    Johnson 35 with intermittent stream before thermostat opens

    Does it do this on the water or just on muffs/barrel?

    Starter mounting bracket stud in front mount broken out casting

    No. Rich/lean idle screw should be set correctly... it does not control the idle at least as far as finial rpm. The idle is set with what we call a link and sync so look that up on line and study the videos.

    96 Evinrude 50 Cutting Out

    I stopped using the gray hose quite a while ago but they last more than a year. When it first came out I was told it was ethanol resistant. I do not believe that to be true. The clear coating or intertube is what seems to fail causing plugging of the internal fuel passages. The black rubber...

    1996 Evinrude 15HP Stuttering/Surging approaching & at WOT

    Not sure you completely cleaned the carb correctly but try this. In a barrel, run the motor at night and look for some flashing off of the coils or coil wires. Seems like it's arcing.

    Stalling at Idle and Idle Speed

    Check your pulse fitting, if it's black replace it with a new blue one. According to some on here, the fuel pump diaphragm can be replaced inexpensively. Be careful taking the vro apart....small plastic pieces can break.

    Stalling at Idle and Idle Speed

    Post 11 does not say fuel pump was changed out. If pumping the primer ball cures the problem, then that is the standard repair. Pump diaphragm can tear at any time. Every fuel tank that I have ever been in has a pickup screen and when I run spin on fuel filters I have removed the screens before...

    Evinrude 25hp outboard wants to die when I give it gas

    I forgot to send the picture. Comes out with a standard small screwdriver.

    Stalling at Idle and Idle Speed

    Read what? Read that you recommended changing the primer bulb? Fuel pump is not a primer bulb. Maybe I'm not following you correctly.

    Stalling at Idle and Idle Speed

    Racerone is on to this, most likely fuel pump but follow his steps. Not sure why others are not giving this advice. If I pumped the primer bulb the motor would steady out This tells the story.

    Evinrude 25hp outboard wants to die when I give it gas

    Again though, to save time....turn in idle circuit screw and count the turns until "lightly seated" write that down. Remove screw. Remove upper plug, remove float bowl nut that has the primer nipple on it. Blow out the original 1st screw that you removed and then flood it with fuel before...

    Evinrude 25hp outboard wants to die when I give it gas

    The trick to removing the carb without removing the starter is to use a cold chisel to remove the starboard carb nut. Make sure to use your cold chisel marks to install the nut correctly. Now I've done it both ways but this saves you time. I mainly want people to do it "the long method" on here...

    2013 Etec Steering Question

    Odds are, the above statement has not happened. When they mounted the motor there is no reason they put a new cable on if it was working correctly. One nut to remove will explain the whole story. Problem could also be at the helm.

    Starter mounting bracket stud in front mount broken out casting

    2 things, in a similar situation my buddy dripped some aluminum in there with his tig welder and tapped it out for me and I've had that same stud fall out before and the starter still performed well. Pretty sure you might have more than one thing going on. JB weld is not going to work.

    Starter mounting bracket stud in front mount broken out casting

    Not completely understanding you but from what you said only two things can happen. They broke the stud in the intake area (drill out the stud) or that starter bracket is messed up. (Have it welded) I'm I missing something? You can't "glue" any of that stuff.

    1996 Evinrude 15HP Stuttering/Surging approaching & at WOT

    Well, we can walk you through that too if needed. Sometimes I remove the float bowl drain screw, and the idle circuit screw and blow a little bit of carb clean in the idle hole. Then I pump a bunch of gas through the bowl and let it drain for bit. A couple of jiggers or so. If you have just a...

    1996 Evinrude 15HP Stuttering/Surging approaching & at WOT

    My guess, fuel related. Sucked up some crap. Could be electrical though....so you need to count out one first. Id pull or flush the carb. Did you check to see if it was staying cool? Just because it's peeing doesn't mean it's cooling.

    96 johnson 150

    Your looking for a minimum of around 100 but hopefully more around 120. Up to 130 or 140 would be fantastic. Mainly you want them within 10% of each other.

    Evinrude 25hp outboard wants to die when I give it gas

    Sorry, but the filters help....and they help a lot. On my bigger motors I run 2. In fact, the more I think of it, you can't have enough filters. That screen does a poor job. Just saying.

    Do what you must do. Current will be the same if done correctly.
