The prop for the 25Hp have a larger pitch then the 20Hp. 1976 Chrysler change the LU on the...

    Hard starting, even with choke. 1989 85hp force

    Yes, they should close almost completly. Workshop manual says you should adjust the butterflies with a piece of writing paper between the carb throat and the butterfiles when closed.

    Coil packs

    The compression numbers are low, number 3 and 4 way to low. A healthy engine would have about 140-150 PSI in compression. Number 1 and 2 could be in good shape cause the numbers can depend on the compression gauge, number 3 and 4 are bad even if the gauge shows low numbers. Pull the head and...

    '88 85hp vs '85 and '86 125hp compatibility

    95 PSI is low but if it is equal at all three cylindres it might be the gauge that is incorrect.

    "71" chrysler 70hp distributor questions

    Clean the rotor cam gently, just to get rid of dirt at the surface. Put a very thin coat of grease at the cam surface and clean the rotor button, contact terminals for the high tension wires, no grease for them. The distributor pully is spinning with the same speed as the flywheel soo no need of...

    what is this part and where to get one?

    It looks like it is okey. Nothing wrong with it. As I said before, from you video I do not see anything wrong. It seams like it is working properly. When starting you have to pull the cord rapidly in the beginning with this Bendix gear typ recoil starter.

    what is this part and where to get one?

    Check the pic for part number 43-803642T at Crowley Marine. The spring should slid in and suit in the groove at the bottom of it. If that groove is gone the gear will not work properly. In your video it locks like it is working properly !!!!

    Force 125 88’ won’t run

    Yes, if you set the idle with the muffs you have no water back pressure to the exhaust and no load. The proper way is to set the idle and the air fuel mixture in water and in gear, BUT idle 1200 rpm with muffs and the air fuel mixture screws out 1-1 1/4 turn you are going to start it and idle in...

    Force 125 88’ won’t run

    The idle screw is on the bottom of the tower shaft, it rests against the block. The screws you are talking about are the air fuel mixture screws. The air fuel mixture screws are set from 1 turn out from lightly seated to about 1,5 turn or even more. They have to be tune individually, see post by...

    what is this part and where to get one?

    Yes those groves are for the pin, BUT there should be a grove in the Bendix gear where the spring should suit. It should be at the bottom of the Bendix gear (under it).

    Force 125 88’ won’t run

    If you do not be able to get below 3000 rpm at idle something is not set right. Put it in gear would not make it to go down from 3000 rpm to 1200 rpm, no way. Have you adjust the throttle pick up point properly? Is the idle screw back of all the way?

    what is this part and where to get one?

    There should be a grove in the Bendix gear #2 (white thing in the pic) where the spring #3 should suit in. Is the grove still in place or is it gone? When pulling the cord the spring will make the gear to move up as the spring is hold in place by #4 and the pin #10 will slide in the grove in the...

    1975 chrysler 4.9 wont start

    If the flywheel key is shared the time when the spark appears will be wrong. It would not fire even if it has good spark. Set the points to 020 in (0,50 mm) that is the right gap. You can check for good spark and that it can jump 1/4 in, 5/16 or 3/8 are even better (6-9 mm) by putting a wire in...

    1990 Force 120HP #2 Cyl zero compression and upon opening piston shows damage

    I have never replaced those if they was not broken, but I am stingy. BTW I have never had a crank case leak that made any issue depending on those crank case seals either. But no bad ide to replace them.
