    2009 T8, tracking down missing water pump blades/fins

    Long story, but in short, I messed up. I bought a used boat last year that had mostly sat for a decade with intermittent use. I knew very little about boats. I have since learned a ton (replaced water pumps, rebuilt carbs, replaced props, bay kit, fuel filters, etc). However it didn't occur to...

    BF40A Overheating

    As some backstory, this is a 2001 BF40A that I got back in 2023. The boat it was on ended up being scrap and now I've been trying to get this motor running well enough to sell it. I have rebuilt the carb stack, synced the carbs, new thermostat, new lower unit (long story, do your basic...

    New BF50a lower unit won't spin in forward or reverse

    Just got a new old stock lower unit. Looks to be in near perfect condition. I haven't even installed it yet, but I noticed that the drive shaft absolutely will not spin in forward/neutral/reverse. The prop shaft will spin in neutral but not in forward or reverse. Pulling up or pushing in the...

    BF40A - Lower End Nut torque spec?

    As some of you probably know from my previous thread, my lower unit is about dead. I found a replacement but it is a 25" shaft version so I need to swap my 20" shaft over. When I reassemble, what is the torque spec for the gear case end nut? #7 at...

    Is BF50A XL lower the same as BF50A L lower?

    As some of you may know, I'm trying to find a used lower for my BF40A. It's tough because most of them are just as corroded or damaged as mine is. I might have a lead on one for a BF50a which I believe uses the same lower as the BF40a. The one issue is that it is a 25" shaft instead of a 20"...

    Remove Honda bf40 prop shaft holder?

    Good grief, doing some basic maintenance on my 2000 BF40ay LRA before I sell it. Rebuilt the carb, removed the lower unit, rebuilt water pump, removed prop, found old fishing line, removed gross first seal. This is where it goes bad. I struggle with the second seal. My seal puller can't reach...

    2000 XR6 150 Engine Mounted 2 Stroke Oil Tank Not Filling

    So a few months ago I got the alarm caused by the float sensor in the engine mounted 2 stroke oil tank getting low. So far I have: 1. Confirmed intake screen in the remote tank is clear and not clogged with gelled oil. 2. Confirmed no gelled oil in the remote tank. 3. Pulled off the crank case...

    2000 BF40A lower removal?

    Trying to remove the lower unit so I can rebuild the water pump as I suspect it has never been serviced. Removed 4 side screws and one center from under the trim tab. Pulled apart but it seems like the shift shaft is being held in place by something. Diagrams make it look like I either need to...

    Remove XR6 water tube without removing power head?

    2001 XR6 150. Long story short, installing a Bay Manufacturing 5" spacer to go from long shaft to extra long shaft. The 5" draft shaft extension won't fit through the drive shaft hole. Bay says to take a needle nose and pull out the water tube, then insert the extension through the water tube...
