    I have a 1996 grady white w/ twin 200hp yammi's. I took it in for a tune-up last spring and the marina adjusted the link and sync. They checked compression and everything else. The one motor seems to smoke a little more than the other. How do i know if the oil injector is "leaking" a little...

    yamaha 200hp 1995 txrt stalls at idle

    Help, I had my motors tuned this winter. Mechanic said compression and everything else was fine. He said he did a link and sync. I am assuming he adjusted the carb linkages and sync the timing. No parts needed. Engines ran great first 3 fishing trips. On last outing i stopped for fuel on...

    1993 Force 120 hp voltage issue

    Hi All, I have a 93 Force 120 hp outboard. Sometimes at idle it will be reading 12.4v and running rough and then it will jump to 13.8 volts and go up to 14.1 volts and then idle fairly smooth. When I shut it off and restart it it will be back at 12.4 volts. It may not go back up but stay there...

    93 Force 120 hp trim problem

    Hi all, Kinda stupid question about my trim but......this is the way I bought it. 93 Maxum 18' bowrider. When the motor is tilted/trimmed up the center cylinder should extend and when it is out all the way the tilt cylinder should tilt the motor up and out of the water. Mine actually tilts up...

    1993 force 120hp stator

    I just bought a stator online for my 93 120hp outboard. I bought the exact part number from the manual and it is a 20 pole stator. I just pulled my flywheel of the motor and the one on the engine is completely different. It is black epoxy covered and only has 12 poles and has the number...

    1993 Force 120hp idle speed

    I have a 93 Force 120hp OB. A repair shop just rebuilt my carbs and fuel pump and got me running. She screams at top end at 5000 rpm but when it idles in gear it kind of lugs and stalls. It will start but you need to throw it in gear and jump on it to get her going. The mechanic said that it...

    One of my twin 200's is idling rough and also seems its not revving up like normal. Any hints at checking for simple electrical problem like a bad coil or a plugged idle jet on a carb. thanks for any insights. Dave

    trailer/trim bracket

    I bought a 95 Maxum with a force 120hp outboard from an estate sale as is. The outboard was tilted up with a bracket under the motor that went through the holes on the trim bracket. I figured out to take out the hitch pin and pull the bracket out to free up the motor to tilt up and down. The...

    1995 200hp yamaha 200txrt idling rough

    My carbeurated, oil injected 200 hp Yamaha has just started idling a little rough. When it idles you can hear it sputter or spit once in a while. I changed the plugs with new NGK's but it made no difference. I think it may be a bad coil but not sure. Does any one have any ideas how to narrow...

    I bought a boat that sat for six years. When I finally got it started it had no power at WOT and bogged bad. I replaced every electrical component on the engine, stator, timer base, brain box, rectifier and coils. Timing is at 20 btdc. I also boiled out and rebuilt all 3 carbs. The engine...

    Hydraulic Steering

    I have a 27 grady white w/ twin outboards. The hydraulic steering seems "mushy". I have to turn the wheel at least a 1/2 turn to get the motors to start turning. How responsive should the wheel be? Seems like it always been that way since I have had the boat.
