    Motor wise, is there a chance it's overheating?

    96 Evinrude 50 Cutting Out

    You have a two wire overheat sensor.....could be the diode in the harness died putting you in safe or limp mode.

    1994 Johnson 150 HP

    Try pumping the primer ball as it starts to die....if it runs look at or fix the fuel pump. As far as the sensor....replace it.

    Johnson 40hp 2005 link and idle adjustments

    Sounds like carburetion.....air coming from somewhere. Spray something combustible around....could be timing though. Your idle circuit should not be spun out that far. Did you rebuild the carbs with OEM parts? Are the plastic carb parts warped?

    Choke stays closed

    Like tim says, the purple and white wire should be hot when you first turn the key and push it in. HOT WHEN YOU PUSH IN THE KEY. if it's not hooked up, problem solved. https://maxrules.com/graphics/omc/wiring/25_35_82-83_elec-remote.jpg

    Which one is the boss gasket?

    Maybe this will help. Also, carb cleaner or I sometimes use vinegar. Welding tip cleaners are a must. https://www.marineengine.com/parts/johnson-evinrude-parts.php?year=1975&hp=2&model=2R75D&manufacturer=Johnson&section=CARBURETOR

    Well you know it's not the engine or it's components. Not sure which wire your talking about but my next place would be the key switch. But just in case you do old dumb things like me let's add, is it in neutral? And is the man overboard tether clipped into its spot?

    Johnson stops dead!

    Yes, I'm a "Catcherman" myself....lots of salmon, cod and halibut. Salt water guy obviously. Many moons ago I watched some TV shows where guys were catching huge giant mutant king salmon on lake Erie. Do they still have those fish? Glad you got the the boat going.

    Sorry....turning over I take it. Grounding wire is still grounded most likely. Race is correct. Unplug the red plug and see if it starts by jumping the solenoid. That will prove that you are hooked up to the wrong wire maybe. Might be a non compatible tach. Make it run, then you know it a...

    1996 Evinrude 48spl warning sound

    No blocking diode in slow mode VE115TLETS wiring harness????

    You can buy these at most auto stores or buy one online....they measure the ark of the spark to see if your getting the "wack" that you need. I think you have a spark issue but you could have fuel....just never know until you work through them all. As far as compression, those numbers are...

    No blocking diode in slow mode VE115TLETS wiring harness????

    Try starting it and remove one plug wire at a time and see what it does. I think you purchased to many parts and one of the power packs isn't working or isn't working correctly. Are you using the boats main tank or a portable tank?
