    Suzuki DT100, compression low

    Hi, I recently bought a Suzuki DT100 and I felt it was quite weak, so I tried to measure the compression on it. The result for all four cylinders were 8, 8, 7 and 5 bar. So I suppose that explains the weak engine. What do you think, is it worth trying to repair it? I suppose the error causes...

    Choke problems, Evinrude 70hp -89

    I have some problems with my choke. When the Engine have been stopped and cooled for around 20-30 min, it is very hard to start up again. I noticed that the choke unit does not activate when this problem occur. I can feel that the choke unit activates when the Engine is completely Cold but not...

    No cooling on Johnson 9.9 -74

    As the topic says I don't get any waterbeam from the "coolingwater output". The engine is a Johnson 9.9hp -74. I have recently changed the impeller. I have only started it with waterhose connected and not in sea, can that influence? Any ideas? Thanks in advice!

    Evinrude 70hp (1989) burbles when throttle from idle.

    My engine (Evinrude 70hp 1989) starts and runs without problem when it's cold. But when it's hot it is somewhat sensitive after putting the gear in and start to throttle. Most of times it continues the "rpm-rise" despite the burbling but some times it also dies. This is quite frustrating when...

    What is the hose connection on the intake for? (Suzuki four stroke 60hp)

    Hi I got some problems with my Suzuki 60 hp four stroke engine (1999). Some times when it's running at idle it sounds like it misfires. This also happens quite randomly during acceleration. When I checked the engine I noticed a hose connection (without any hose) just inside the air filter...

    The Sonar shows two bottoms..

    Hi, my problems is that the Sonar (Humminbird wide Panorama) shows one bottom at 0,6meters depth (no matter what the real depth is). Below this false bottom, the real bottom is visible at the display but you cannot see the depth. I got an inboard transducer, but when I tested the Sonar I held...

    My Evinrude 70hp -89 is charging too high voltage

    Hello, When I am measuring the voltage on the battery without the engine running, I got 13V, but when I start the engine, the voltage slowly rises up until it reaches 18V!? I guess this is not good either for the battery or the engine itself. Can it be the charge controller that has broken...
