    Brand new 9.9hp mercury 4 stroke won't start

    I did everything it said in the manual and it just won't turn over. It has a blinking red light when pulling the pull cord, in the manual it says it's for low oil pressure. I over filled the oil a bit when I put it in but I sucked out the excess. I hope someone can help.

    1996 Evinrude 9.9hp 2stoke issue

    I use this as a kicker motor on my boat. I was trolling one day and the motor started chugging and running rough and eventually died after about 30min of fishing. I tried restarting with no luck. I have checked the spark plugs and wires, gas, and oil everything is OK. Still won't start. Any ideas?

    Grinding noise when turning Minnkota

    I have a Minn Kota 80pd/ap trolling motor that makes a grinding noise when turning. It sounds like it's coming from the drive housing. Could it be the motor-drive or do I need to replace the whole drive housing? Any ideas would be appreciated!
