    125 Force Outboard won’t achieve full power

    Like racerone said maybe running on 3 cyl. Spark test each cylinder. Always list compression numbers. Then do the starting fluid test: start motor, spray sf around the intake side, including the 4 port covers and around the carbs, etc. if the spray makes the motor run different then it's sucking...

    Most cases the poppet gets stuck and stops working. Years ago I was told by the Force techs that it can be removed without any adverse affects. They stopped using them around 89/90

    Chrysler lower unit rebuild

    Some seals can be installed using the wheel bearing race tool or a universal joint tool. Like Racerone suggested the socket of the right size. I sometimes use a BIG C-clamp. Just make sure the surfaces is clean and the sealer coats the mating surfaces. The shift rod seal: if the surface isn't...

    Chrysler 75 hp Distributor cap gasket?

    F14020-1 Can be found on Ebay from $7.25 to $30 Ebay # 173114838757 is the cheapest one. But you can run without it. It is a moisture seal and should be used.

    1956 Johnson 30 / Starter won’t turn flywheel completely

    Do a compression test? Dirty inside starter? Does the starter get hot? how about the battery posts and cables? If the bearings are corroded, that can cause hard turning too.

    1995 Force 50 Turns over, doesn’t start

    If your running in a tank? Make sure the water is deep. Needs to be 4 inches over the top of the cavitation plate. FYI If it's a 2 piece lower: then it needs special muffs for running on the hose. Using regular muffs can cause over heating.

    1995 Force 50 Turns over, doesn’t start

    IF???? you have spark, however small it's probably enough. It sounds like the fuel system might be the problem. You have a primer that shoots a small amount of gas into the carb each time the switch is activated, holding the key in only gives 1 little shot of fuel. To test: unhook the hose from...
