    johnson 70hp 2 stroke 1995 shut down when warm

    Agreed with above. Has the water pump been serviced since you bought it. That’s always the first step to a new to you motor if it’s age is unknown.

    Engine will not stay running without choking

    Luke 84 You would be better off staring your own post. Talking about 2 different motors on the same post is gets confusing. Thx

    Engine will not stay running without choking

    I once watched a guy spray the outside of the carbs down and explained to me he was doing a carb cleaning because it wasn’t running well.

    1991 20HP Evinrude no acceleration

    Yep that’s what a spun hub looks like. They can be repaired but it’s likely not going to save you a ton of money. Glad you finally got this resolved.

    2000 Johnson 15hp wont pump water

    If you were getting water out of the tell tail while on the hose it’s not likely that’s where the problem lies. The tell tail passages don’t circulate through all the water passages. First check to be sure the pump service was done properly and the key is in place. If you wanted you could drop...

    2000 Johnson 15hp wont pump water

    Agreed if it was missing fins they are properly jammed up somewhere. The hose pressure may have been enough to push water to the pisser.

    If all else fails you could use a transom saver to hold it up.

    Oil leak

    Well said. Far better than my version. The oil question was meant to be separate and I was just curious if maybe extra oil was being used but clearly not. I need to work on using my words.

    Oil leak

    Buy the look of the staining on the paint it could be running a bit rich as well which would make this dripping heavier than normal. Just out of curiosity how much oil do you use per gallon or liter of gas?

    25 horse Evinrude eTec Stops Running

    I don’t know squat about the Etec technology but there has been a lot of chatter on here about the power pack or equivalent over heating. Do a bit more looking around through old post and you will find lot of talk about it on here. Best

    1969 Evinrude 25hp 25903D points issue

    I know I have replaced condensers due to a request and ended up put the old ones back in because the new were no good. It’s definitely worth looking into if you replaced them. I can’t remember if you said you did or not. Bad case of CRS this morning.

    1991 20HP Evinrude no acceleration

    Cotter pin for the nuts is correct. I guess I should be more specific next time

    1991 20HP Evinrude no acceleration

    Sure sounds like a spun hub. I always carry a spare prop thrust washer nut and pin. Just for this reason. You just never know where or when it’s going to happen.

    2-cycle gas

    Agreed with both. Or give it to a neighbor or a lawn service.

    50 hp OMC triple vibration at lower rpm

    Sorry I’m sure what to tell you. I have never personally seen this happen only heard about.

    50 hp OMC triple vibration at lower rpm

    I think he may be saying the cylinder sleeve could have rotated a bit. This would mean the ports are not in perfect alignment.
