    Steering system .Order new cables or new system.

    Another project boat being refurbished. The boat is a 22.2 Aquasport which has been sitting for years and the steering cables are shot. The Morse helm uses two rack style cables which I have found after a lot of searching are quite pricey and I need both. Or do I ? The cables would be Morse...

    8HP 1997 2cyl, 2 stroke Yam

    No, on both leads it does not . The bottom lead will produce spark at 3/8" with a strong yank only once on the first revolution. The upper needs to be at about 1/4 " to show spark, again on the first revolution. The compression is 102 top and 108 bottom.

    8HP 1997 2cyl, 2 stroke Yam

    Motor runs pretty good in a test tank on two cylinnders. Its has good spark but fails a drop down test. While running I can pull the top cylinder plug wire and it will run on the bottom cylinder. The spark is strong on the top cylinder. If I replace the top cylinder wire it resumes on two...

    2006 F150TXR 0406 Regarding the Balancer

    I know its an old subject thats has been gone through. In reading I saw that this model was built without the balancer for other markets. Also I saw that some persons removed the balancer altogether to run their motor without. If anybody who has done this is browswing these threads I would love...

    Yamaha 130 has random miss at idle

    I stumbled upon this thread this evening and of course read it because I am having a similar problem which has not been diagnosed yet. Is it possible that a small amount of water intrusion would do this ? Either through the exhaust plate or head gaskets. The final reply on this thread was...

    Evinrude 150 EXEOM Trim Tilt motor.

    For their price with your research it gives a better feeling to at least go with them vs the many others of unknown origin. Thank you.

    Yam F150TXR 0406 Gear shift handle assembly rod removal.

    Thank you boscoe99 . I appreciate your reply. I got involved in a couple of difficult projects at once. I am working on them all at once. A bit here a bit there, some heat here and some nut buster there. The Gear Gear Shift Assembly came out easily. I was being cautious and did not want to ruin...

    Evinrude 150 EXEOM Trim Tilt motor.

    I am looking to purchase a trim tilt motor for the above motor. The OMC number is 4344495 . In the past I have purchased an after market motor and installed it. It worked fine but I sold the motor so I cant say how it performed over time. I like the fact that it had a composite body vs a steel...

    Yam F150TXR 0406 Gear shift handle assembly rod removal.

    I am trying to remove my oil pan on this motor. This shift rod #20 on the Control parts diagram needs to be removed. The manual basically says to remove it but does not go into detail. It looks as though removing the circlip #24 under the bracket #25 may allow the shaft to come up or that...

    1965 Mercury 9.8 forward is reverse

    A freind of mine dropped off an old Mercury red band 9.8 short shaft and asked if I could get the lower unit back on and get it running. It runs badly but a carb clean should take care of that , it has a nice hot spark. The lower unit went on after fiddling with the shift shaft lining up. The...

    Tohatsu MD90c2 oil pump question.

    I have heard good things about them . This one looks to be in fine condition, though the looks were deceiving. Only 5 or 6 hundred hours on it I am surprised by the issues it has. There is another post coming soon. I will cut the gasket and give it a go. Thank you.

    Tohatsu MD90c2 oil pump question.

    Thank you for your reply. I may try to cut a gasket or purchase another used one. I already replaced one with a used one and it leaked. Luckily the seller gave a full refund. The replacement itself goes quickly, I figure you purged the air and changed the hoses. I did neither. I used the old...

    Tohatsu MD90c2 oil pump question.

    It seems everything is taking longer than I think. And it hurts more also. That aside , I may be mistaken but I thought I saw someone mention putting a gasket on the top housing of the pump body as a remedy to its' leaking. As a certified T technician I realize this method would not be used, nor...

    Tohatsu MD90c2 oil pump question.

    My oil pump appears to be leaking. The lines are secure but oil keeps appearing on the pump bracket. Is there a fix for the pump or only a replacement ?
