    1976 25 johnson seahorse impeller

    model 25E76E. Problem, no water coming out of exhaust.Trying to drop lower unit to replace impeller. Do these two shift rod screws (I take it that is what they are) get totally taken out or just loosened? I loosened both but lower unit doesn't drop. Probably just needs a tap with a 2x4 but will...

    75 hp Merc 1997 / No spark

    Just a note. It took 2 months of testing and retesting all systems on my 75 Merc to try to find out why I had no spark on all 3 cyls (It's winter so boat is just sitting in my garage until spring thaw anyway) just to find that the two yellow leads from the stator had overheated at the...

    Burrs in tilt tube??

    After hammering for a week on steering rod to get it out of tilt tube in 1986 2 stroke 150 HP blackmax, it finally came out.

    After 2 hours of lowest speed possible trolling, my motor died. Put on a timing light and found I have no spark. First problem of any kind in the three & 1/2 years I've owned the motor. Where do I look next? Fuse under cowling is good.
