    Morse/Teleflex rotary steering system - wrong way

    I just had my pontoon boat re-decked and re-carpeted. When the shop reinstalled the console the steering is opposite of what it's suppose to be. I believe it is a morse rotary steering system. There is a red cable going in one side and a whiteish clear cable on the other. Does anyone know how to...

    91 Evinrude 115 idle adjustment ?

    My manual says to adjust the idle while in gear on the water. There is no way I can get to the motor on my 24' Party Barge Pontoon. Any tips, tricks or suggestions on a good way to do it on the muffs? She's idling at about 800 RPMs and wants to die when I put it in gear. I want to bump it up...

    I've seen a few posts about using .040 instead of the OMC manual's spec of .030. Just curious why? What is the benefit or performance difference?

    91 115 Evinrude - Flush out power head through thermostat hose

    91 Evinrude 115 - Starboard temp sensor warning horn

    The Starboard o-temp warning sensor goes off after about 5 minutes running on the muffs at idle. ~ 900 RPMs. My OMC manual does not tell you how to get the sensor out. Do I need to order a head gasket and pull the head to get to the sensor and install a new one? I can count about 2 seconds...

    Oil drip from the prop exhaust after running on muffs

    I have a '91 Evinrude 115. I noticed the other day after running on the muffs that there was a small amount of oil that dripped from the prop exhaust. Is this from the fuel mixture? Too rich? The motor seems to be running fine. Thanks, John
