    Evinrude 55 1978 gearcase

    I think I can do it with this JBweld, but the problem is that the crack is probably in the threads of the drain plug and then I am not sure if the nylon plug gasket prevents the leak.

    Evinrude 55 1978 gearcase

    Hello, I have owned Evinrude 55 1978 since 2013 and it's been working well. Now I first time decided to change the water pump impeller and after removing the gearcase I found that a lot of exhaust gases must have been leaked inside there (black soot). In the figure (arrow) it can be seen a leak...

    Evinrude 15 firing on 1 cylinder FYI

    This is how the prop may look when the motor runs on one cylinder :)

    Evinrude 15 1992 carburetor cover change

    The conclusion here is that the new cover does not fit the carburetor. So, I got one older carburetor and everything is fine now. I was told that the carburetor now is from 10 Hp, but I don't know.

    Evinrude 15 1992 carburetor cover change

    Evinrude is not yet idling. I cleaned the carburetor, but it still idle only with choke. I started to think about the carburetor cover gasket (in the kit there are usually three different gaskets), if it is not the correct one. Anyone here who could see this from the pictures above?

    Evinrude 15 1992 carburetor cover change

    How important is the air silencer seal for this Evinrude's idling? It may run a bit lean as more air is available, but I guess it is not an issue (seal was missing).

    Evinrude 15 1992 carburetor cover change

    Yes, the cam follower touches the cam at sync mark when tiller handle is in start position. At this position carb should just open a tiny bit or not at all. I adjusted cam roller to advance a trottle a bit more. I think I cannot change the link and sync any other way?

    Evinrude 15 1992 carburetor cover change

    Nothing, since it was idling before changing the broken cover and cam follower (it was sliding, not rolling and not giving any trottle at start position).

    Evinrude 15 1992 carburetor cover change

    The old cover was a little bit different (the broken one left in figure), but it was replaced by this new one and the gaskets are same (old and new). I have no idea how these all passages are working, but I am gonna clean them and hope the idle circuit will work.

    Evinrude 15 1992 carburetor cover change

    Those weird holes were filled with small pins which tried to keep old broken cover together. Same idle problem appeared after installing a new cover before I filled the holes by cold welding. I have to check the gasket although I'm pretty sure it's a correct one.

    Evinrude 15 1992 carburetor cover change

    I come back to this Evinrude 15 carburetor issue. I tested the motor today and found that it works well except with idle. It idles only if I pull the choke a bit out. Any suggestions for the next step? Obviously problem with the low speed circuit, just some depris in the jet??

    Evinrude 15 1992 carburetor cover change

    As I told in the first message, my guess is that someone tried to fix the broken plastic carb cover (trying to keep broken pieces together) by this strange way with Sikaflex sealant. I have now a new cover with a new gasket and needle valve. I took the needle valve only 1½ turns out from lightly...

    Evinrude 15 1992 carburetor cover change

    It is clear that those two holes in the upper right corner of the carburetor surface definitely don't belong there. They have been drilled through the wall, and the other one most likely causes air leak since my new cover gasket covers only the upper one. What would be the best way to fill the...

    Evinrude 15 1992 carburetor cover change

    Back to my original message. I changed the carb cover (0337833), gasket (0334043) and needle valve (0435356) after carefully reading LeeRoy's ramblings (https://www.leeroysramblings.com/Johnson_9.9_carb-fuel_pump.htm). When I tested the motor, I could not get it idling without choke. I am not...

    Evinrude 15 1992 carburetor cover change

    This is ok now. The small holes are probably kind of air vents. They became covered by the cover gasket.

    Evinrude 15 1992 carburetor cover change

    I am installing a new carburetor cover to replace the broken plastic one. I found very strange pins (seen in figure) in carburetor top surface, and I do not have any idea of their purpose except a trial to repair the broken plastic cover, where two pieces were also glued. Does anyone have idea...

    Evinrude broken tell tale elbow (fyi)

    I had problems with the broken tell tale elbow plug (hard plastic) in my Evinrude, but I found much better solution for pee hose.
