    Suzuki DT85 timing off by 40 degrees

    I have recently acquired an 81 DT85 (8501-001734) as a resurrection project. Well, it lacked spark, and through diagnostics found it to need a CDI switchbox and a couple of ignition coils. Now, after replacement of these components I have great spark, but the timing for all three cylinders...

    Has anyone tried a GM HEI module for a switchbox

    Part needed for repair

    I am looking for a driveshaft I believe to be part # 656-45511-00 It is for what I believe to be a pre 1980 Yamaha 25hp. Maybe as old as 1975. Apparently this is a non US part number as I received the number through a European Yamaha dealer. Heck, at this point I would be happy with another...

    I've got this old 78-80 maybe 25hp Mariner outboard that I need a driveshaft for. The Mercury part #45-81165m is no longer available. The tag reads Yamaha 25A 648 301611 Being as this was a longshaft but has an extension housing I would prefer shortshaft, but at this point I would take one...

    Trailer wheel bearing adjustment tip

    I've seen a number of discussions related to the proper pre-load or adjustment used when installing your trailer wheel bearings. Some people like em tight and some people like em loose. I've even seen these two opinions strongly backed with websites telling why they need to be one way or...

    What are they

    I picked up a pair of short shaft 6cyl Mercurys. Although the decals suggest 1100 model motors, both blocks are labeled Tiger and with the PN 836-2485. Any idea?

    Parts pricing early 80's Mariner 25hp

    I have an early 80's Mariner 25hp motor and decided to do the water pump again. It's been a couple years. This time I wanted to do the kit, as the last time I just replaced the impeller and feel it could have come out better. Anyway I went pricing parts online this morning, and found the kit...

    1980? Mariner 25hp

    I recently aquired a Mariner 25hp tiller shortshaft. I believe it is severely overpropped even for my little 13.5' aluminum boat with it's 9 7/8X14 prop. I'd like to find a used prop for it, but unsure if it shares a common propeller shaft size, or application with any other motors. Model #...

    Milky gray oily gunk in exhaust. whats wrong?

    Maybe nothing.<br /><br />I've seen a number of times where people try to chase down motor drool only to spend a lot of money and frustration at it and still have it continue.<br /><br />Let the motor sit for a few days and drain the lower unit. Look for water to have separated and come out...

    Old Junk

    I've been having a blast running one or the other lately. <br /> I have a problem with the throttle control on the Johnson 1958 18hp. If I let go of the twist grip it will slowly 5-10seconds go all the way to the stop position. It would be nice if it stopped in the idle area and didn't have so...
