    2000 Evinrude FICHT Tilt and Trim will not work

    what does ... "power down to the motor" mean ? are you saying power is sent down to the motor when you activate up or down toggle switches and yet the motor does not work ? and yet the motor runs ok if fed direct battery voltage on the wires going into the motor. trimming draws lots...

    '83 Evinrude 70hp lower unit rebuild

    I would venture to say... if gear turn smoothly, shifter works... just work on GC seal (all of them) proper oil for the GC will take care of the rest . use new nylon washer after every fill up !

    download and print the 2002-2006 book which covers FICHT technology.. it may help guide you but the fuel spill by the VST is a likely suspect https://drive.google.com/file/d/1x3ATT8YN38_oxZU8QUH1VMF9zKxXnXRH/view?usp=share_link

    1981 Johnson 115 voltage regulator

    no offense... did you test resistance from AC (yellows) to the red wire output only continuity (low resistance) should exist one way only either yellows to red no continuity from RED to yellows.

    My comment was simply confirmation that your filter was "obviously" the same , in the sense of Identical to the one I suggested (RACOR) . Nothing wise ass about it intended . The word "evidently" may have been more appropriate ? Sorry if you were offended. Wise ass and condesending...

    Are drive shafts interchangeable before 1992 and after 1993 for 9.9's / 15's

    have you considered just raising the transom 2 inches if feasable for you. I did that several years ago for a Classic 50 mounted on an 18 inch transom. Worked out great.

    Looking at 1991 Johnson 200 any tips?

    look for another deal... Me...I would keep away from any humpty dumpty stuff but opinions differ. Price may justify the purchase for the boat and trailer alone. Engine wise well it is coin flip.... the engine is 32 years old and lots of shops won't touch it if it ever needs repair...

    E-tec 40 hp

    I don't think your VST has an internal conical filter.. bigger engines have one on the injector return line. the external is easy to replace ... what is strongly recommended is an external fuel/water separator filter (RACOR 10 micron style ). I have used this seasence for 18 years ..no...
