I have a 1991 200 HP Black Max. Have an issue where the bottom cylinder on the port side keeps fouling out. If I pull the plug and clean it off, it runs perfect and tachs out great for about 10 minutes and then the plug fouls and won't go over 4000 RPM's. compression is perfect across the board...
Was running her today when at around 3000 RPM's the motor just cut out while underway and would not restart. Checked the primer ball and that was hard. I did not have a chance to pull the plugs yet. She was running great until this happened. Anyone have any suggestions????
Hoping some of the experts can chime in here. Motor runds perfect, stays cool at low speeds however when I throttle up past say 2000 RPM's the engine overheats quickly. I can bring it back down to 1500 RPM's and she will cool back down. I have new thermostats as well as a new water pump in the...
I have an 89 200 black max that I am trying to get the rest of the year out of. Motor runs exceptionally well for it's age and has been well cared for. I noticed when running between 1800-3000 RPM's the temperature gauge goes way up and the alarm goes off. I have to slow it down and or throttle...
Hoping the experts can chime in here. I have an 84 175Evinrude that I am going to swap out however it has a 20 inch shaft. I am looking to repower but the problem I am running in to is that eery motor I come across between a 150-200 is a 25 inch shaft. Can I use a 25 inch? I don't want to get...
I currently have an 84 200 Horse evinrude. I have decided to repower with a new/er Evinrude or Johnson. My current motor is a 20 inch shaft. Can I put a 25 inch on this boat without an adverse effect? I would think I can no problem but want the experts take on this.
I recently have had some problems with my motor running rough. I pulled the carbs and cleaned them, relpaced the wires and plugs. Just took it out today since doing the work and it ran 100%. My father and I got back to the dock and tied her up. When I turned the key switch to shut off the...
Hi All, the motor was running well and would start right up until I put it in gear, it would die. I decided to pull the carbs off and clean them out. I soaked them in cleaner and used a compressor, not real difficult. I put the carbs back on and now the motor will not start at all. I pulled the...
Hi guys, I am really hoping you can help me here I recently took my carbs off and had them cleaned. I soaked them in cleaner and used a compressor to blow them out. I reinstalled them on Sunday and the motor won't start now at all. I pulled the plugs and all were fouled and soaking wet with gas...
I was wondering if anyone could add some insight as to the removal and cleaning of the carbs. I have three carbs and I am going to attempt to remove and clean. I am going to buy three carb kits, some cleaner and a can of compressed air. Is there any trick to this? I am pretty mechanically...
A local marina was having a clearance sale and I came across what I believe to be either a 175 or 200 Evinrude. All the serial numbers are missing. The only numbers I did locate are under the hood. The numbers I found were 324899-1. Could someone help identify the year? I can pick this motor up...
I have a 175 that is stalling when I put it under a load. It runs excellent in neutral and when I run it in the dock. As soon as I put it in gear it shuts off. Suggestions?
I just recently purchased a 20' aquasport. The main tank is registering as full however I am uncertain whether there is the adequate amount of oil mixed in the tank or any at all. I purchased the boat from a widow who's husband had passed away in January and she had no idea about the history...
