    25 HP Skipping and hard to start when warrmed up????

    I have a 96 25 Hp. It cranks fine and will run for a good while. Once it gets warm and it is turned off it is hard to crank and it sputters or skips. I will let it cool off or just back off the throttle and idle along for a while and it will stop after 10 min or so most of the time. Other...

    84 Evinrude 35 piston head replacement(HELP)

    My boat seemed to foul out a couple plugs yesterday. Long aggravating story short. I looked through the spark plug hole and I can see a hole in the piston head. Is this a fairly simple item to replace, or does everything in the motor have to come off? Thanks :confused:

    25 HP Johonson 96-97 won't run without choke

    My motor will crank and run as long as I keep the key pushed in (choke on), cleaned the jets, that didn't seem to help. It will run for a few seconds after the choke is turned off, and if I push the choke on it will pick back up. Any suggestions on what to check?? Thanks:confused:
