    How to find cid?

    I have a 1980 175hp evinrude v6 crossflow and I am trying to find the cid. The crankshaft broke in two just below the flywheel and I found a v6 crossflow crankshaft from an 83(?) 150hp engine. The 150 is a 149cid and I am trying to find out if mine is a 149cid as well and if the crankshaft will...

    Can you tell the year or model from this?

    This was the only number i found that didn't look like a casting number. I also added a pic of the motor. Other than the year the main question i am trying to answer is the details of the bore. I have had others mention this could be a 234cid or a 149cid possibly. I don't know...Any help would...

    175HP EVI, Is it worth it?

    I wanted to see if I could get a few opinions. I ran across a decent fixer upper boat with a 175hp v6 Evinrude. Guy said it was running good then starter was acting weird. I looked at it and noticed it was the crankshaft that broke just below the top flywheel that was the problem, not the...

    60hp Mariner: Trouble cranking and idling

    This is for my brothers boat so I will try to give as much info as possible. Mid to late 80's 60hp Mariner engine. He told me it cranks and runs perfectly at home hooked to the waterhose but when he puts it in the lake it is very hard to get cranked and doesn't want to idle. I am assuming it...

    Starter question

    You will have to excuse my lack of knowledge in the proper terminology of a starter but I will try my best. My starter shorted on me last weekend so I found a used one to put back on it. Everything went on fine and it turns over with no problem. My problem is the bendix (? part with 9 teeth that...

    Dull Paint...

    I have a 1977-78 15 ft. Kingfisher I recently bought and I am dressing up the neglected areas. This past weekend I ripped up the carpet and painted in some fresh topside paint... what a difference. My other plan was to get some rubbing compound and bring the shine back to the rest of the boat...

    Alternator?

    1977 Chrysler 75hp outboard motor (model: 757 HC). Excuse my ignorance of this motor, I recently bought it and it is stored at my brothers so I have really only seen it 3 times and I never think to look at things until I am at home pondering all the things I want and need done to it and the...

    Thingamajig???

    1977 Chrysler 75hp outboard motor (model: 757 HC). I figured I would use the proper terminology this time. It is obviously not a whatchamacallit. Man I really need to order a good manual so I don't have to ask what something is every time, but until then... On the starboard side of the engine...

    Whatchamacallit???

    i just bought an old fishing boat this past weekend that has a 1977 Chrysler 75hp outboard motor (model: 757 HC). The guy I bought it from took me out on the lake so I could check everything prior to purchase and when he went to crank it the first time it was cold and didn't want to crank. He...
