    Exhaust cover and oil line.

    your gonna have to find a way to heat the screws up and get em pretty hot without heating the aluminum around it too much and use some penetrating oil. you may have to use a impact like this. but be careful not to knock the head of the screw off cus then your up crap creek without a motor or...

    I saw a lot of OMC TurboJet 115 posts in this forum so thought I'd take a shot at my Initial startup and troubleshooting attempt questions...

    ive never touched one of those but usually the vro is powered by crank case pressure and just pumps oil to the back of the carb or behind the carb into the intake the wiring should only be for the horn and or warning lights but it should still pump with out em. that said id just mix the fuel if...

    Evinrude 1992 60hp Difficult to start

    there was a sb issued that calls for the relocation of the telltail elbow to be moved to the top of the exhaust housing so it would evacuate any air pockets but that is something to worry about after you figure out the low compression issues remove the head and see if the head gasket is split...

    Evinrude 5.5hp Fisherman Low Spark

    i had a similar situation not too long ago with crappy coils that i bought brand new they were supposed to be seirra coils but i think they swaped em out with cheaper ones. that paticular set of coils was short about 6 laminations the only way i could get it to get a good spark was turn the...

    Loss of power after changing my 1997 115hp Johnson lower unit onto my 1989 90hp Johnson

    clogged pickup in the tank or the inside of the hose probably the hose has become rotten inside and has blocked its self if i had to guess. the primer bulb should not collapse only under a vacuum will it collapse and it should never be under said vacuum

    1995 Johnson 20hp "missfire"

    the remote control has nothing to do with how it idles. bear with me it would only take me a second to show you how to do this if i was there its harder for me to explain than actually do the job. the armature plate has a cam and on that cam is a mark the roller should not touch that cam untill...

    1995 Johnson 20hp "missfire"

    now that i read that a little closer have you verified by looking down the carb when the throttle is in idle position that the butterfly/throttle plate inside the bore of the carb is closed thats what racer is trying to tell you the mag plate has to advance quite a ways before the carb butterfly...

    1995 Johnson 20hp "missfire"

    how is the small pin holes right at the back of the butterfly thats where the fuel comes in at idle they may be easy to miss to the untrained eye they are small it will be routed to the idle air mix screw\orifice you may have to remove a welch plug to blow thru all the channels. the only other...

    Evinrude 5.5hp Fisherman Low Spark

    make sure that your points gapped at .020 and are clean take a dollar bill and slide across the points with em closed to get any dirt or grime off the face if its still not producing good spark. with that said i have a few engines that produce a better spark with the points adjusted one way or...
