    ‘88 Johnson 40 idle jet spits fuel

    If you were using wire on the ideal jet you may have damaged the plastic seat. Did you replace that seat? Not many people do or even know it exists.

    Starflite 3 75hp starter issues

    I agree it’s iffy at best. Its hard to tell from the pics but there looks to be zero crosshatching left. Even if the scoring it has it light there is so much of it there will be opportunity for compression loss. That carbon build is likely the cause. It can be fairly abrasive stuff. Have you...

    Starflite 3 75hp starter issues

    May as well. You will need to do a water pump service at some point anyway if you decide to move forward with any other problems.

    Starflite 3 75hp starter issues

    You should be able to rotate the flywheel by hand. Sounds like something is wrong internally to me. When is the last time this motor ran?

    Did you by chance remove the Welch plug and check and clean the tiny holes underneath it?

    Remove Lower Unit - Johnson 60

    Get yourself a rebuild kit for the primer. It will be pretty much self explanatory from there.

    Help with 95 Evinrude 15hp outboard

    If your just starting to learn then get your a repair manual for this motor. With your model number you will likely find one right here in IBoats. YouTube can be helpful as well but look for videos that come from what looks to be a shop rather than some kid in his driveway. When you get started...

    1996 evinrude 48 hp keeps spinning prop hub help!!

    This is getting expensive for you! I hate to ask but is this happening in the same location each time? As in are you hitting a log or rock? Has the water level dropped and left you in uncharted waters? I don’t know what else to say.

    Need Help -Johnson 70HP 1975 Outboard Shakes

    She sure sounds a lot better. You will be able to adjust the idle down while it’s in the water or even a barrel. You need some back pressure on the exhaust.

    1999 Johnson 90 hp -- No Spark

    Just wondering when you say you hosed everything down was it a light mist rinse or a blast of water? You may have gotten some moisture that found its way into an unwelcomed area. Just a thought

    Agreed I personally would be suspicious about the low compression theory.

    1992 E10RELENA won't go over 3k

    Just for kicks take a look at the cam roller to be sure it doesn’t have a flat spot or grove worn into it.

    water/ fuel filters

    I believe the thread pitch is pretty standard unless you have an odd ball. Most of the housing are pretty universal as well as far as seal size goes. Take a look at the underside of the housing and see if it has several groves on it to fit different size filters.

    1964 Evinrude Yachtwin

    Take lots of picture while taking it apart so you have something to look back on. Lots of help here if you get stuck but I think you will find it not that big a a job. Best of luck.

    58 Evinrude 7.5 tiller adjustment

    Your right. There usually is a tension screw with a spring on it. Is it possible it fell out or snapped off? I’m not completely familiar with this model. Best

    1992 E10RELENA won't go over 3k

    A sheared key will throw your timing off. I have to say any advice givin by Racerone is well worth investigating. Has this been a problem since the carb rebuild or was it running fine at some point and then started giving you problems?
