You guys are not going to believe this one...........
I had my motor rebuilt over the winter (1990 90 hp evinrude). After about 3 hrs of running time it started to idle rough and stall out. Last night, on the lake, I ran into my mechanic; he offered to check the motor out, and I accepted. After making some adjustments, the motor runs worse than before!! We were out of daylight, so I told him I would bring the boat to him in the morning to have him finish it up. He said, "We're kind of booked up tight this week." Mind you, this is after paying him over $1800.00 for the rebuild!! I limped back to the launch ramp and dropped the boat off to him last night. The motor will barely idle, skips and stalls when it does idle, doesn't run all the way up to the max rpm, and the volt gauge only shows about 12 volts, which indicates to me it is no longer charging. Any advice??
Thanks.
