    Numbers on prop - 1991 30 HP Evinrude

    What is the second number for that is stamped/cast in my propeller ? The prop is aluminum 10X15. There is also a 3122T on the hub. What is it for? The number seems to be cast in like the dia/pitch number. Jim

    Shopping for a mid 90's 20-25 hp Evinrude

    I am wondering if they are the family. I am concerned about weight and understand a 20hp is about 115 lbs. Is a 25hp the same. It will be a tiller long shaft no electric start. Jim

    Need fuel tank for '87 2.5 hp Evinrude E3RCUA

    I have recently aquired the above engine and it is intended to have a rather unique fuel tank that mounts to the back of the lower unit mid section. All the mounting hardware is on the lower unit but I need the tank to make it complete. I can run it with a remote tank but it would be nice to...

    '92 15hp rich off idle

    Hi again guys. I have a real nice running 15hp that has one annoying trait. From a little way off idle to probably 1/2 throttle it four cycles pretty bad. I keep rolling throttle on and at a point it will clean up and run smooth as could be. Is there any thing that effects that area that can...

    '92 Rude 15 rich midrange rpm

    The title pretty much says it all. I recently bought this engine from a small OB shop. They had gone over the engine and it looks like the carb has been off and cleaned. It idles fine and will pull the stock 9?" X 10" prop over 7000 rpm on a 14' Crestliner jon boat. I am amazed how much power...

    Long shaft for NS 3.5 B

    I have the above engine SN 3FO-1 14524 that you fellows helped me restore last year. I now have a 20" transom 14' Crestliner Jon boat. I have a Evinrude 15 two stroke for main power that does a great job (25mph) and I would like to hang the little Nissan alongside for trolling and backup. I have...

    '92 15 Evinrude prop

    I have purchased a Crestliner 1448 MT jon boat (14' long-48" bottom width)for lake fishing and the engine above. It has a 9? X 10 prop that I believe is the prop it came with. The prop is not in good shape and has two bent tips. The specs for this engine say max RPM is 7000. Can anyone guess if...

    2007 50 hp 2 stroke Mercury prop

    Hello again guys. Today I went bass fishing with my son in his new to him 17.5' Tracker bass boat with the above engine. The tag on the cavation plate says 12"-22P 1.83-1. It is a three blade stock Merc prop. With the two of us aboard it would turn 5400 if he tweaked the tilt trim. I didn't...

    '86 Evinrude 8hp idle adjustment knob

    The idle adjustment knob doesn't do anything to change the idle speed when I turn it. I would like to pull the twist grip off and see what is going on but I don't have the Special Tool No 390767 called for in my OMC repair manual. It is used to depress the retaining pins that hold the twist grip...

    Repitching Rude 8 1/2" X 9" aluminum prop

    I am pushing a 12' Crestliner jon with a 8hp 1985 Evinrude and we are loading the engine a little heavy at WOT. Is there a shop in NW Washington that can take a little pitch out of it. I have searched for a lower pitch prop and can't seem to find anything between it and the 8"X7" that will be...

    Light weight engine for 12' Jon

    I'm 67 years old and just bought a 12' Crestliner jon for my wife and I to do a little lake fishing. I carry the jon on the top of my Samurai tintop behind our motorhome. I have aquired from friends a mid 80's 4.5 Evinrude that weights 49# plus the fuel tank. I also have a NS3.5B Nissan that...

    Shortening a Power Drive 40

    I,m retired and new to this fishing thing and am setting up a 1236 Crestliner for my wife and I to lake fish for trout and bass. I aquired a seldom used Minn Kota Power Drive 40 to mount on the bow. (9.9 OB on the transom). The Minn Kota has a 48" shaft and looks absolutely goofy on that little...

    Inexpensive Test Tach

    I would like to buy a tach for 1-2 cylinder two stroke engines. I have a Tiny Tach on my 503 Rotax on my ultralight but I think they work only on the number of cylinders you specify when you order them, one cylinder tach is different than two cylinder. They are about $40.00 and that would be...

    NS3.5B Nissan parts availability

    I guess this post is aimed mostly at Tohatsu Guru. My local Nissan dealer ordered some parts for me on the 12th and said they would be in on the 19th. When I checked on the 19th, the 20th, and the 21st and again today I was told their parts supply system was very erratic and he didn't know when...

    Nissan NS3.5B Kill Switch

    I see my newly aquired engine has a kill switch that is spring loaded "OFF" with a orange plastic clip holding it in the "ON" position. For my use that seems like it would be a PITA. Do they have a conventional "ON-OFF" switch I could put in instead? Do all three bolts under the cavation plate...

    Nissan NS3.5B shift lever sticky

    I just aquired this engine. It has been in salt water. The shift lever is very hard to move and I am guessing salt growth in the housing. I have removed the cover on the inner end and taken the screw out of the lever in there. The lever is free on the shift shaft but I can't pull the shaft out...

    Service Manual options

    Hello group-New member, I just aquired a cherry 4.5 Evinrude engine and want to get a service manual for it. It is a 5RHCIC and from the information I found here it is a '81. I looked online and there seem to be several options. I would like something that is as specific for that engine as...
