    Low speed, 25hp bucks like mule

    If it were me I would start with rebuilding the carb, check for good clean spark, water pump service and check or replace gear case oil.

    Johnson 115 ocean pro running on one cylinder

    Seems maybe your 4th plug is fouling out. You have spark but how strong is it on that cylinder. You may be passing more fuel than needed in that cylinder as well. Keep digging

    hard to start when warm

    If it runs fine when you get it going it could just be your starting procedure. If you seeing unburned fuel you may be holding the key in to long. Just try starting it by turning the key first and if it doesn’t kick off then push the key in for a second.

    Can you weld a broken tiller arm gear 1983 15hp Evinrude

    I can think of a couple ways to go about this but the welding option would be to drive the pin out and remove the gear. Then bevel the rod ends and weld it back together and drill the pin hole again. Best of luck

    Overcharging Evinrude

    See if you can keep it running by squeezing the bulb on the fuel line. If so then inspect the fuel delivery. Rebuild or replace the fuel pump if needed.

    Intermittent water

    I wish that were the case in my location. It’s not uncommon to find them completely blocked in my neck of the woods and they can be packed so tight you almost have to grind your way through passages to clear them the best you can. To the OP if you want to rule out your pump you could always...

    1990 15 hp Evinrude e15eesr won't pee at idle

    I should have asked sooner! Was this just maintenance? Was it pumping okay before you replaced the pump or did you replace it because it wasn’t pumping correctly?

    1990 15 hp Evinrude e15eesr won't pee at idle

    Might be worth taking another look just Incase something dislodged and clogged the line during assembly. I have also found the lines clogged with Vaseline that was used the lube the impeller. Don’t know if you went that route. Only takes a second to fish the pee hose with a small wire just to be...

    new to me 1970 Johnson 25hp tiller short shaft. locked up

    Me too Picked up a 28 Johnson for $50 that was locked up tight. It had been stored indoors but sat for 10 years. I figured I would take a chance at doing the least amount of work to see what would happen. Worst case scenario I would have $50 worth of spare parts. So I filled the cylinders with a...

    150 Johnson rod bearings snapping

    Oh boy! Rods caps and bearings should have stayed together and been put back on the same journal. Even with new bearings you could have binding on the crank if it’s a high hour motor and if the caps are miss matched to the rods it could compound that even more. Caps and rods are machined...
