    Sea Nymph Transom Replacement

    I've got a 1992 Sea Nymph SS 175 Fish and Ski that I plan on replacing the transom on in the coming weeks. Once I've got the motors yanked I am pretty confident in doing the work required. Just curious if anyone has done a replacement on this model or another Sea Nymph and if they ran into any...

    Nissan 8 HP Kicker Prop Questions

    I am currently using a 2009 Nissan 8 hp 4 stroke motor for a kicker motor on my boat. I am running the factory 8.5" x 8P 3 blade prop. Overall I am pretty happy with the prop. But, I am curious as to what effects the high thrust 4 blades would have on the performance of the motor (something...

    OMC Trim Swtich??

    I need help diagnosing a problem on my 1995 Evinrude 115. The trim switch on the shift/thottle controls only works in the down position. However, the trim switch on the motor works both up and down. Could this still be a relay problem, I don't know if the two switches work on different relays...

    1995 115 HP Evinrude Prop Help

    I'm currently running a 1995 115 HP Evinrude on a 17.5' Sea Nymph aluminum fishing boat. Current prop is a 13 x 19 pitch Stilletto SS prop. Max RPM that I am getting is 4800 with a speed of about 37.5 MPH. I believe I've read that the motor should be around the 5500 range. Altitude is...

    Carburator Adjustments- 73 Johnson 9.5

    Guys, I am looking to do some carb adjustments on my 73 Johnson 9.5. I use the motor mainly as a kicker motor for trolling. It seems throughout the RPM range I am rich. I've checked the plugs at WOT and am a bit rich there as well, but not near what I am at lower RPM's. I know these aren't...

    1995 115 Evinrude Rectifier Replacement?

    Rectifier needs replaced on my 199 115 Evinrude. After looking the motor over, it looks like the flywheel must be pulled to replace it. Is this correct? I usually do my repair owrk myself, but if the flywheel needs to come off I think I'll leave it to a shop with the propoer puller.

    Evinrude 9.5 Pin Drive Props- 4 blade or high pitch available?

    I'm looking for a four blade or high pitch prop for an Evinrude 9.5 HP pin drive prop. I'm using the motor as a kicker and the 8 1/8" x 8 isn't quite enough thrust at the speeds I want to run. Are there any commercially available props that would fit my application? Thanks

    115 Evinrude Tach Dropping Out?

    Have an issue with my 1995 Evinrude 115 tach. When I start the motor, the tach shows properly. It also works when revving the engine with the idle enhancement lever. But when I click it in gear and throttle up, it works for a moment then dies out. I have read a few threads and understand...

    Hi there- I am looking for some prop suggestions on my 1995 115 Evinrude. The hull is a 1992 17.5' Sea Nymph Deep Vee fishing boat. I am unsure of my current prop- I believe it is a 17" pitch 3 blade SS. Right now @ 3000', I am getting 37-38 mph w/3 people, a full tank of fuel, kicker, full...

    Kicker Prop Recommendations

    I'm using my early 70's Evinrude 9.5 for a kicker on my walleye boat. I believe I currently am running a 7 1/4" prop (pin drive, not thru hub exhaust). I would like to find a prop that will drive the boat at a good trolling speed (2.5 mph) without excessive engine RPM. My current prop makes...

    Warning horn beeping inconsistantly??

    My boat is equipped with OMC controls along with a 1995 115 Evinrude. The controls could be of a later year (1992, year of the boat). The boat was recently tuned up and the warning horn was found to be working OK. I have had a inconsistent beep from the horn here and there for quite awhile...

    1995 Evirude 115- Oil flooding carbs

    One of my friends has a 1995 Evinrude 115 V-4. The motor has a problem each time we take it out of storage from the spring. It seems that the oil is reaching the carbs much before the gas is, thus flooding the carbs with oil. The past three years the motor has done this. I have to take out...

    1995 115 Evinrude Shift Shaft Disconnect?????

    We are removing the lower unit to inspect the water pump impeller on this motor. All bolts are loose, but the shift shaft linkage is still connected. I've read through a few older threads and have a decent idea of what is to happen. Having it in reverse gear helps, from what I have seen. I...

    1995 115 HP Evinrude Problems (Updated with NEW problems)

    One of my friends has a 17' Sea Nymph w/ a 1995 115 HP Evinrude. Each spring since the boat was purchased, we've had problems with it. The oil and fuel are mixed in a pump, and when you hit the primer bulb it pumps both fuel and oil. The problem is that the gas siphons out of the hose just far...
