    Force 125 engine starts and runs fine, but cuts out occasionally

    Model# or serial#, year ?? That helps figure out the problem. After 5 posts you can add pics, add pics to help ID the motor.

    1984 Sea King Chrysler

    Video shows the motor running good. The screw on the side is the air screw. It controls the amount of air/fuel mix at idle. Start at 1 1/2 turn out then 1/8th turns after that to adjust. Adjusting it can change the rpm's at idle. IF??? it's running I wouldn't mess too much. New plugs can make a...

    Force 85 1989 flywheel magnet pain

    Pics of the motor, flywheel and ignition(packs/coils)and lower unit. It sounds like your motor is a lot newer than 89. Not sure but the flywheel shouldn't fit an older motor. Magnets if they're coming apart then you'll probably need a new flywheel.

    87 85 hp force

    IF? it won't start at 1 turn out: then it's sucking air somewhere??? Get it started, then spray starting fluid around the intake side of the motor, around the bases of the carbs, around/under the coils and power packs. If the spray makes any difference in the way it runs, then it's sucking air...

    88 Force 50hp to 95 tilt/trim bracket

    https://www.boats.net/catalog/force/outboard/force-trim-tilt-35-75-hp-1984-1999/all The above link has all the T@T units for all the Forces. Look through and find the ones for your units.

    199170 hp force only runs when fuel is sprayed in carb

    That show it's burning the fuel in the bowl and no more gets into the bowl. Check the needle seat and make sure the floats set right(see stickies at top) Sucking air: maybe the bulb, or the quick connect someplace in the line it might be sucking air? Bad seals?

    New motor

    Then that might be a good buy. The Yam uses only Yam shifters and their cable, wiring. Like I said, comp and spark tests.

    1994 Force 120 Thunderbolt ignition Tachometer hook up.

    9710A45, if it looks like this?? Then it's Mercury. CDI puts out a replacement, it looks like the Prestolite stator with a bunch of poles, but it's still a 12 pole. The second one is CDI 12p

    Water pump disaster on 4hp Force

    That's what I thought :( Lots of times the gasket between the carb and intake goes bad or the screws loose.

    Can anyone please recommend a mechanic to work on my 125 force in PHX. Arizona

    What's wrong that you need a mechanic? I'm in Fl. so no help here :(

    New motor

    Location? salt water? Salt water use on a 40+ hours motor?? Myself I wouldn't buy as just about every bolt/screw will break off when turned. First thing do a compression test, then a spark test. Check gear oil for water. If it's new oil? then he might have changed it because of water. Oh yea...

    1991 Force 90hp starting problem

    The pump is from a newer model, they switched to Mercury in the early 90's. Maybe someone with an older model can post a few pics showing the old pump and the hoses to the pump. That hole with nothing hooked to it could be the problem with the backfiring??

    1991 Force 90hp starting problem

    The POP is a backfire, could be sucking air somewhere??? Most times the port covers gaskets get blown out when it backfires, Spray starting fluid around the intake side (under the bottom carb and under the packs/coils and if this makes a difference in the way it runs> then it's sucking air...
