finally got around to working on tach issues. Found plug on rear of tach...............gray to send, purple to ign, black to ground and a blue wire to light. However, there is a post marked " E/I" . with the ign to on I have 12 volts to purple post. Question 1, what is E/I? There is a black wire...
While looking in the forward deck access cover to see if there is a fwd bilge pump (there's not), I noticed what appeared to be a "thin" area in the bottom centerline of the boat. I could see a little light from the outside. Can this be repaired with fiberglass, or is this even a problem? I want...
I am trying to hook up the tachometer on my 1990 Evinrude 115hp and can't figure out which wire to attach. The SELOC wiring diagram is no help. Any ideas? The boat (1988 Bayliner center console) came with a Force motor, which was replaced at sometime with this Evinrude, so any wires on the boat...
I just noticed a small puddle of oil seeping from prop shaft area. I am hoping it is because it turned cold and the boat has not been in use for a while. I plan to start and run it in gear for a few minutes to see if it helps. If not.................can I replace the two prop shaft seals without...
Well finally goy my 1988 Bayliner Trophy 1910 on the lake for some fishing. The engine ran good but took a full 30 seconds to reach full throttle when the throttle was placed in WOT position. Once after stopping for while, it never reached full throttle but ran badly, spitting and popping, but...
I was getting ready to install the bilge pump in my 1988 bayliner center console when I noticed a round piece of equipment mounted to the bottom of the boat, sealed with epoxy and one green wire coming from it, but not hooked up to anything. I have scanned the wiring diagram for this boat to no...
My nephew is trying to find a water pump kit (including housing etc.) for a Chrysler 55 hp outboard. The numbers he gave me are 559HC, s/n 6137 which seems to be a 1971 model. I can find no parts under 1974 on all of the websites I know of. Any help is appreciated.
I recently purchased a 1989 Bayliner center console 18' Trophy and have a couple more questions as the previous owner had very little knowledge of the boat.
1. He said the bilge pump did not work. I see two round access covers on the deck of the boat and wonder if these are the access areas for...
Just purchased a 1989 Bayliner 18' center console. Starts and runs good but........................I didn't see him run the throttle. It has a single shifter/throttle and I was wondering how does the throttle/shifter work? How does the throttle work without putting boat in gear? Am I...
I have acquired an old Johnson 35 hp and I can't find ant ID plate or numbers. I think it is a 1957 based on the SELOC repair manual (which only goes to 1958) and shows a generator. this motor has no generator or a place to mount one, It has a starter and electric choke. I have searched the...
I have a 1965 60 hp V-4 Evinrude (60552) and am having trouble finding parts. You guys have helped with PN for my generator (thanks) but I want to rebuild the water pump and all I can find is the impeller. I need gaskets, seals and o-rings also. Everywhere I have tried stops at 1968...
While tightening nut on wire connection on the generator of my 1965 V-4 (60552) the stud just fell out!!!!! any help is appreciated, either how to repair or where I can find repair kit.
just had the exhaust manifold welded (it had rusted two holes in the bottom where it had apparently sat). I re-installed it and ran it with no issues then stored it for a few months. After I brought it home and ran it again to check it before I hit the lake, I noticed water in the oil. Could it...
