    1970 4 hp Evinrude stops suddenly

    sounds like an internal clog... bad coils could fail as well as broken wires but I can't see them causing overheating with the head off see if you can probe, wiggle a nylon line (weed wacker stuff) up and in accessible water ways . try strong air pressure backwards etc... btw I...

    Great ! it is now a wait and see... my 75ETEC is 17 years old with no injector issues yet but I guess anything can happen. MINd you I have less than 600 hrs on mine I would insist on getting a EMM log dump because "thinking" the injectors are the cause is just thinking and guessing...

    Evinrude 40 HP Carburetor Help

    ok found this utube... fuel nipple is just an inlet nipple....nothing to worry about see video of the 88 40hp carb probably identical to yours :) the top idle jet is actually for AIR not fuel !! I learned something today :-)

    see diagram... see parts 6 and 9 #6 is called " fuel nipple" and obviously it must pass fuel #2 lead plug must be in #9 idle jet must be clean . I never saw a par16 on older carbs so this newer e carb body was molded for it ... it is all in your hands now :-)

    I don 't see orings in the parts layout above. which hole ?? on top of the carb did you look down in ..... is it below the #2 lead plug...I do not think that lead plug should allow you to "see" down the carb otherwise the carb would suck air and null out the idle circuit functions on the...

    Evinrude Mate 2 HP Driveshaft

    does water get in the GC...? maybe best to look for a spare shaft or just change the oil mid season if it does leak some welding shops can " blast" weld" the groove away $$$$ but not very cost effective on a 50 y old motor. oil is cheaper :-)

    Evinrude 40 HP Carburetor Help

    great find... looking at that drawing It did not show that brass tube the side channel route used for ages does not seem to used on this carb if an internal feeder tube is used to route fuel to the upper LS jet and drip chamber. In any event I think you are on the way to happiness :-)...

    Evinrude 40 HP Carburetor Help

    the engine sucks " idling" fuel from the bottom of the carb bowl via a very small side channel leading up to that drip chamber under plug#5 make certain you have the proper gasket to accomodate the side channel feed route because some "similar" gaskets (depending on the kit) do not have...
