Re: Evinrude Problems

Have you checked the inlet into the bottom carb for security??? It "could" be pulling some air if cracked or loose.<br />This could also indicate a plugged main jet, which I would most likely pull asap and check.<br />Do I understand correct, that you replaced the VRO??? or just the hoses??

Re: Evinrude Problems

I have replaced all hoses from tank to carbs also new tank.<br />did not replace the vro just put in a kit for the fuel side had a part on the gas side that was broke and replased it.<br />How do I go about pulling main jet and how do I check if its plugged???

Re: Evinrude Problems

my jets are not adjustable <br />I pulled parts view and prats list from evinrude to try and find the jets but they only show orifice idle,air bleed and a orifice plug

Re: Evinrude Problems

I know it's not adjustable, but you should have a high-speed orfice in the bottom of the bowl...should be under a plug on the side or front of the bowl at the bottom. There will be an "Orfice plug" to remove, then the main jet will be behind that.

Re: Evinrude Problems

ok that I beleave is the plug that is located in the front of the bowel.<br />so i remove the plug screw, the washer and than the orifice correct? what is it that we are looking for after i remove the orifice or is just removing the orifice and replacing it?

Re: Evinrude Problems

ok I got the main jet out of the lower bowel it looked clean (now I have a extra bowel) any way will rebuid carbs tomorrow. oh buy the way i id. the jet # they are 38D for the main and 40 for the air im going to replace all jets.<br />So my question is do you think the float on the top carb was my problem?

Re: Evinrude Problems

It "could" be...you need to call a dealer and check on what the stock jets were if you haven't already.<br />What about the float that is "shot"???what are you refering to?

Re: Evinrude Problems

the float valve has a clip attached to the float and in my case that clip was missing, also the nozzle gasket was all chewed up
