The iboats forum moderators are excited to announce that at this time it appears the iboats forums posting pictures function is working once again. Though we cannot promise for how long, we're hoping for indefinitely.
Re: Adjusting throttle cam on 57 Evinrude fleetwin
Yep it goes the full distance. I'm beginning to suspect the linkage I have is shorter than it should be. Anybody know how long part #32 in this diagram should be...
I'm hoping some of the experts on this forum can help me figure out a problem with my 57 fleetwin 7.5hp.
It seems that the throttle isn't fully opening the carb--the throttle valve isn't going 100% horizontal (it's has about 15 degrees to go). I suspect this is why my motor doesn't want to run...
My first post here, what a fantastic resource! I just made my first foray into vintage outboards by purchasing a 3hp evinrude lightwin from an online seller (kept missing out on local sellers!)
Problem: the outboard I purchased online has the tip of it's exhaust outlet broken off (see photos)...
