    Leak fix advice

    Ideally it's best clean with MEK or Acetone. Then inject. Wait a few minutes. Inject again. Wait another few minutes. Then press with a tool as hard as you can until you get tired ( to remove air bubbles) . Then let it cure for at least a few days before inflating. The cure time on the bottle is...

    Are drive shafts interchangeable before 1992 and after 1993 for 9.9's / 15's

    That's a great idea. And I would do that, except I have other motors that are all short as well that I still want to use. After speaking with a few friends, they advised me that the splines changed from 4 to 8 once they switched over to 4 strokes. In theory drive shafts from the 70's , and...

    If you raise a rain barrel 10 feet high, and attach a garden hose what kind of pressure can you expect from gravity alone.

    A little update. I've had the cordless washer for a month. You can pick these up on Amazon or Ebay or FaceBook Marketplace for about $50 or less. They put out a surprising amount of spray considering it's battery operated. You can attach a soda bottle to the bottom and be completely portable...

    Are drive shafts interchangeable before 1992 and after 1993 for 9.9's / 15's

    As I'm trying to convert a long shaft to a short shaft. If I recall they changed the splines at the top of the drive shaft at some point , but it would be good to confirm if they are interchangeable between generations since it's nearly impossible to find parts motors for the newest generation 2...

    1982 Johnson 9.9 water pump

    Another vote for turning the flywheel and lining everything up EXACTLY before tightening. "Kind of fitting" won't work here.

    Where are all the inflatables?

    Air floors eventually leak, allow flex and compromise structural rigidity so ultimately you will have worse performance when compared to a soft bottom plywood or aluminum floor. Where they shine is in weight savings, and convenience ... specifically setup times. Air floors are my favorite by...

    Moeller 12 Gallon LPT

    I have a few Moellers - older style. 3 gallon and 6 gallon. The vents suck, but they work fine. Never had an issue. Much preffer Attwood, or Scepter. When you're filling the tank, compress the tank with your foot, then close the gas cap. Compressing the tank gives you extra room for expansion...

    cooling johnson / evinrude 9.9 /15 fourstroke 1998

    The cost savings do not justify the potential disaster. Aftermarket impellers don't pump enough. Buy OEM

    1999 15 hp runs great but is very hard to start. I just changed the water pump. But im sure thats not the problem

    I've seen 4 strokes dated from 95 and 2 strokes dated up to 03.

    Where are all the inflatables?

    That's because cheap online boats from China killed the market. Personally I would avoid any boats made in China . I would buy a used Zodiac made in France. They are one of the lighest in it's weight class , and I've yet to find better build quality. If you're looking for a smaller Zodiac, they...
