    Sometimes people don't read the dates. Just start a new thread listing your motor model number, what the problem is and what you've read. Best way to get information.

    Silliest Question on Fuel Mix - Thank you for your patience

    And once again this thread also demonstrates that old school mechanics are set in their ways. I know they have bushings...and I also know that 24 to 1 is lots of oil. Much much better oil. Again, I stand by my statement that kbait gives excellent advice and I'm sure he's done it. Of the...

    1989 Johnson TJ50TLCEC No Spark

    Rectifier converts ac to DC power to charge the battery...running it unhooked will fry it. It does not affect it's ability to run though. You need a DVA adapter to test correctly but if everything checks out ohm wise replace the pack as directed.

    Silliest Question on Fuel Mix - Thank you for your patience

    Kbait's original suggestion will work fine. Never seen him give out any bad advice. With today's oils, I'm running all my older 2 strokes with less than their original suggested oil ratios with 0 failures. This boat, with it's 1985 30 HP johnson, I've been running 75/1 for 3 years. Not...

    1989 Johnson TJ50TLCEC No Spark

    Got confused with another thread...you have one power pack so that could be your problem. Rule out the stator/charge coil/chaffed wires then pp is the issue assuming all connection have been gone through. (Corrosion) Salt water motor?

    You made this statement..." my wire colors do look correct " max rules has color charts but you already must know. Continuity test on wires should come out with 0 resistance. Resistants for your stator coil will be listed online. All the ignition systems can be tested but the power pack. If...

    Sounds like it could be a bad wire...time to do some continuity testing. Wire or stator is my guess.

    Idles then dont

    Fuel issue, low idle circuit. Full speed that circuit is bypassed and run though the main jet. You most likely missed something cleaning the carbs.

    Idles then dont

    Should be set higher than that if there's no load. Possibly could be your problem.

    Starter issue 1990 E'rude 8 hp.

    Didn't need to....the stopper broke at the flywheel. The parts your talking about are unnecessary for operation of the outboard, strictly a safety device

    Starter issue 1990 E'rude 8 hp.

    I have a 1991 Evinrude 8 HP that I bought brand new and that broke twenty years ago. I like it because lots of times I back off beaches in windy weather and I can start it in reverse.
