    Nissan NS40D2 Carburetor?

    There is a video on Youtube on bleeding an oil injected motor like this one. There is a bleed screw on the pump. This motor sat for 10 years and the line going to that pump is dry. I will probably just delete it anyway since I don't trust em no matter who the manufacturer is. Adding oil to the...

    Nissan NS40D2 Carburetor?

    Just picked up this motor last week. It's a 1999 I'm cleaning the carbs right now and noticed the top carb throttle plate only opens up maybe 75% and evidently that's factory. If I bent that tab to make it open up fully would that give me more HP? Is this Nissan's way to restrict these motors...

    Top speed??

    About 10-15 years ago I had a 9.9 carb and a 15hp carb and water tested them on the same boat/motor within minutes apart. The motor was probably a mid 80's JohnnyRude that came from the factory as a 9.9. When the 15 hp carb was on the performance was night and day. The 9.9 was a dog. No I did...

    Top speed??

    I thought the RPM max was 6K for these motors? Anyway, a 15 HP motor will kick a 9.9 butt all day long. A 15hp has soo much more low end torque and throttle response then a 9.9 does. Top end they're only a few miles apart but it takes a bit of time for the 9.9 to max out, the 15 does it in...

    1990 40hp Evinrude control box no power

    Premix on the stand I thought the previous owner deleted the VRO but upon further inspection I believe its intact hence the alarm going off.

    1990 40hp Evinrude control box no power

    Found a good fuse and cranked it up. The buzz is still there but I think it has something to do with the VRO that was disconnected. When I unhook the VRO wires the buzz goes away. Motor sounds good and it has good compression. LU is still good. Thanks

    1990 40hp Evinrude control box no power

    "Test the overheat warning horn too" One of the control boxes had an awful buzz when I turned the key over. Is that the overheat alarm? The buzz went away on that box but now it won't crank the motor. I hooked up the other box that didn't have a buzz and would crank the motor but now it has...

    1990 40hp Evinrude control box no power

    I was hoping you would reply racerone. It was the fuse. The fuse on this motor is located in a red rubber boot in the electrical block part of the motor. It looked like it was sealed to me so I never looked at it that close. Now to find some midget 20 amp fuses. Thanks

    1990 40hp Evinrude control box no power

    1963 Evinrude Mate 2 hp impeller

    There's a couple OEM impellers on ebay for under $20 shipped. A couple years back I bought a cheap chinese impeller for an outboard I had. It only lasted about 30 minutes before it melted. Had to of been defective but I will not be buying anymore from there.

    1963 Evinrude Mate 2 hp impeller

    You're right its a 1973 2 hp. The serial # is E0001963 which I assumed was the model year. I don't mess around much with these early OMC outboards but I couldn't pass it up for $20 at an estate sale. Thanks

    1963 Evinrude Mate 2 hp impeller

    Can these impellers still be purchased? I see aftermarket 2 hp impellers for OMC outboards built from 1967 and later. Nothing for earlier models. The closest I can get dimension wise is part # 0114812 which is about 3.5 MM smaller in total width then the original. That part # fits early 90's...

    1964 9.5 evinrude

    Bad ball or an air leak in the fuel line anywhere from the tank to the carb. If its hot it can be a bad/old impeller, blockage somewhere, or corroded water passages.

    1999 Johnson 25hp shift adjustment

    I have a 99' Johnson 25 hp with stick steer. When I shift the outboard into forward gear with the control box it will not pull the shift handle far enough to engage. I have the cable adjusted all the way in and it ain't enough. Neutral and reverse work fine with the control box. How do you make...

    Fuel primer bulb

    The fuel primer bulb keeps draining back into the tank. Every time I stop and fish I have to go to the back of the boat and squeeze the bulb firm so I can start the boat. I replaced the bulb with a new one and it does the same thing. The new bulb is an Attwood EPA type and for me to get it to...

    Mounting bunks directly to frame

    I have a trailer that a glass boat was sitting on and would like to use it for my 14' V-hull aluminum. The trailer had some type of fixed brackets for the bunk mounts and will not work for the tin boat. The width of the square tube frame is the right width to just bolt 2X4's or 2X6's flat...

    Re: Just bought an aluminum bass boat and it is slow Here's pic's of the boat. The hull looks fast to me. The people I bought it off of inherited the boat. I told them I was there to look at their aluminum bass boat and the woman told me the boat was fiberglass. A quick look under the boat...

    Just bought an aluminum bass boat and it is slow

    I just bought a 1997 Crestliner tournament 1750 aluminum bass boat. The boat is a tad over 17' long and is a v-hull. I think max HP is 140. It has a 1996 Johnson 4 cyl 115hp motor with a 14 x 19 aluminum prop. According to the web the hull weight of my boat weighs roughly 1150 pounds. I took it...
