Looking for the above cable for my 97 Sprint 262 boat. Have been told it’s been discontinued. Any recommendations for a replacement? It’s froze up. Any suggestions appreciated!
Have had hard starting issues for some time. When it would start, it would run and start ok the rest of the day. Finally noticed the enricher valve had a crack. Replaced it and it was still hard to start, but did start a little easier. Got it running on the muffs and sprayed 1/2 can Seafoam...
Need to replace ignition switch. Also control box won't go into reverse or forward. Lower unit will shift fine disconnected.Any tips or clues how to get it out of control box? Have a post in the controls section, but seems no one reads those.
I suspect my ignition switch is bad and need to check it. Motor won't start, has no spark but will turn over fine. Can't find any reason for no spark and suspect the ignition switch since the no shift thing happened at the same time. And the switch had gotten touchy, It would kill the motor if...
I purchase a boat this past summer. It had a kill switch lanyard in one of the compartments and when we took the test drive I asked the seller about whether the kill switch was required to start. He said it wasn't needed on his boat when he bought it so he never messed with using it. I would...
Just bought a boat with this motor on it. Is it a looper or crossflow? How to tell difference? Previous owner mixed gas, no VRO. Did it have it? Glad it doesn't. Anything I should be particularly aware of from this motor? Seems to idle good and runs good on the test drive we took today. Any help...
Motor runs and idles fine. Noticed it leaking gas/oil from the side of the motor from around the shifter area. Can't see where it is coming from, but drips from a "fitting" that holds the shift lever on. Anyone have any idea where it may be coming from? It looks like it drips from there and runs...
My QD16 motor runs very well for its age. I checked the gap on the points the other day and they were a little close when I checked them with a feeler gauge, so I adjusted them to .020 and cleaned them up a little. (They looked fine) I took it out yesterday, started on two pulls after setting...
I have rebuilt the carbs, replaced the fuel lines, fuel pump, replaced the impellar, resealed the lower unit and new gas tank with new filter and bulb. I mixed the gas 24:1 for about 4 gallons since it had sat unused for at least 15 years and wanted to make sure it got some extra oil in it. Took...
Under the base plate of the water pump there is a metal housing that holds the drive shaft seal. Under it is a gasket. How is the best way to remove that housing? Any tricks of the trade? The only way I can see is to pry it out, but I don't like doing that it might mess up the lower unit.
I wanted to take a minute and report back on the winter project. Ezeke and Samo Ott might remember the issues I had replacing the seals (I guess not a rebuild) on my lower unit this winter. I have taken the motor out several times this spring and summer and finally got around to draining the...
Got a 9422R that will start, but won't idle without the choke being pulled out. I was going to rebuild the carb (still going to) and rebuild the fuel pump. The parts house tells me there is no fuel pump kit available, but the fuel pump is for 96.00. What is in a fuel pump kit? If I take it apart...
