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.
Can I use a newer style steering link kit on this motor for remote steering. There is a bracket in the front where a steering link fastens. Any ideas or which ones may work are appreciated. Thanks
Can anyone give info on how to check and get the readings on a 9.9/15 4stroke 2cyl 2001 Johnson/Evinrude?
I am able to crank the motor and have a DVA adapter for my meter. The coil is new but no spark at the plugs. Want to check each part to see if they are good. Stator shows no signs of...
Friend dropped this Erude 15 hp 2001 electric start 4 stroke off and I told him if I could get it running I may buy it. The wiring harness he brought has 3 plugs on one end and several plugs and ends on the other. There is also what I thought was a warning horn separate. The shift control has...
Have a friend who is selling his 01 4 stroke 15 hp. He said it quit running and he thinks it is a power pack or stator. Ran fine until then. Don't know much about 4 strokes but he is selling at a good price. How hard is it to replace a stator and such. I have replaced power pack and coils...
Never unhooked one of these motors. Can anyone talk me through how and where to unhook the controls and shifting stuff from this motor? Got the steering and cable off though. Thanks much
Boat had this motor on it when I bought it. I knew nothing about it. I went out today and started messing with it. Was getting spark at the plugs but would not start. Sprayed gas into carbs and it started right up and kept running until I turned it off. Waited awhile and it started up by...
Picked this up a couple weeks ago and the snow storm kept me from going over it. Well, I got in it today and pulled out 3 gas cans 4 seats and posts and anything else that was not tied down. The bottom floor is 1/2" plywood that has been coated and the raised floor is 3/4" and braced with 2x's...
The boat I am looking at has one and I'd think it is an older version square plug. It has the Auto Pilot button on the head and says PDAP 70 lb. It is a 54 inch shaft 24 volt. I am not at all in tune with these since I have the old plug and go MinnKota. Can anyone give me any info how these...
I am trying to figure out what model or at least narrow it down. I have not had a chance to go look at the boat yet as it is out of town and owner is not sure. I do know it is an aluminum 1971 18 foot and I figure the previous owners did some interior design on it. Just wondered if someone might...
I want to get rid of the console and steering wheel to give me more room to move around in my fishing boat. Most stick steering I see on boats is up front and on the left. I figure it is easier to rout the cable back to the motor and control the steering from that side. I would like to...
Runs like it should at w.o.t. and then just quits. Starts back up and runs fine then it will quit again after cruising awhile. This model has the internal tank and has the pulse /vac. system with the little orange bladder in the carb inlet. (part #0324661) I pulled the bladder out and would like...
Anyone ever change their steering and wheel to the side like stick steering? Reason I ask, it is tight quarters when I want to set up my trolling gear and try to set behind my console. I would like to take out the console and move my steering to the side and open up my seating area. Any...
Can anyone tell what carb is used on a 1994 to 2001 9.9 motor that has the electric start but also has a pull start rope? I do not know if the dealer set this up to be electric or it came this way. I want to change the 15 hp carb now on it and just wondered if it would take a regular electric...
Am I dreaming or did I see a post where someone said to disconnect the positive side when charging your cranking battery?? Reason was the charging current could damage the rectifier over time?? Any one on this?
Was out yesterday for a day of fishing and the temp sensor horn would chirp every once in awhile. Water is pumping good (replaced impeller last fall) and motor runs fine and nothing seems to be acting up. Is there a way to check on what would cause the chirping. Motor is a 1994 15hp Evinrude...
Has anyone ever pulled an old inboard/outboard out and welded a plate over the outdrive hole, then put an outboard on for power. I have not gave this a try but I found a 19 foot aluminum deep v with just the out drive still attached. The transom is a straight across design and I was thinking...
