    Why forward when impeller changing

    Mariner 60 1995 Why does the manual say to put the engine in forward when removing the lower end? The gear shift is rotating spline shaft and I fail to see the advantage of putting it in forward. On my 9.9 it has the same instruction, but I can see the advantage of that one. It gives better...

    Mariner lower end replacement

    I removed the lower end for water pump replacement on my 1995 Mariner 60 HP. No problems there and I think replacement should be OK. I just need to know do I use any type of locktite on the treads when replacing the bolts? It appears there might have been some on the bolts when I removed them.

    How often should the oil be changed? I check it every year and it looks like new. No water or milky colour. I have a bunch of bottles of Type C gear oil. Can I use that in a Mariner?

    water pump impellar or kit

    I want to change the impellar in both my 1995 9.9 and my 60 mariners. Do I order impellars only or is there a kit with some other parts that I should order? Or should I take it apart and then see if I need other stuff before ordering?

    1995 mariner 9.9 running rough

    1995 Mariner long shaft used a kicker/trolling motor. Starts perfect everytime. One or two pulls does it. Runs very smooth on slowest idle speeds. When revved up to full trottle seems like it is only running on one cylinder. When revved up slighty it runs OK then sputters then goes again. The...

    why steer on right for boats

    Something made me think of this on the weekend. Why do boats have the steering on the right? I know some have center consoles but never left side steering like a vehicle. Do boats in UK have sterring on the left, opposite of us like cars?

    9.9 mariner carb part

    I was preparing my 9.9 for winter storage and I took what I thought was the drain plug from the carb of my 9.9 mariner. Surprise it was not the drain. It was something to do with the choke. There is a red button on top that gets pushed by the choke. I lost the little steel ball. I still have the...
