    Evinrude 150 steering arm.

    My 1990 150 Rude is very hard to steer, and I was wondering if the cable mechanism is connected to the wrong hole of the steering pivot arm.

    Fuel restriction vacuum switch

    I have a 2002 Evinrude 150 hp carb...my warning horn is sounding. I traced the problem to the fuel restriction vacuum switch. <br />Even at rest with the hose removed the switch is closed. I'm guessing this should be a normally open switch... Any help would be appreciated...thanks
