    Is there a way to access error codes without a scan tool? Any links to a service manual? J

    2017 Mercury 25, Fuel Injected, 4-Stroke Skipping

    Model: F25ELPT, 1A25413EK. Serial: 0R795071. Starts and idles great. At throttle up it may take off and feel good but after maybe 30 seconds it will skip like its falling off and struggling to survive. Pulling the throttle back and waiting a few seconds may let you throttle up again but the...

    2017 Volvo Penta 240 V6 Alarm Going Off

    Half second burst, every 60 seconds. The service manual that I have indicates transom or sterndrive problem. Any ideas what it could be? Thank you, J

    2018 E-TEC 25 hp Not Running Well

    Thank you all for the information. As for how to hot wire the motor for checkout, are you saying unplug at the motor harness connector, put 12 v on the blue and ground on the green and vice versa? I guess I don't understand where to pick up ground path. J p.s., I have also found the fuel to...

    2018 E-TEC 25 hp Not Running Well

    You can tell I'm old fashioned and not familiar with E-TECs or using a laptop to identify problems. I use a meter, compression gauge and spark tester and every now and then jumper wires. lol I'll need to do some homework and decide if a marina is my better option. I'm pretty sure something...

    2018 E-TEC 25 hp Not Running Well

    Hi. Working on a 2018 E-Tec 25 hp, model E25DPSLAFD, serial 5526976 . Runs very poorly when throttled up. Shouldn't leave the dock... I'd like to at least split the problem between fuel delivery and ignition. I enhanced the timing marks on the flywheel and added my own for cylinder #2...

    2003 Honda BF90A Stalls at Throttle Up

    I called a dealer who advised the main nozzles should indeed be free and clear. I couldn't get a wire all the way through but a squirt of carburetor cleaner assures me the passages are clear. I also found another jet blocked on all 4 carburetors, inside the bowl adjacent to the main nozzle...

    2003 Honda BF90A Stalls at Throttle Up

    Bueller? Bueller? Spark present on all 4 cylinders. Compression: 200, 205, 200, 198 psi I took the rack of carburetors off and am going through each one. My question now: Should the Jet Set (parts list item 18) and the Main Nozzle (parts list item 20) be essentially a clear tube? I've opened...

    2003 Honda BF90A Stalls at Throttle Up

    Hi. I'm staring at a Honda BF90A, Serial BBBL-1G06752. 2003, I believe. Bringing it back from the brink. I have it starting and idling well, but, when I ask for throttle it dies right away, whether or not I put it in gear. If I add choke it will come back to life and increase smoothly. It...

    1967 Evinrude Sport 4 60 hp, 60753 A, Configuration Question

    Thank you! jimmbo, thank you. I don't think the fuel pump is the issue. We've squeezed the ball, played with choke, rotated distributor, twisted carb screws and we just don't seem to get a consistent response. We could pull the line, roll the starter and see how she spurts. But, since we're...

    1967 Evinrude Sport 4 60 hp, 60753 A, Configuration Question

    Took it out for a jaunt. Even with questionable performance we tried to let it run. Accelerates, falls off, ...repeat. Very inconsistent. When it runs, it's a great ride. Tried a little ignition advance play with no effect. Tried playing with carburetors and found the port side to be...

    60 hp EFI Won't Stay Running

    Indeed. Pulled the fuel pump exit line and got nothing. Opened the fuel pump and wondered how it even worked. Check valve not seated, no rubber bullet holding it in place, diaphragms decomposed. A complete mess. Replaced fuel pump. Great fuel flow from exit. Fuel also exits the Schrader...

    Okay, ... we'll take a peek. Seems that would also blow up the consumption number... J

    1967 Evinrude Sport 4 60 hp, 60753 A, Configuration Question

    All good. Outstanding! Thank you, so much. J It's kind of weird to see all that fuel going into water. Vive la 60's!!!

    1967 Evinrude Sport 4 60 hp, 60753 A, Configuration Question

    I'd not seen this before. Its a lot of water draining. Is the exhaust leg full up top the water line? The fuel consumption does seem high. If I were to guess, maybe 2 mi/gal. Does this carburetor have a high speed adjustment where I can meter that? Thank you, all, J

    1967 Evinrude Sport 4 60 hp, 60753 A, Configuration Question

    I'm helping a friend with a 1967 Sport 4 60, model 60753 A. The engine is emitting some kind of oil / water mix through a small hole in the port side of the lower leg. The emission is mix of oily stuff, water and some kind of foamy stuff. With the engine shut down, fluid and bubbles drain out...

    60 hp EFI Won't Stay Running

    Hi, I am looking at a 60 hp 4-stroke, EFI that won't stay running. Starts fine, idles well, take it out and throttle up and it will die within a minute. Squeeze the ball, start it, repeat... Seems like it is fuel starvation. If it were carbureted, we'd consider a stuck needle valve and float...
