    1975 25 hp evinrude 25502B

    Pull it at night...might see flashes. If you got hit, something zapping. You might have two shorts or two problems. Again, wiring is suspect...old and if it got hot once, insulation melts. Seen it more than once.

    1975 25 hp evinrude 25502B

    Tiller or remote motor? 5/16 gap like suggested? Yes or no? GAP testers are inexpensive. 1/8 inch turns or 1/8 of a turn? Spark has to advance to start cold. I've been hit myself....motor harness was the culprit. Is there fiber washers between the ignition coil and powerhead?

    Shifting into reverse is really hard

    How is the rest of the shifting apparatus now that the gearcase is off? Should be floppy. Very little resistance.

    Etec 75 hp

    Yeah...I own E-tec's too so I'm a fan. Looks like a pontoon boat motor? Might explain all the idling hrs. Be nice to know more history but if it's ok you will love that motor. Btw, BRP is still around just not making the outboard...their also still making parts and warranty for the g2, but...

    Key won’t crank like it’s not in position

    That little sucker is hard to find. I believe this is the part number and Crowley has one. Google lens and AI came up with it. During my search it called it a fuel enrichment but I couldn't get back there...this one calls it the neutral safety switch. I know what you mean...no moving parts so...

    Key won’t crank like it’s not in position

    My uncle used to sell those motors when he owned an Evinrude franchise. I was just a wee little boy back then...the 115 was the biggest they had. Not really sure if this is it but the name of the part seems right. Pretty sure you can ground your solenoid and bypass it but I could be wrong. I...

    Kind of a tough one, but your kind of doing the big "experiment" anyways.

    OEM parts....yes or no?

    Spark on only one cylinder- 1997 Evinrude 50HP BE50TLEUC

    All parts were OEM? If so, spark plugs....connections and or wires are next to test. All wires and all connections. Funny grounds somewhere can lead to time consuming wild goose chases. Frustrating for sure.

    Spark on only one cylinder- 1997 Evinrude 50HP BE50TLEUC

    Points more to the power pack when this condition exist. Mc Tool....yamaha's both fire at the same time at least the ones I've worked which isn't many.

    If what you describe is happening you will soon have a ship anchor if you keep running it.

    1983 Johnson 140 Horse J140TLCT No Spark.

    It's a 2 stroke....find another outboard. She's done. Airplanes clime, then they level off and descend...outboards are going up hills all the time. If you get it running at home nicely...that's great but under load she will try hard....but.... As fast as spark, corroded wires and terminals...

    Mounting bracket for j200

    I see the 3/16 thing now or I get the math, oval the holes...you will be fine. Top only, right? Should need to though. Everything should be the same.

    Mounting bracket for j200

    I have those brackets on my E-tec 115. I've done two of them. They should bolt right on...was your boat missed drilled? You said 3/8 off and everyone else said 3/16... Something is amuck.

    83 7.5hp, smoke from cowl

    Not factory...at least none that I've seen. Should be an easy fix. Any corrosion on the mating surface?

    I'm going to say "yes" powerhead gasket. Pretty loud too. Are the bolts loose?
