GOOD NEWS. . . . The PICTURE UPLOAD FUNCTION IS WORKING !!! The tech folks at the parent company have been able to remedy the issue. You can upload pictures once again. Thank you for your patience.
When did they go with stainless bolts?
I've not seen them?
If it started at all I'd say the gasket should be ok???
You do a compression test?
Did it backfire or cough while starting? could be a blown port cover
gasket or 2.
1 backfire can blow the gaskets and hard starting and poor running...
Your not answering all the questions??
(Does the motor continue to rev up after you get to 18mph?
Check / watch the linkage as you have someone push the throttle forward(turn prop as you push throttle, otherwise the linkage binds).
Watch the timer base as you throttle up.) Linkage broken?
How...
More info?
Does the motor continue to rev up after you get to 18mph?
You have Trim@Tilt ?
How big a load are you carrying?
Check / watch the linkage as you have someone push the throttle forward(turn prop as you push throttle, otherwise the linkage binds).
Watch the timer base as you throttle up.
Check for spark??? You try starting fluid?
Clean the plugs or new plugs?
These small motors can get flooded and very hard to start since there's no electric starter.
Every time you pull the cord your adding gas/oil into a cylinder that has a lot of that already in there.
Now that you know the possible year is there any marking ANYWHERE on the motor giving the model or serial#??
On the very
Need a side pic of the lower unit and then the coils and if there's a pack or voltage reg?
If it's not leaking oil, Not sure I'd do anything, same with the pump, the important parts are the impeller, the impellers cup and wear plate, again
not sure I'd do anything??
JB Weld or sillycone.
IF???? there's no gap??? then you missed a nut somewhere???
I'm guessing the middle of the drive a deep hole with a nut way up inside????
Take a pic(might need 2-3 of the bottom side of the cavitation plate showing the screw holes with the fin removed.
Your control/shifter is called :
Remote Control-4000 Side Mount(Power Trim)(if it has power trim)
The difference would be the non power tilt wouldn't have a T@T switch.
The safety switch is :

This post is a year old and the original poster doesn't seem to be on here very much??
You need to start your own thread.
The change over: your best bet is try to find a 9.9/15 with points and use the parts from there.
I imagine that most hard parts(timer base, plug wires, flywheel etc., your...
I see the pics of the motor. That's NOT a 94 more like a 96-99 with the Mercury lower unit.
If there's no screw under the trim fin then there are 5 nuts holding the drive on .
Look up inside?
If it drops any? then don't come down. The splines might be twisted and holding the drive in place.
Is the idle tube loose? No? then I wouldn't worry about it.
The pic shows foam floats, they don't usually go bad unless
someone has hit them with something that melts the foam.
The position of the float when the carb is upside down should be level
with the body of the carb.
The drop (float)...
14 just might be a record??
The exhaust cover wit all the 1/4-20 screws is were I break the most.
That's why I NEVER remove the cover unless it's a complete rebuild.
The heat and the cool down and then heat again tends to eat away
the edges of the aluminum and then the gaskets don't want to...
Top carb.Start at 1 1/2 turn out and adjust from there.
If it doesn't idle maybe anther 1/2 turn out?
The adjustment, motor warm, in the water and in gear.
Turn the screw 1/8th turn in and wait 10 seconds, continue until the motor bucks coughs or stalls then out 1/2 turn.
Then repeat on the...
Yours does have a relief screw, on the bottom white screw.
WD-40 or any penetrating spray, spray liberally.
Turn to the left.
I see a BIG problem, your boats growing black hair :)
