    Fuel vent question

    Turns out that little black speck in my vent tube was a tiny piece of plastic. I removed the vent and will be installing a flush mount vent with elbow along with new filler hose.

    Yamaha 130v4 2 stroke power trim motor

    Picked up a 1995 evinrude 2 cylinder 2 stroke 30 hp. The port on the water jacket cover needs help. Previous owner silicone a tube over this brass port but didn't hold. It's only sticking out about 4 mm (.16"). The jacket cover bolts more than likely will break if I try to remove it. (Try to tap...
