    1995, 200hp, Mercury EFI is having intermittent starting problems

    I have a 1995, 200hp, Mercury EFI that is having intermittent starting problems. The last two times it started normally in the morning, we ran to our fishing spot, fished for 2 hours, and then it would not start. On the last trip it finally did start after about 5 hours after the original run...

    motor won't fire, but ran good early in the day

    I have an 1990 Evinrude 150 HP model te150sle and yesterday it fired up like normal, we had a short run and had no problems. Then when I went to go to the next spot some time later, I couldn't get it started. It did not fire at all. It cranked over easily, gas seamed to be delivered, tried...

    Flywheel Magnets

    The inner magnets came loose on my flywheel, can they be re-epoxied in the same location successfully? Is this a band aide fix or should it last long term? Thanks, Marty PS used replacement flywheels are at least $250 + shipping and tashasdaddy gave me several places to find them. Thanks again.

    I need a flywheel

    I have a 1990 Evinrude 150 hp and need a flywheel part #583844. Anyone know where i might find a new or used one? The inner magnets are damaged (I lost power on the lake and could only keep it running at 3/4 throttle. Any less than that and it died. I had to take it into my mechanic) He found...

    loss of power/no idle

    I have a 1990 Evinrude 150. It was running fine about 3/4 to 7/8 throttle and then started to slow down. No noises or rough running was associated with this loss of power. I tried to give it more gas but no response. I put it in neutral and it died. I could restart it, but only if I had 3/4...

    1990 Evinrude trim motor dead?

    I have a 150 hp 1990 Evinrude XP model TE150SLESB and the tilt and trim just stopped working. It has been sounding different for the past few months (like it was struggling a little) and today when I went to trailer it to my new house it went up about 2 inches very slowly and quit. It does not...

    Western lake map chip for Lowrance

    I have an older LCX-15MT lowrance with gps and mapping capabilities and I was wondering if anyone else has had experience with this unit in using the newer navionics chips (06 or 07) or only the older "classic" maps. Lowrance was unclear when I emailed them, and thought someone here might have...

    Tilt/Trim gauge

    I had a tach and tilt/trim gauge problem earlier. I was able to fix the tach, but the trim is still not working. Should the T/T gauge read anything when the key is at the ON position or only when motor is running? If anyone has any diagrams of the back of the gauge that would be helpful or...

    Compression for 1990 Evinrude XP 150

    I am buying a 1990 Champion with this Evinrude XP 150 on it. Owner says runs well and no problems. I had it compressioned checked and found that 2 cylinders had 95, 2 more had 90, 1 had a 100, and 1 lower cyl had an 85. One mechanic thinks this is just a tired motor and should be fine. I am not...
