    1980 Evinrude 35hp water pump replacement help

    A vague memory may be telling me that's where the shift linkage connects. Is that right?

    1980 Evinrude 35hp water pump replacement help

    I'm about to replace the impeller and housing in my old 35. The last time I did it was 1999 and I'm having trouble remembering how the shift linkage comes loose to remove the lower unit. I can't see anything near the power head.

    Remote shift and throttle for 2017 20hp Mercury?

    Still not coming up with anything definitive. I may have to call a Mercury dealer. I'm just dreading the markup.

    '53 Evinrude 7.5 prop retainer

    I inherited my grandfather's 1953 Evinrude Fleetwin 7.5 outboard. The rubber cone that keeps the shear pin secure is dry and hard. I don't trust it to keep during use. I've tried ebay etc. But I could do better if I had an OMC part #. Any gurus out there with a book or something? The old motor...

    1986 Johnson Sailmaster 4hp. Having trouble finding parts

    My 4hp Belgian made Johnson 4hp needs a sleeve for the top cylinder. I have had no success finding the sleeve and limited success finding used engine cases. All the cases are the wrong year. I've searched this site and ebay. Any ideas?

    Year and HP?

    I have this old motor that came off an old sailboat. The engine runs but has low compression in the top cylinder. Hard to find parts if I don't know what it is. :) All I know is that it's an OMC and it's small.

    First ride on the (new) polaris 750. Problems

    Took it out today for the first run. Did great for about an hour and then started bogging down, almost like it was running out of fuel. Didn't make a difference weather it was on run or reserve. I limped it back to the trailer and headed home. Gonna check the fuel filter if I can find it. Maybe...

    Having trouble finding prop for 4hp motor

    I have a 1986 Johnson 4hp Belgian motor that has a plastic prop. I use it in some fairly shallow water and would like a spare prop to keep on hand. I can't find anything specific. I'll try to get a part # off the old prop and see if that will help.

    Mid 70s 25hp Evinrude prop questions

    I have 3 props that I got with my 1975 Evinrude 25hp and had a couple questions. 1: 2 of the props don't have the size/pitch listed on them. All they say is "Michigan" "PJ" "16" What pitch are they? The third prop is a 9 1/4 x 11. They look the same as the third prop but are they the same? 2...

    Repainting floor. Best paint?

    I'm wanting to repaint the floor in my 14 foot Broze skiff. The previous owner used epoxy paint that didn't react to the flex of regular use well at all. It is cracking and flaking off in bulk. I found that a pressure washer will take most of the old paint off and I should be able to scrape the...

    New fuel pump does not = good pump

    A "new" fuel pump does not necessarily mean a "good" fuel pump. Symptom: Backfiring and won't run for longer than a couple seconds. Remedy: Replaced the fuel pump and rebuilt the carb a couple weeks ago. I took care of my persistant backfiring by regapping the points. but it still wouldn't...

    1975 Evinrude 25hp Compression ???

    I performed a compression test on my 75 Evinrude 25hp and got 90psi out of both cylinders. This motor seems to be running good now with a new fuel pump installed. But just out of curiosity, I did a compression test on one of my 1974 Johnson 25hp parts motors and got 120psi out of both cylinders...
