    Answer to Suzuki DT200 rev limited to 3000

    My 1993 carbed DT200 ran fine but would not go above 3000 rpms. No warning lights were on, no surges or stalls. Figured it was an ignition problem or one of the sensors limiting the revs. Swapped out all the electrical components from a parts motor, disconnected the sensors, etc, and no fix...

    Converting from motorola box to simple coil ignition system

    Engine ran great for several outings this summer. Then during a fishing trip after running at all speeds for an hour, engine would die/cut out if opening up past about 1/3 throttle. Would be hard starting after, but would idle and would run perfectly smooth at high idle. We made it back to the...

    Need engine temp sender and gauge for 1977 Chrysler 135

    The engine head temp sender is missing and my understanding was that it hooked up to a buzzer originally and not a gauge. Can some one steer me to the correct parts so the sender matches up with a gauge that will give a temp read out and the proper size of the sender unit threads. I am not doing...

    throttle cabel adjustment prolems 1977 Chysler 135HG

    the idle stop on the tower shaft doesn't return to "stopped" position so the idle speed is very high ( I don't have a tach) in neutral. I can push the thottle linkage back to idle by hand, but when the control box level is moved to forward, the thottle engages first so the motor jumps into gear...

    Went to hook up the new teleflex steering ( first time getting the "barn" engine on the boat) and the spash well mount seemed low so added a longer bolt to the "swivel" part on the front of the engine. Didn't look right. Did some research today and I guess I am missing a drag link or link arm...
