    Oil loss when filling the lower transmission unit

    I must have noticed this before, but it bothered me this time. I opened the lower, drain, on the lower transmission with the top plug in place. some oil started leaking out. I quickly screwed in my pump hose and the leak stopped. I then removed the top plug and pumped oil in until it started...

    Adjusting Bunk Boards

    I have a 16' aluminum boat equipped like a bass boat, live well, flat plywood floor and raised front deck. It has a 9.9 hp outboard. I'd guess the total weight at less than 500 pounds... I really don't know the weight. My problem, may be old age, is it is getting harder to push the boat off...

    Stabalizer and ethanol in gas in 9.9 HP Evinrude

    I did a hitch-hike with this on another thread, but decided while here on the forum I'd ask again. I have read, maybe here, that ethanol in gasoline, 10% assumed here in NJ, can damage (or shorten the life of) small 2 cycle outboard engines. Further, a neighbor told me yesterday that adding...

    Trailer bunk improvements

    I have a light 16' aluminum boat which I have been loading and unloading for years using the carpeted bunk boards and keel rollers. I am thinking about installing either the wheel type bunk attachments (usually 4 or 5 sets of rollers on each side), or on just installing the slippery plastic...

    Need a DVA meter, make an adapter for $5

    I needed a DVA meter to trouble shoot a "no spark" problem on my 9.9 HP 1997 Evinrude. I made several post on this problem in the past week as I was seeking some specifications to measure - got some pointers and went to my local library and checked out a Johnson/Evinrude Service Manural. The...

    Technology revisited, the ignition energy w/o Battery

    I saw such a great response to the post on "technology" so I decided to include that in my title, it fits. I have a 1997 9.9 hp, as you know no battery. I am having a no spark problem. As this engine has an electronic ignition, it has a "Power Pack", there is, I assume, no magneto high...

    Evinrude 9.9 HP Outboard Ignition Problem

    I have a 1996 Evinrude 9.9 HP 2 cycle, 2 cylinder outboard which has a weak or no spark at the spark plugs. From what I can see on the engine and some parts lists it appears it has a "coil" in addition to the magneto spark energy from the flywheel (assumption, I have not pulled the...
