    20 hp mercury 2 stroke outboard, unable to get pull rope to pull out fully.

    I’m with Edchris, it doesn’t make much sense to me, it ran fine and then stopped. Can you go through with a little further detail why went wrong ? If any work was done just before that and what has been done so far. If it was running fine before stopping it’s unlikely to be seized, when you turn...

    2006 15 HP Mariner no water out of telltale

    Is it a saltwater engine ? Could well be salted up inside, I would either remove the exhaust cover and have a look to see what state the water passages are or you could turn the engine upsid ev down and put some salt remover down the tell tale (Wessex marine Proflush or Rydlyme) to see if that...

    2012 Suzuki DF9.9A carburetor acting up - pilot screw?

    Does that model have the small translucent tube coming from the top of the carb and going down into the mid section

    20 hp mercury 2 stroke outboard, unable to get pull rope to pull out fully.

    Use a service manual-remove lower unit and see if the problem still exists, remove impeller and check gears/bearings for freedom of movement.

    2012 Suzuki DF9.9A carburetor acting up - pilot screw?

    It sounds like your dealer has run rings round you to be honest, make sure all your fuel is as low ethanol as possible, clean and fresh, you should have an inline fuel filter which sits on the left rear side just before the fuel pump (I normally swap there for a see through one). Once the carb...
