    2001 Mercury XR6 controls.

    I have a Welcraft CC with a bad Binacle shift control. Will the Gen ii with Gen ii cables fit the 2001 XR6 motor fitted to the boat? Thanks for any responses Jim.

    1997 60* Evin 90HP OIS. Past 2200 fades and dies under load.

    Carbs are cleaned and rebuilt. Sparks are good. Have tested in the pond using a clean tank and a 3/8 hose and bulb shoved into the tank fill hole to eliminate any restrictions. Starts and idles good but wont go much past 2200 before dropping off. Tried squeezing the bulb but the bulb remained...

    Honda BF40A Bayl 1002730

    Fuel leaking from around Welch plugs on two of the carbs. Honda says we dont use plugs on the carbs. They sure look like welch plugs to me. They are not shown on the carb parts diagram. Can anyone shed any light on this. Thanks. Jim.

    1997 60* 90HP Evin.

    Just getting into this problem. Some pointers will be helpful. Motor starts up and runs normally. Will not go much beyond 2K RPM on load and then cuts to idle or spits and cuts out. The oil pump has been disconnected by previous owner and now on 50:1. Carbs have been cleaned prior. One cylinder...

    1984 150 Johnson prop.

    Hi Guys. Been out of circulation for about a year fixing up the lake house and building a new pier and floater. Filled in any spare time rebuilding this Johnson. Can anyone recommend a prop pitch. Looks like about 14 inch diameter. Thanks.

    2003 15HP Yamaha 4 Stroke Temperature.

    This motor has very few hours and has been sitting in my shop for a couple of years. Checked oil, very good. Put it in the tub and it fired first time. Minor adjustment to the idle screw to bring it up. Runs very smoothly with strong tell tale. I know very little about this model. Checked head...

    1988 DT65 warning horn.

    Running in the tub. Motor not overheating. Horn comes on normally before cranking but stays on after start up. The water in the tub does not look very oily so I am suspecting oil flow. With a Johnson we can just disconnect the various sensors and check that way but the Suzuki is a different...

    1999 Force 75HP ignition timing.

    I have just rebuilt this motor and did not find the timing marker plate, The Seloc manual shows a photo of it but it does not appear on the parts list. Is it me or is this just another mercury quirk. Would like to check the timing before putting the motor back into service. Any help would be...

    1988 DT65 timing question.

    Can anyone tell me what roll the TPS has in the advance/retard. Disconnected the TPS to get a good idle. Would this cause the motor not to come up under load. Carbs are clean, good comps good sparks new plugs etc. Fuel pump appears to be working, will pump from a jug on the ground. Thanks.

    1999 Force con rod torque spec.

    Thanks again Mercury for the usual confusion. We know that the motor is a 75HP 1999 model from the label on the block. The transom mount has a label with nothing on it. The manual calls for 093699 and later-120 inch lbs. up to serial number 093699-170 inch lbs. They do the same for the cylinder...

    2000 Mercury 20HP Piston orientation?

    Had this motor sleeved after Mercury's info of 30 over boring rebuild failed. Should have known better with Mercasil rubbish. Anyway, I note that the pistons are symmetrical with exception of the ring locators. Should the pistons be positioned with the rings locator slot position taken into...

    1988 DT 65 idle problems.

    Stripped, cleaned and rebuilt carbs with new kits. The carbs were the worst I have ever seen for muck. Took a while and plenty of soaking and my ultra sonic. I did note, and thank you Suzuki, that new welch plugs were not provided, so i was unable to pull them. The motor starts ok and runs on...

    I have no experience with these motor and would be glad of a little help. I dont want to go beating on things and do damage. The only problem I have at the moment is pulling the power head. It looks like the 8 obvious bolts screw into a base plate which also supports the lower cover. I have...
