    200 HP 4 stroke susuki

    Hi guys, My friend called today trying to clear out his motor that he never flushed at the end of the season. (Salt area) I told him to run it until the salt away is throughout and then shut it down and walk away for a week. He asked me how often I should replace the impeller and I told him...

    Johnson 4HP questions

    78 Johnson 115 Overcharging??

    Slippage... Spun hub, slipping. Rpm's are to high. Wrong prop or failed hub are some of the things that caused that. Try boat loaded up....(Humans, food, beer, fishing equipment, hot woman with not much clothing on.....throttle to the floor, trimmed up. With this example you should not go...

    What have you done to the tapered piece on the flywheel that's matching the tapered piece on the crankshaft? Did you lube it, or did you clean it, or did you lap it with some lapping compound?

    1972 evinrude 25hp sparkplugs

    Agreed, Use the 4's and cut back on the 2 stroke oil. Oil is WAY better now, so leaning it back a bit for anyone who calls himself an "old man". I always clean the plugs. Carb spray, wire brush, compressed air and last but not least, my plumbing torch. They will last until there's no plug...

    Have you ever seen this?

    Yes....I've seen many people lube the flywheel taper when all they need to do is clean it. If you've done that, clean and use lapping compound. Flywheels are tough, but they have their limits.

    94 four winns fling which engine

    Great information really.....pretty sure what he means is put the least amount of money into it because there's much better stuff out there. Rebuild it yourself or let some kid fix it for free and make a YouTube video out of it.

    Well if you took any engine and pop it in and out of gear, do you think that can't hurt the electrical? We know very little about this outboard.

    Have you ever seen this?

    Second thing is is tomorrow's mother's Day so I think maybe it just lay off. But I believe the reason why it's hopping in at a gear is because you don't have a shift cable on your shift handle. By keeping the handle in the right position it very may possibly just stay in gear, but what the hell...

    First off, learn how to make a YouTube video out of your phone video. I'm tired of having to download all these things just to see it running. Very easy and fun to do you do a free account and make a video and there's some other things to learn, and then send the link.
