I'm afraid not. I don't have access to the engine any longer. I'm just doing some research for him to try to give some idea of where to start to look. Thanks for the reply.
I have a friend that has a 2023 4 stroke that is making a knocking sound down low in the powerhead on the starboard side. It can be heard when idling in neutral but gets a bit worse when in gear. I localized it with an engine stethoscope and it's right int he area where the powerhead connects to...
Thanks for the help. I decided to go in a different direction. I bought a 2025 suzuki 25hp and have put the honda up for sale as a project or parts motor.
I have a J14 Carolina Skiff that I just repowered with a 25hp suzuki. It replaces a 95 model 25hp evinrude. This boat at about 1/4 throttle starts to porpoise very badly with just me in it. If I put another person in the boat with me it calms the issue a bit but the faster I go the worse it...
Hopefully this is the right place for this question. I have a Minn kota 30lbs 12v trolling motor on my j14 carolina skiff. At the moment I have it mounted on the back of the boat. I want to mount it on the bow. This will be about a 12 ft run to the battery in the stern. What size wire is...
I just recently bought this engine. The person I bought it from says that the water pump was changed last summer. I just got it started and had no water coming out of the tell tale hose. I ran a wire through the hose and found no clog. There isn't any water coming out of the upper exhaust. Since...
I have recently found out that what I thought was a 06 model is actually a 98 model. My net question is how much trouble is it to change the prop shaft seal. I have quite a bit of grease leaking from around the shaft and I plan on fixing that while I have the boat out of the water. Thanks
This has been a very helpful explanation. Thank you very much. I'll give the person I bought it from the benefit of the doubt. I doubt there is to much difference between those years. Now I have a better idea on what to look at for parts. Thanks again.
Yes it has that emblem on the top cowling. I think you may be right that the person I bought it from thought that's what year it was. I made the same mistake apparently. And from what I can find on parts sites it's a 98 model. Thanks for the help though.
Happy New Year folks. It's been quite some time since I've been here but I just bought my first Honda outboard. It is supposed to be an 06 25HP. I did a google search for the serial number and the AI says it's a 98 model. I'm hoping someone here can help me out on where I can find out for sure...
