    Evinrude 9.5 starting problem

    I have a 1971 9.5. I can only get it to start with a shot of starting fluid in the carb. It runs great once it starts. I don't want to make a habit of using starting fluid on a 2-stroke motor. I was going to take the carb off, clean it, set the float level and see if it makes a difference. Or...

    Evinrude 9.5 not getting any fuel

    I've got a 1965 9.5 that hasn't been run since February. It was last run with a Stabil mix. Now it won't start. It fires up when I dump pre-mix in the carb, but that's it.

    9.5 Johnson/Evinrude speeds

    I took my 12' Gregor with the 1965 Evinrude 9.5 out for the first time yesterday. The 9.5 moved the boat pretty well. Judging from what my Sea Ray does (30-35MPH), the 9.5 seemed like 15-20MPH. I was wondering what speeds other 9.5 users have with similar hulls.

    I picked up a '64 9.5HP at a garage sale. It runs OK, but both clampscrews are seized. I've tried penetrating oil, WD-40 and heat with no luck. Any ideas? Thanks.

    Aluminum dents

    I just picked up a 1988 Gregor 12 footer. There are a few shallow, but sharp dents in the hull. Any tips on banging out aluminum. I?ve heard it can crack. Does heat help? Thanks.

    Weird anchor

    I picked up a Mirror Dinghy today for free. The owner included a weird anchor that he didn?t know anything about. It looks like a basic mushroom anchor, but is made of plastic. It weighs nothing. The shank is hollow and unscrews from the base. It is 10? high and about 9.5? across at the base...
