    Need help with tachometer

    I did some research. First, the manual for original 50 HP motor the remote came with says this 3-prong rubber plug can be used for accessories and wiring diagram (pic 1) even calls it "tachometer". Terminal strip on this diagram shows colors you described, so RC part looks good for tachometer...

    Need help with tachometer

    Great! There is a hope to get tach for it now. I never had it for my smaller motors, but for this one it makes sense to have. Tach in the first post has POS, NEG and LIGHT too , but you said it would not work, right? Can you get me an idea what would be the right one for this? Maybe, pic\image...

    Need help with tachometer

    I think it is later (80s) year. What is this black rubber plug (3-prongs) ? It can not be T&T since this remote does not have T&T switch.

    Need help with tachometer

    But, the motor has to be equipped with some kind of "plug" or "outlet" for that, right?

    Need help with tachometer

    Hello, I got this tachometer with the boat. I am not familiar with those. I think it had OMC motor before I put 1979 85HP V4 (85ML79R) on it. Is there a way to use this tachometer somehow? What kind of "sensor" does it use?

    Need advice on power tilt for 1979 85 HP V4 Johnson

    Need advice on power tilt for 1979 85 HP V4 Johnson

    Thank a lot for valuable info, because most of what I see for sale is FastTrac. Motor is on a stand now. A little too cold to put it on now, boat sits outside. The RC unit that I have now came with 1981 Evinrude (E50BELCIC). Do not know if it is original, but it does not have T&T buttons. Is...

    Need advice on power tilt for 1979 85 HP V4 Johnson

    Hello, I was working on restoring this motor (85ML79R). It is ready to go on the boat, but it has just tilt assist cylinder, so it is manual tilt. I was thinking about adding power tilt. There is a bunch of them on Ebay from $100 to $300. I do not have experience with Power T&T, so can anyone...

    Need help with 1968 1.5 HP Johnson model SC-10S

    I am back to this little guy. Got new OMC coil, points and condenser. Put them in and got strong spark on 1/4'' gap tester. Disassembled and cleaned carb one more time. Motor starts and runs fine about 600 rpms with timing mark right in the middle of 2 bars. So, aftermarket ignition parts did...

    Need help with 1968 1.5 HP Johnson model SC-10S

    You are right , I got my glasses on and found 3 tiny bumps. But, the little guy strikes back. After another disassembly\assembly it does not start anymore. Not even sneeze. It means one thing: I am doing something wrong. I know that the best solution for this is to stop, take a step back and...

    First Tohatsu motor 9.9HP

    gman2692, if you do not have B2 manual do you mind checking what is the range of timing marks from MIN to MAX tiller turns? Is it -3 to +22 ( see pics from SeaRider post #56) how to check it? Also, what is the length of vertical and horizontal linkage arms measured from center of the pivot...

    First Tohatsu motor 9.9HP

    I got measurements from the manual (pic 1 & 2), but it does not cover B2 model what could be the problem. I was not able to locate B2 manual. I had to play with arm length to achieve -3 to +22 range. It is as much as tiller arm can rotate in both directions now. Stopper screws are not even...

    First Tohatsu motor 9.9HP

    Do you have any manual that covers B2 model? I wonder if older B2 model has differences that cause all this headache.
