    1973 4hp Evinrude

    As tphoyt says the impeller is not self priming. The impeller housing need to be at least 3-4 in under the water line.

    Chrysler 75hp, need direction.

    You can also set the timing with the throttle rod disconnected. Pull the rod off, be careful not braking the plastic connector. Turn the distributor/timing plate CW to full advance and check with the key in ON position by turning the flywheel CW and the top plug grounded when it sparks. Timing...

    Chrysler 75hp, need direction.

    Set idle in gear to 700-800 RPM. Idle out of gear about 1000 RPM. Setting the timing is simple. You do not need to have it running. Pull the plugs, set carbs at WOT if you have the throttle rod connected then distributor is set at WOT too. Turn the key to ON and turn the flywheel in CW...

    Chrysler 75hp, need direction.

    I suppose you have the Motorola Magna Power I ignition system as we have talk about the preamp in the distributor earlier in the thread. Do you have surface gap plugs or regular plugs with a bent electrode? This system should have surface gap plugs. Have you set the timing at 28-30 dgr BTDC at...

    1962 5hp sea king water pump

    Try to get some pics. I think this engine is a OMC (Johnson/Evinrude) engine. The old Johnson/Evinrude smal engines (5-10Hp) you have to pull the power head to drop the LU.

    CD boxes and coils

    I do not think there are no difference in them, but not 100% sure. The black are older the blue newer. I have seen engines mixed with black and blue and both CD boxes and ignition coils. Maybe jerryjerry, topgun, forcepower or other guys with experience in these engines will chime in.

    Yes, correct. It goes on the drive shaft at top of the impeller housing.

    Milky fuel in carb intake force 85hp

    If that seal is leaking you maybe will have exhaust in the engine area. Look like there is not gasket between the adapter plate and mid section. The 75Hp Chrysler that are similar to you engine has a gasket 809825 between the plate and mid section. If that is leaking you will have exhaust in the...

    Milky fuel in carb intake force 85hp

    The seal under exhaust tube (number 1) is N/A. You have to make something of you own. I have used cork gasket material (two or three together) and it has worked out so far. You have to have some gasket material that are thick and can handle high temperature.

    Could this ignition coil cause any damage?

    No, you are measure in the wrong way. But it does not matter if you measure the secondary winding putting the black or red probe to ground or the thin (blue) control wire from the ignition system and the other probe to spark plug boot. You should measure the secondary winding between spark plug...

    Could this ignition coil cause any damage?

    No way the secondary resistance can affect the charging coil. The charging coils circuit is the input of the CD box/switch box and the CD box/switch box output channels circuit is the primery winding, the voltage can not go backwards. The ignition coil and all coils are a step up komponent. It...

    Could this ignition coil cause any damage?

    My experience is that CD ignition system has coils with lower resistance at secondary winding. Chrysler/Force, OMC and Mercury has 500-1200 Ohm for CD ignition coils. All magneto I have worked with Mercury, Chrysler, OMC, Yamaha, Suzuki etc. Have secondary winding resistance at 5 kOhm and higher.

    Could this ignition coil cause any damage?

    What is the value of the secondary winding? If it is in range 5-8 kOhm it fits magneto ignition with points. If it is in range 500-1000 Ohm then it is for CDI ignition.

    Where is the front line on trim tilt hydraulic pump

    Seams like there is no return line for the trim cylinder. Bcrosby, attach a pic of the trim cylinder. How is the return (down movement) for the trim cylinder piston?

    1994 120 force outboard no reverse

    As Jiggz says and follow his instruction. If you have the two piece drive shaft dual exhaust LU, you have to check the setting of the lower shift shaft. The position of it due to the OEM workshop manual you should thread it down (CW) until it bottom out then turn it back four turns.

    Where do you get your parts?

    Franz Marine service, if he not has the part you need it is N/A new. Used engines, Ebay, Outboard parts, iBoats, Master Tech Marine.

    Props

    Maybe as jimmbo says and maybe the spacers between the housing and prop do not fit. There has to be a collar at the prop that goes into the housing if there is a LU with dual exhaust (exhaust goes out in the centrum of prop). I am not sure if the 125Hp had dual exhaust at some models.

    Could this ignition coil cause any damage?

    Does the Evinrude have CD (electronic) ignition? From my experience CD ignition system ignition coils has lower resistance at the secondary side then regular magneto system with points and condenser. Magneto system has about 5-8 kOhm resistance at secondary winding and CD system about 5-1200 Ohm...
