    Binnacle mount control from force to work on my evinrude

    A buddy of mine gave me a nice binnacle mount control box from a late 90's force. Are there adapters made so I can use this setup on my 150 intruder. I would put new cables on and omc connections if this is possible?

    Rodbolt, questions about my 92 130

    I rebuilt my engine last month and have run double oil for the last 6 hours. Engie gets up to 50 mph at 6 grand.

    I noticed the line on the block of my 130 yamaha and all of these valves are parralel with the line. Do these valves suck oil and fuel and push it thru its own line to the front of the intake and how do you check them? Can you blow into them or pull vaccum only? How do you remove them? Unsrew...
