    1992 Johnson 120

    Nothing wrong with a single traditional pump on these. puts out roughly 2.5psi at WOT. Your issue, you will probaby find out eventually, has to do with dirty carbs or an air leak somewhere in the manifold. hit the primer when its bogging down. if it hits in again, you know what to do.

    100+ outboards

    its my opinion that sellers think their gearcases are worth $400-$1200 on Ebay (for example OMC 2 and 3 cyl looper ones) completely un-inspected or serviced. Its crazy. I haven't paid over $250 for a complete non-running motor (mostly 2, 3 and V4 motors) in about 2 years. Gearcases themselves...

    1971 Evinrude SkiTwin carb Bowl

    Never ran the motor so couldnt tell ya. got a really nice used carb for a Gale 40hp. Same block as Racer mentioned. This is the larger Gale block than the 33hp. Here are some pics. I have a 33hp SkiTwin at my shop so can compare side by side. Parts for the mid are identical (sure, the gearcase...

    1971 Evinrude SkiTwin carb Bowl

    i have heard of that Gale powerhead. good info thanks. but the midsection and gearcase look identical to my 66' 33 SkiTwin. Are you sure they are different?

    Post Rebuild Running and Tuning 1996 Evinrude 88 SPL

    nothing to do but torque the heads. FYI after 10 gallons of gas at most, those rings are bedded in more than they ever will be. I hope you are really getting into the throttle to help seal them aka no extended idle periods and gentle throttle applications. i do run my v4 crossflows with 24...

    Starflite 3 75hp starter issues

    you need to replace the head gaskets anyway, so i'd pop the heads off and have a look. if you do not replace the head gaskets, those graham cracker like gaskets will leak sooner or later.

    Remove Lower Unit - Johnson 60

    just buy an OEM brp/ nos kit, not that really cheap crap! Sierra works well, too. you have been warned.

    1995 Johnson 130hp runs crappy

    Joe Reeves -4 method. seems to work well for me. on these motors, cam roller needs to be in line with the hash mark on throttle cam, then idle screw turned 1/2 in for .010'' clearance or so. Idle timing around 5 degrees atdc at that moment. if its not idling well at 5 degrees atdc and all plates...

    2005 115 Johnson PLSOR dies at idle

    could still be a slightly torn pump diaphram, or leaking pulse hose connection to pump. has it been synch n linked properly? if the cam roller is too far away from the throttle cam it will run lean in effect. too much timing, not enough fuel. to set those carbs perfectly, you really need a good...

    1971 Evinrude SkiTwin carb Bowl

    sure but its a 40hp SkiTwin. Cowling and parts diagram shows this to be the case as well. I understand the block is different, but its still the old style with the 33hp version cowl/mid/gearcase. havent checked if the gears were beefed up for the larger block. Model 40153B.

    1971 Evinrude SkiTwin carb Bowl

    it wasn't as a 33, but as a 40!. I believe the last year of the SkiTwin, and the 40hp variant (660cc for the 33hp, and 720cc for the 40hp). Honestly I didn't know a 40hp SkiTwin existed... just the lark/bigtwin 40's. Quite surprised. My part #'s are correct. unfortunately for us, the 33hp float...

    I've noticed this slowdown as well. High fuel prices just make it worse, so everyone wants 4 strokes to boot. People asking ridiculous prices thinking the boating market is "hot" is another factor. sadly, most older 2 strokes will end up in the dump. which is where i will be waiting in the bushes :)

    1971 Evinrude SkiTwin carb Bowl

    Part # 312930 (electric start one with the choke solenoid mount). Float chamber / Bowl wanted. Servicing one of these motors for a long time customer. He's 82 years old, and stripped out the seized high speed needle by trying to drill it out. Mod EDIT: remember iboats Forums don't have a swap...

    1992 E10RELENA won't go over 3k

    so did you do the obvious... squirt fuel mix into the carb venturi when it was stuck at 3,000 rpm?

    1999 Johnson 90 hp -- No Spark

    get the factory manual and a DVA adapter for your DMM. It literally walks you through every component of the ignition until you find the offending part. actually quite simple. rule out the power pack and coils for now. which means test charging and power coils on stator (dont bother with...

    Need Help -Johnson 70HP 1975 Outboard Shakes

    if spark follows the coil, might be a clue here. clean all coil connections and grounds until shiny. you could do resistance tests on coils. takes maybe 1 minute for all 3. i'd pull the head and check for water intrustion with that old 3 piece exhaust!

    Still at it, 1989 GT150 1 cylinder not firing !!!!

    unburned fuel mix is normal when operating at low engines speeds such as in a test tank.
