. Without removing the Powerhead I was able to remove little cover #70 and then removed the GearShift Lever. I have another parts motor with same Gearshift Lever which I removed. The 2 Gearshift Levers look the same, including O-ring #9. I will try to separately...

    Intermittent Pee Stream 1986 9.9hp J10RCDB.

    Above the cavitation plate and anode there are 6 holes each on starboard and port sides. 4 holes are throughholes while 2 holes are blind holes i.e. not all the way through. Is this correct configuration? It appears that even if the 2 blind holes were drilled to become throughholes there...

    Intermittent Pee Stream 1986 9.9hp J10RCDB.

    For the water intakes (below the Cavitation Plate) are the 5 holes supposed to have plastic screen? On my motor both starboard and port side the plastic screen does not exist on the lowest (5th) hole. On the starboard side the topmost screen is partially clogged. On the port side the topmost...

    Intermittent Pee Stream 1986 9.9hp J10RCDB.

    Last weekend I retested the motor mounted on my 12 foot Higbee Sneakbox and noticed that this boat has a relatively high Transom. Therefore on the boat I am not getting even 6 inches of water above the Impeller. i.e. insufficient hydrostatic head according to the 6-8inch rule. So testing in...

    Upper Water Tube Grommet Replacement 6hp 1985.

    Vic/All, Looking at the Exploded Diagram for this Model--could the problem simply be the Shift Handle O-Ring 303191 has failed? That's a lot easier and cheaper than lifting the Powerhead, etc. !!! Dave

    Upper Water Tube Grommet Replacement 6hp 1985.

    Vic, thanks for advising. Yes the telltale stream is very strong. I forgot to mention that I have already removed the Lower Unit so that I could (attempt to) inspect the Top Water Tube Grommet from underside. Unfortunately It is very difficult to do a thorough inspection from underside. Yes...

    Upper Water Tube Grommet Replacement 6hp 1985.

    Cooling water is gushing out from under the Powerhead on my model E6RCOB. The water comes out the Starboard side behind/near the Gear Shift Lever. Good news is that the water stream from the Telltale is very strong (I did a full Gearcase Housing Replacement including all Seals and Water Pump...

    Intermittent Pee Stream 1986 9.9hp J10RCDB.

    Racerone, thanks for the reminder. I retested in the Tank today but due to the configuration of my tank vs. Engine Stand I can only get water level in the tank to about 6 1/2 inches (i.e. not a full 8 inches--or more) above the top of the Impeller (not top of Water Intake). I am headed to a...

    Broken Head Bolt 1990 4hp E4RESR.

    While fixing a compression problem (90psi Upper but only 45psi Lower cylinder) I broke off one bolt. I was using a manual Impact Driver--got 5 bolts out successfully, the 6th bolt was moving slightly with the Impact Driver but in haste (even after lubricant soaking a day or two) I switched to...

    Intermittent Pee Stream 1986 9.9hp J10RCDB.

    I installed a new Water Pump kit back in April and (as an aside?) 20 PSI Pressure Test of lower unit produced no soap bubbles (i.e. Fail). When I run this motor in a water tank with water level at least 6inches above the Water Intake the Telltale usually produces no stream (this is the current...

    J15RCIA vs. J15RCIS.

    Thanks F_R. Subsequently I found that 8th position in the Model Number indicates "ModelRun/Variation" so as you say it might be a minor change (somewhat like an Engineering Change Level). i.e. not enough of a Change to justify assigning a new Model Number. Also I have made a note to check the...

    J15RCIA vs. J15RCIS.

    Hi All, I am looking to possibly buy a J15RCIA for $400 including Fuel Tank and hose/bulb. Seller says it runs good (I haven't visited yet, but might this evening). Seller also indicates that Impeller was replaced recently. It appears to have been used mostly (or completely) in freshwater...

    Disconnecting "syringe primer" 1986 8HP BE8BACDE.

    I am trying to remove the Powerhead but first need to disconnect this Choke linkage , etc. I have removed the slot head Set Screw but linkage doesn't slide apart as I would have expected. I don't want to use too much force as this might damage the internals of the (not used for many Model...

    BE8BACDE exploded view diagrams needed.

    I picked up cheap (for parts) a locked-up Belgian-made Evinrude 8hp. It looks very similar to 2 other 1984/1985 6hp motors that I have, but it has 2 unique features: 1) a 12Volt accessory plug in the Lower Engine Cover (would be cool if I could retrofit one of my other motors with this...

    Minn Kota Transom Mount Motor Transom Clamp and Washer.

    Hi All, I am repairing an Endura 50 that I bought second hand. It is missing both Clamp Washers 2011710 although both Clamp Screws 2011710 are present. What is the best way to reattach the Clamp Washer to the Clamp Screw so that the Washer spins freely on the Clamp Screw? I am thinking 2...

    Minn Kota 2005 Endura Wire Gauge(s) and Female Connectors.

    I am fixing two 2005 manufactured Endura 50 motors where previous owner removed the 5 Speed Switch 2064028 and ran the motors at a single speed by splicing appropriate wires together. While connecting 6 wires to new switches I am having trouble obtaining appropriately-sized Female Spade Quick...

    Carb removal 1998 8hp Evinrude E8RECR.

    This outboard is leaking fuel out of the screen on righthand (starboard) side of carburetor when the Primer Bulb is pumped (and even a bit while running). I strongly suspect a stuck Carb Float. What is the easiest way to remove the Carb? Do I need to remove the Breather Box and the Top Cover...

    Tip/trick for reassembling Water PumpJ10RCDB 1986 9.9hp.

    Installing a new Water Pump and am having trouble inserting Impeller Housing to Driveshaft Seal 318972 into the Impeller Housing and Seal Assembly 388289. This seems to be a REALLY tight fit. The Seal 318972 has a nice chamber on the topside outside diameter but unfortunately the underside...
