    1984 force 125 spark issue

    Is the stator new? CDI stators can read lower than OEM. Borrow/buy another meter and see if that makes a difference? Lots of times, if theres any type reading it can be good

    Starter Bendix stuck

    I had a bunch of Force outboards, I NEVER bought a new starter in 30 years. Always rebuilt them. How ever I did buy the expensive rebuild kits from Mercury.

    1998 Force 120 Stalls out in Low Gear

    Mercury uses a 5/16" hose and older Force used 1/4" If your going to pull the pickup?? Be very CAREFUL as those fittings aren't meant to come out easily and can be damaged. The best way to check the pickup is to empty the tank and then remove the sending unit and then you can see inside the...

    1990 Force 120HP trim and tilt not keeping motor up no leaks

    If it only does it when you prime the system?? Not sure I'd worry too much about it. When you squeeze the ball your putting the system under a lot of pressure. The fuel pump is a real low pressure system 2-4# (if that?). Make sure the screw/screws holding the bowl on are tight.

    Chrysler 55 one cylinder occasionally fires

    The following is my opinion: Seafoam is a waste of $$$ Get a can of spray cleaner and use it to clean the carb. I bought a can of SF tried to use it to clean the carbon from the piston I had setting around. DID NOTHING!!

    1990 Force 120HP trim and tilt not keeping motor up no leaks

    The "robber" seal is for a different motor. :) The kit covers a bunch of motors, it might cover 20-50 different ones. That rubber seal fits a Mercury motor.

    1998 Force 120 Stalls out in Low Gear

    Temp/overheat-gauges or alarms? The thing about a gauge is you don't watch them all the time, if you do? Myself, I'd get seasick. Fix is a louder horn, car or motorcycle horn and put where you can see/hear them. A pressure gauge just tells you it's pumping but won't say anything if it quits...

    Chrysler 55 one cylinder occasionally fires

    Jimmbo, I agree completely, I use a torque wrench to tighten lug nuts. Just about everytime I do a brake job I have to use a hot wrench to loosen the lugs that were installed by an impact wrench. No way would the people get them off with just a 4 way.

    Get an impact wrench. Then you won't need to hold the flywheel.

    1997 Force 90hp Stiff steering

    If someone's gone through all that trouble to fix it before? Not so sure it's going to FIX?? Maybe find another motor and change the powerhead? or get a different motor all together?? You said: "The bottom of king pin is rotted as well and retaining ring is sitting on lower unit. Also the lower...
