Hello Guys. I'm looking at an 07 or 09, the guy hasn't let me know for sure which, DF50 Suzuki. The pics look good but I haven't checked it out yet. He said he bought it recently but doesn't have enough power for his boat. I need to know what I need to check other than trying it out. I've never...
Hello Guys. I have a 1996 48hp Johnson which came with a, what I call, help cylinder. It went bad so I removed it. I'd like to put a Tilt/Trim unit on it. I have access to a unit off of a 1995 110hp Johnson. Will this fit or can I make it fit?
Thanks in advance for any information.
Hello Guys. I looked at a 1987 85hp evinrude having the selectric shift. I saw one last year. I thought the selectric shift went out in the early 70s.?? The title on the '87 85hp stated it was indeed a 1985. I didn't take the time to check the numbers. Does any one have some information? Also, I...
Hello guys. I just bought a great running 1988 28hp evinrude. I heard it run and shift before I bought it. I put it on my boat and decided to make sure it started before I put in the water. I noticed that there is black oil running down the side of the foot which, I see coming out of the vent...
Hello again Guys. I have a chance at a good buy. The outboard is a 1994 115hp Evinrude. The guy tells me it idles good and goes in gear good when running with the muffs. When he takes it out on the water, it dies when put in forward. He had the carbs rebuilt and it didn't help. I researched the...
Hello guys. I need some advice on a 1987 75hp Evinrude. I have a chance at a good buy with this motor on it (maybe). The guy ran the motor for about 5 minutes for me and it sounded good ran good but, there wasn't any water coming out of the 2 holes on the back nor through the prop. He had the...
Hello guys. I'm trying to replace the seals in the lower unit of my 1970 20hp Johnson. There are a couple of seals and O-rings I can't seem to get to. For one, is the seal in the gear case head. What does it take to get the old one out? My manual only states "if you replace the seals, grease...
Hello Guys. I picked up a '70 20hp johnson at a good deal. The guy sold it for parts only. He robbed a few parts for another he had. He did say it would run though. I need access to a parts diagram of the whole motor so I can see what all is missing. I've searched online and can't seem to find...
Hello Guys.
I have a chance at a good buy on an outboard which doesn't have a title, from Georgia. Does anyone out there have an idea of what I would need to do to get a title. The owner tells me all I have to do is send in a complete form with the serial number to SCDNR and I'll get a new title...

Hello Guys. I just bought a 1976 5hp Ted Williams outboard. I want to mount it on my canoe for my grandson. Anyway, I got it to start, but am having trouble starting it each time. The decal behind the choke and the knob on the left has faded and I'm not sure what it says behind the left knob...
Hello again guys. I might have access to a tilt/trim unit from a '79 70hp johnson. I was wondering if it will fit my '72 65hp. Also, my hood seal is braking off. Where can I get one?
Thanks,

Hello guys. I did something STUPID today. I bought a running '72 65hp johnson. I mounted it on my project and got in a hurry and hookedup the battery wrong. I didn't notice right away because it turned over by the switch. Then I hooked up the fuel and turned on the water, then it wouldn't do...
