    impossible to find 25hp 1998 identification

    Just buy parts for the J25RLEEB As mentioned above...that "R" directly after the "J" is odd...but the parts will be the same. The needle in the throat is supposed to be off center. That part is called the nozzle by the way. EDIT: I see they had two carbs for the 25 in 1999. IS this your...

    Well guys, I have ANOTHER question!!!

    OK no brainer for those familiar with FasTrack TT systems. I bought a complete TT system PN 5005115 to replace a defective unit on a 2004 E225FHLSOB. This unit is the new replacement for many many models. I am bench testing it. Chucked in vise vertically, battery is used by simply holding...

    Well, now I have a question or two that needs answering.

    Ok, E115TLCRD, 1984 V4 115 flatback crossflow. This motor has a water leak at the bottom of the exhaust manifold cover. It seeps out under pressure, and eventually runs out down the leg. So, I took it apart, and put both the outer cover and the inner filler plate on a surface table. They are...

    Can't find search control.

    Where did the search control/function go? Can't find it. I am using IE 11 with Win7 Pro, SP 1. I would have searched to see if this topic was already covered, BUT THERE IS NO SEARCH function. Is it buried/hidden somewhere?

    OMC 1997 gearcase problem- OK gearcase experts....

    I have had a couple of gearcases come in with metal on the drain plug magnets. Disassembly and inspection showed that the retaining ring/spring wire that holds the pinion bearing from riding up in the driveshaft bore was chewed to pieces. The pinion bearing has ridden far enough up to the...

    Question for the experts.....

    J70ELCIM, 1981 70hp 3 cyl. I think I have run into something I have not seen yet. I have good spark, compression is 135, 120, 135. I have rebuilt the carbs. The problem is that it only idles at 6-8 degrees BTDC. CORRECTION BTDC If you retard the timing slowly back toward TDC, it will...

    Yamaha C55, 2cyl, 1993 Double firing

    Hi guys, I have a 1993 C55 2 cyl 2 stroke that appears to be double firing on #1 only. I have come to that conclusion because the tach on my timing light reads double on #1 vs. #2. Engine bucks and pops and will not idle. I have replaced the CDI unit, and have exactly the same results. I...

    Water in #2 and #3, 1980 70hp Johnson

    J70ELCSA, 1980 70hp, I have water in #2 and #3 cyls. Just went thru all the other repairs (carb kits, fuel lines, plugs, thermostat, etc.) and finally started up in water. Pees good. No overheating. Compression 120 across all three. Spark good across 7/16 air gap. Then I pulled the new plugs...

    2000 era Ficht Injector Parameters

    I have 6 injectors from a parts engine that I need to know the injector parameters to program an EMM. These injectors are off a 2000 225 Ficht. They have a barcode on them that appears to be only the serial number encoded on the bar code. They DO NOT have the square QR code on the side of the...

    Ficht / DI Fuel rails, (specifcally the V6 225 2000 up years)

    Hey guys.... On the Ficht and DI fuel rails, if you have a puncture you have to replace the whole assembly, either the fuel feed (6 lines) or the fuel return (6) lines. My question is...can these be repaired? Is there a known way to remove the black plastic line from the nipple and re-attach...

    Problems with a J25 2001 3 cyl.

    J25TEL3SIE. This is a three cyl 2001 Johnson looper with optical ignition. First, compressions are: 1---90, 2---95, 3---80. Does anyone know if this engine should have higher compression than this? It sure seems to turn over by hand way, way to easy. I cannot feel any resistance as a piston...

    DVA Voltage specs needed

    I have a Suzuki DT20 , 1986 model. CAn someone post the DVA measurements on the trigger wires to the pack? I have a black (GND), a black with red stripe, and a white with red stripe feeding the pack. Also, should this CDI ignition generate a spark that will jump the normal 7/16 in gap on a...

    Tragedy....maybe, maybe not.....

    Guys...... I just answered a member...question...doesn't matter what it was about....but.... He was from the area I grew up in. Kinda spurred memories. So, I grew up in the 1970's in a house that would remind you of Gone With the Wind....a southern plantation home. When I was there, in the...
