    Off button on 1973 110 9.8 hp

    My off button recently has been acting funny. It will not stop the motor at times, at other times it will only make it half way stop, and few times it will stop the motor as it should. What is the problem? It just started doing this last time I took the boat out.<br />Thanks!!!

    1973 9.8 hp Merc 110

    Stupid question, but maybe not. I have noticed this grasy oily film running down the back of my motor where the lower unit meets. Is this just from the exhaust, that is what it looks like. I am hoping so and not a leak of oil from the lower unit. If your out there Crom, I am about to tackle...

    1973. 9.8 hp Merc 110

    I have a 1973 9.8 hp merc 100 that has very little hours on it. I bought it about 3 weeks ago and ran it this weekend, it runs great. Only one worry though-- when I get to full throttle the motor starts to "tick" faintly. The tick is not steady, it will tick once, then after about 1 or 2 seconds...

Do you know if the transom mounts can be turned around to be like a bow mount? I guess it would be like some sort of conversion. What would...
