    2005 Evinrude Ficht 175 Engines

    Just about 5 yrs ago I purchased a pair of '05 175 Evinrudes. Most people''s opinions were to run away from them, got the pair w/ all rigging, controls, oil tanks, etc. for ~$4500. After initial problem with high pressure fuel pump on stb engine the engines have performed great. Port engine just...

    Engine Cover

    Will the cover from a 2004 200HP fit on a 2005 175HP? Judging by the P/N's looks like the answer is no........but had to ask.

    Operating Temp

    After I cleared my blocked vapor canister. the EMM temp came down on the port engine. Next trip I had a Water Temp alarm on the same engine after about a 2-mile run @ ~4KRPM. Limped home on 1 engine, fault didn't clear for about 30min. After I got back to the dock, I connected the EVDiag...

    EMM Cooling

    Should there be water feeding the EMM immediately after starting? Or do the thermostats need to open?

    Lift Pump

    Should fuel flow through a 5009883 lift pump by using a primer bulb? I get fuel coming out of the pump if I use a primer bulb but not if I crank the engine. '05 175 Ficht Evinrude.

    Lift Pump Replacement

    Had to replace the liftpump on my '05 175 Ficht Rude. Won't start, cranks but doesn't start. Do I need to prime the lift pump?

    2005 175 Ficht Lower Mount Cover

    My port engine fell off its stand this winter. Looks like there's a hole in the Lower Mount Cover, see pics. Is this required to be sealed? Can I fill it with marine tex?

    2001 225 OX66's

    Contemplating purchasing a 2001 GW 282 Sailfish w/ Twin 2001 225 OX66's. It's my understanding that these engines are just about bullet-proof. What's the minimum I should check? Would like to run them on the hose, check compression and lower unit gear lube. The boat is out of the water. Where...

    Twin 2001 225's

    Looking at a 2001 Grady White w/ Twin 2201.225's I've been told these engines are very reliable. Might be buying w/o a sea trial. Maybe just start. check compression and lower unit gear oil. Looked at the boat today, engines are pretty clean under the hood. Noticed the owner had optimax...
