    1987 40hp evinrude vro (oil deleted) carb issue?

    Try pumping the primer ball when it starts to bog out....if it returns to normal then your guess is correct.

    1987 40hp evinrude vro (oil deleted) carb issue?

    Sounds good really. Sneeze but your idle is low I believe.....set the idle in the boat running. After a zip around the lake, she probably will clear up because that's how they were designed. I forgot to send this...it was made several days ago.

    Fuel Tank F Up

    I use 3/8 hose ...did you install a spin on filter? What type of hose did you use? Not the gray crap I hope. Did you purge and out first?

    Put an unlit propane torch next to the carb shaft and see if it revs up.

    Gear shaft not engaging neutral (E8RCRM / Evinrude 8 HP 1984)

    Sounds to me like you slightly pulled the shift shaft out....could this have happened? If so we can tell you how to put it back.

    1991 60hp VRO Evinrude - No Spark

    Hence the reason I always suggest unplugging the box from the motor. Best way to send videos is YouTube. Extremely easy to make and send the link.

    1996 Johnson 50 Not starting

    Yes, all those things matter....so does starting it. I met gobs of people that start them wrong. Find a friend that has more knowledge of your outboard or watching YouTube videos. If you have a friend have him come over you guys can have a beer talk about what's correct.

    Any saving the engine? I’m devastated

    New in a can does not exist. Little bit of tranny fluid or pearl oil. Run it until it smokes real bad and shut her off. Let it sit a day and fire it up and let it rip, stuff will shoot everywhere!

    I think I killed my TE60TLENE

    Well I'm from Seattle so we're both NW people. Money wise, your best to just buy a used motor because we are flooded here. But call seaway marine just north of me....their one of the biggest parts guys in the world I think, I know the family. Number is up above the posts. Last option is a good...

    40hp Dead Top Cylinder

    You could pull the head, get valuable information, resurface it and install it in less than 3 hours. With two strokes sometimes it's more than compression, spark and fuel. Your either over looking something or it's something stupid like coils receiving the wrong info....
