Tough finding any information on these motors. Anyone know what year is my motor, my lower unit crapped out and need to find equivalent. Id tag# 0D237795. Thanks for any help!
Been wrenching on chryslers and OMC outboards but dam this outboard is giving me troubles! Cannot find anything on this motor, the S/N is 0G845169C. Need to find a manual and waterpump for sure. Model number is 20ML year 1999. Also taking out lower unit is a pain, cannot find the throttle nut...

So I did a compression check manual pull start (motor has electric start), 68 on both cylinder cold start. Thought had a bad carb because it woiuld literally take a minute on the electric start to start and run for about 5-10seconds then dies. I notice no water pumping out...
Acquired this motor from my uncle last week. Compression is at 110 on both cylinders. check spark and none. I checked the wires and all is connected. Open flywheel and cleaned contact points, still no spark. I'm clueless since this motor is not points and condersors like i've fixed older motors...
Just acquired this motor from uncle last week. He said it was hard to start and doesnt run. When I recieved it, it was just that, hard to start and barely ran. It took about 15 turns to start but once started, it would run for about 5 seconds then died. I did a quick carb clean and it ran for...
To this date, I have owned only about 4 motors ranging for 6hp-25 all Tillers. This 8835a is my first non-tiller motor with controls. So, yesterday I picked up this motor since I have a 8834a (non electric and Tiller). My plans was that if I couldn't get the electric start motor to work, i'll...
Like title says, it idles and trolls GREAT on low speeds but once I beef it up on WOT, it would go fast then slowly die down. Any input is appreciated!

Today I picked up a 1970-71 ward 6hp model vwb27006a for 25bucks! The motor was seized but upon opening the cowl, it looked new! I brought her home and opened her up. Since it wouldn't turn over, i researched how to unseize a outboard with many people saying to use penatrating oil or wd40. It's...
New to the boat scene. Just sold one of my first motor, 15hp force 1985. I wanted a more reliable motor so I'm looking towards "johnnyrude" motors. Mainly any 15-25hp going on my 14ft aluminum. My question is, is there any year that I should look for being more reliable? My budget is under 700...
We acquired this motor for our wedding gift. It was stored outside for 7+years without any maintance or start ups. I recently took it for a tune up to a local enthusiast of chrylser outboard motors. He put the right plugs in (l86c champions), before it had some 35hp johnson plugs in. After tune...
