    1991 Evinrude 200 shift rod

    Dumb question, is UP on the shift rod forward, or reverse? (fork from here http://forums.iboats.com/forum/engine-repair-and-maintenance/johnson-evinrude-outboards/10425266-counter-rotating-engine-with-standard-prop )

    Counter-rotating engine with standard prop

    So, will I do any damage to the lower unit by running the motor in reverse? I think the prop that the last guy bought is a standard prop, and its on my counter rotating engine. Either that, or I messed up something in the OMC controls when I changed the cable.

    1991 Evinrude 200 aspirator valve

    Can someone tell me what this thing is for? It says water intake, but often times its called an aspirator valve. It just seems to hang in the back of the block hooked to the tell-tale. Its #115 in this picture...

    Releasing clamping bolts from transom after glassing.

    Just wondering what methods there are to releasing the bolts I'm using to clamp the transom in. I'm planning on using a liberal amount of PB to glue the transom to the hull. Through bolts to hold everything tight, but gonna have to get them out after. Thoughts?

    21' Bayliner Transom Rebuild

    What are your thoughts on cutting out the outside of the transom/hull instead of the inside? I don't really want to lift the cap and floor in order to repair this transom. Can I go from the outside in?

    Another transom repair.. Yes, I'm dumb.

    Well, fixed the 15' boat, and sold it. Bought a 21' boat. Needs a transom. Question is, after seeing 2 boats with completely rotted out plywood transoms, yet any "real" wood in them is solid, why don't I use planks for the transom? I'm thinking 2x12 planks, tabbed and glassed in. Thoughts?

    Uflex vs teleflex vs what have you.

    1991 Evenrude V6 2-stroke OB. Bayliner Liberty (21' roughly 1991 as well) Existing cable for the inboard is a rack+pinion type. Need to purchase a new cable for the o/b. Are they all the same (rack style)? Do all brands of outboards use the same setup? I'm cheap (poor) and don't want to...

    2 Stroke oil and Ethanol blended gasoline.

    So, my little oil injector pump on my merc 40 isn't working. So I bypassed it, and mixed oil with fuel. From what I read, regular 2 stroke oil doesn't play well with Ethanol blended gasoline, and I've heard many (snowmobile) horror stories about engines seizing up. So, I'm using $20/l full...

    1991 40 "Classic" Buzzer/alarm wont shut off.

    So, had my boat out for its maiden voyage today. Ran great for a while, I shut down for a bit, and when I tried to start, the warning buzzer wouldn't stop. Disconnected the sensor wire on the "head" of the cylinder (water jacket near plugs) No change. Disconnected the oil float level alarm.. No...

    1990 Mercury 40HP (Classic) red and black wire

    So, I have everything hooked up (I think) and there is a red wired and black wire heading towards the choke solinoid.. I have no idea where they plug in. The black wire has a connector to bolt onto a ground, and the red wire is a female pin type connector. They are coming from the powerhead...

    Another Transom question. (Splashwell, and overlap)

    Hey folks. Rebuilding a boat. Transom and stringers rotted.. (actually, every single piece of wood on the entire boat looks like wet sawdust) Question is, in rebuilding the transom, when I put the cap back on the boat, do I glue the splashwell to the transom like it was from the last guy...
