    Did you try a spark plug jump test or just see that it has spark?

    Fuel system

    When you run the motor does it clear up if you keep pumping the primer ball? What are your compression numbers?

    Fuel system

    Fuel pump diaphragm must have torn or weeped. Must be smoking hard with all the pumping your doing.

    Fuel system

    I agree, reading your statements....did you replace the primer bulb? Also, is the engine not running correctly?

    Are vacuum hose diagrams available?

    I'm going to say it goes to both but it's an educated guess.

    Stalling at Idle and Idle Speed

    Had a 20 ft Boston Whaler Revenge once....former owner let it sit for about 3 or 4 years and wasn't a guy that did much maintenance anyways. Took it out and for several trips it ran fine. Next trip not so much. Mess with the engine for a while than decided to hand pump out about 30 gallons of...

    Stalling at Idle and Idle Speed

    Here's your two choices and I've done both. Figure out the tank dimensions, carefully cut it out, change the tank, re-install the cut piece of deck after sealing all of the edges and have a stainless steel beauty ring made and glue (marine 5200) and screw it down (stainless screws). If not...

    1990 Johnson 15hp only start with carb disengaged

    No. In a barrel that's what they look like. What it wants is to be taken out on a boat.

    1977 Evinrude 25hp

    Hard to follow... but if the area your talking about is where I think it is, it seems one of two things. 1st guess, your not completing the last step of the L&S or your timer plate under the flywheel is all gooped up or has blockage. Is it any of those?

    1977 Evinrude 25hp

    I'm not sure of some of your terms...."cam" are you talking about the roller on the carb linkage? Like Racer says, in neutral it won't allow it. Whenever you mess with it you have to do a link and sync and there is lots of info online on how to do that.

    The black goo typically is your coils failing. Motor look like this?

    Hurricane helene dropped a tree on my boat

    In my area a used 1997 9.9 is worth anywhere from $1000 to $1200 with electric start. All areas will be different though.

    Impeller housing too snug? Making prop and shaft very hard to turn.

    Are you in neutral?

    Stuck Gear

    Again, post model number, there is over 50 models of the 25 in the Evinrude/Johnson 96 line

    Stuck Gear

    While in neutral, yes. I would recheck your connection, keeper in, keeper nuts are properly set. If they check out, once again, did the shaft that was in your gearcase when you pulled it for the impeller replacement, get turned or removed? If so, that's your problem.
