    My 1992 evinrude will trim up, but will not trim down. I can hear the relay clicking, and have swapped the relays, same result. This is the first electrical problem that I have had since the motor spent 3 days submerged in saltwater last year, it could be a corroded connection but I do not...

    1992 40 HP Evinrude VRO

    I just purchased a used 1992 40 HP Evinrude. It did not come with the oil tank or hose for the VRO. I mixed oil with the gas and fired it up. I get intermittent beeping from the controls, and assume this is a low oil indicator. Should I disconnect the buzzer and go?

    1972 50hp Johnson Ignition Problems

    I am trying to revive an older motor and can not get a spark on either of the two cylinders, even with the kill wire disconnected. The Stator resistance (wire connected to power pack) is good (reads 480 ohm, book calls for 500 ohm) but the output voltage is low (reads 46V, book calls for 150V...

    72 Johnson 50 leaks gear case oil

    I am the proud owner of a 1972 model 50 hp Johnson. My wife's aunt bought this motor and terry bass boat new, and recently gave both to me. There is some sentimental value here. Many a fish have been landed on this boat in the Biloxi River, my favorite fishing grounds. I also learned how to...
