Yeah , but how much brute force ,I mean dont beat the crap outa it but maybe give it a few taps ......to start with 😀 who knows , maybe you could see a bit of broken ally on the front of the gearcase pop out and the thing will drop into reverse.
Some peeps like doing stuff like this even if its...
Huh , I didnt see no mention of a hacksaw in post #2.
Anyhow I think that your in the " got nothing to loose dept" now . Try persuading that shift rod to see things your way (whatever you do dont use a hammer 😉😉😀) it might knock the obstruction out of the way .
I like to get to the bottom of the...
Yeah , I spose that the tapers lock the parts together does ,as you say , mean the key is just a locator .I believe some auto makers are not bothering with the key any more .....on cam sprockets, thats a real leap of faith
The ones on mowers were usually ally , but then the flywheels were quite light too with most of the flywheel effect coming from the mass of the blade .
Just looking at the Tohatsu , it has a spindly lightweight looking crankshaft and a solid flywheel and a doorstep of a (steel) key ,makes me...
Ha I was just thinking flywheel key , I was thinking of my iron horse post and that other dude with the mashed lower gear case and remembered I was forever replacing flywheel keys on rotary lawn mowers and wondered if it was an issue for outboards. The one on my Tohatsu is a massive slab or steel.
Yeah thats one thing I see different between motorcycles and outboards . Most of the bikes have a lot less crankcase volume and thusly higher primary compression . And looking at some of them crossflow motors they seem real primitive port wise.
I used to fix race carts with the old...
No , which is why I mentioned it , but surely its implied . If the cyl/ bore wear or damage is such that it causes excess pumping inefficiencies it wouldn't it be in both directions ? especially at low speeds , and when the motor is bogging down they can get pretty slow . :)
A hot comp test . Dunno so much about outboards but 2 stroke motorcycles that are getting a bit tired tend to loose power noticeably once up to temp.
It may be a bit of tiredness combined with excess fuel/oil that causes a bit of puddling , gotta remember that while low comp tested in...
I dont know for sure but some of them wog motors are a copy of the yam .... like look for a 9.9 Sail for instance , also the handle may be used on other similar sized models . Have a look at ebay...
Try removing the pee hose from the engine and poke something in there ( bit of wire ) maybe even start motor and jiggle wire to try and flush it out . Im thinking it may just be the pee hose blocked and you may be able to dislodge the impedementia
We have a lake here , part of the hydro power scheme , and when the lake is real low there are rocks close to the surface waaaaaaay out from the shore . There is a red bouy attached to said rocks which sticks out of the water at low levels . You'd be stunned at how many peeps went over to see...
Absolutely repairable , when you get some heat shrink see if you cant get some with hot melt sealant lining the inside of the heat shrink . We used to use it for underground repairs ( the ole spade thru the phone line trick )
As you heat it up the sealant melts and as the heat shrink shrinks...
Yep , when I 1st got my onda the muffs worked fine , but we are on rain/ tank water here and I have noticed the water flow is slowly dropping off ( we have been here 10 years ) and now the boat wont flush so I spose Im going to have to find the 🤬filter and clean it :)
I say "go for it " this is how you GAIN experience , get some mates to help out ... (ones your wife doesnt like😄 ) , keg of beer , box of pop rivets , What could go wrong :LOL:
Yes , I never said otherwise , but it would seem other brake pad makers supply pads for the Kodiak 225 marine brakes .
They are sold here in NZ and while I can see they offer cast stainless and Dacromet coated calipers for hi corrosion resistance they are not dedicated to marine only...
Napier Deltic
Snow gas engine
What impresses me is that not only did they have the knowledge required to come up with something like this ( try getting one built today ) but they could actually make it . Some of them castings are immense let alone the ability to machine them. 150 odd years...
