    Water pump

    Pumps are not self priming and the water level needs to be well above the pump. 6” to 8 “

    What type of gas tank for '79 Johnson 35hp?

    I would take a good metal tank over the new plastic tanks any day. The older medal tanks in my area go for big bucks. Usually around $150 but they are so nice and were made very well.

    Pet surgery cost😮

    The things we do for our pets. They are family after all. I dropped 6k on one for a single surgery to remove some cancer and she only made it for another year. I sore I would never do it again. As of yesterday I have 7k into my currant pup in the last 2 years alone. 😂

    Fuel filter

    I was out boating solo when I was 10. I put my poor mother though hell looking back. My daughter is a pilot and started flying at 13. I remember very clearly when she took her first solo flight at 14. I was terrified. She had her pilots license before her drivers licenses so now I have...

    Fuel filter

    I had one of those glass filters break on me once some time ago. 40 some odd years now that I’m thinking about it. Anyway I had to redo the hose to get home which was not a big deal but it happened during a storm and I was blown up onto the flats. It was only a 12’ boat so walking off the flats...

    1972 25hp evinrude water over flow issue

    That could very well be the cause. Always use a new head gasket. Once they are compressed they don’t alway seal properly again.

    1972 25hp evinrude water over flow issue

    That’s the water cooled model. 😂 Wet vac it out as it’s running and try to locate the leak. Look around the water jacket and the head. Best

    What do these knobs do?

    This is true but with that nut only catching a couple threads I would agree it’s in the sketchy category 😂

    Have you ever seen this?

    I’m still leaning towards intermittent spark and that’s what I would be looking for to either rule out or confirm but that’s just me. Running in gear in a barrel will not give you any useful results as your going to get cavitation. The carb sucking in exhaust gases doesn’t help either which is...

    Evinrude 30 hp compression question

    I would try another gauge just to be sure. Most auto parts will loan them out. And as you now know it would make no difference with the lower removed.

    My son only has one arm. He used to dress up for Halloween wearing a bloody shirt and carrying a surf board with a big bite taken out of it.

    1994 112 johnson special, blown cylinder? What now?

    That looks pretty deep. As said it’s best to pull the head and get a real good look at this before doing anything.

    200 HP 4 stroke susuki

    It’s to new for me to know anything about it but I have heard about these flushing ports. I would be more comfortable with flushing from the lower. I rarely use muffs I have a big trash can with a ball valve mounted in the bottom to easily drain it. I can run as long as I want with no worries...

    Johnson 4HP questions

    Correct. It has a displacement hull or could even be considered semi displacement at best. They are intended to carry more weight and be a bit more stable going to and from land and your big boat. That type of hull has very little lift so getting it on a place is not easy.
