    New to Inflatables. Crack in PVC tube.

    If it's not leaking I wouldn't worry about it. If you're worried about it I would clean the crack with MEK and apply a few layers of glue and let it cure. If you're really worried about it, you can always clean with MEK and apply 3 layers of glue and patch it and let it cure. But I wouldn't...

    Disconnecting the fuel line, let engine burn gas ?

    I pull the line and run it dry. When it dies, I pull the choke, give it throttle and run it again. When it starts to die again , give it more throttle.

    DIY : Fitting an old style 15 carb ( 1974 to 1992 ) on a new style 1993 to 2001 9.9 / 15 HP powerhead

    Came across this interesting info . It's especially interesting considering the lack of newer style 15 HP carbs available vs the abundance of old style 15 carbs available ( plus I've got a few laying around ) so I thought I would share this with my brothers. Click the spoiler here: Enjoy

    2 stroke 70 hp that hesitates at acceleration

    When you reuse gaskets, you squeeze them thinner with each disassembly / reassembly. Air gets in (where it's not supposed to), then when you demand fuel it sucks in air and starves while choking corrects the lean condition momentarily. You take it apart to clean it again and nothing changes...

    Your lean condition is likely solved with a carb rebuild.

    Boat Ramp Etiquette

    Boat ramps, especially public launches are complete sh:t shows and people are idiots. Luckily , I'm able to launch from beaches where the views are nicer if you know what I'm saying.

    1984 Evinrude 25hp mounting

    Good job on raising the cav plate, but don't you feel your clamps are a bit high. It's barely on your transom.

    Rare 9.5 x 12.5 OMC Propeller (13 spline ) for a 9.9 / 15

    OMC released them for a short while, and only for the 93 15's. My favorite prop. If this one ever gets damaged, I'll never be able to replace it.

    Modern Engine Thoughts

    2 strokes are the best. Sell your old one as is , and buy a newer 2 stroke. Or better yet, ask for help, and sell it as a running outboard completely serviced. A friend of mine just picked up a 1999 3 carb 25 Johnson in mint condition with low hours , new CDI , coils ect and for him it's perfect

    Best solvent to soak parts

    I hate getting my hands soaked in gasoline and solvent all the time, so I use an ultrasonic when I can. But at the end of the day soap and water can do so much. Vinegar is great, but try to get the cleaning vinegar instead which is double the strength of household vinegar. I also always have...

    Rebuild your carb again. OEM Kits are cheap. For a 1994 15hp : First link and sync back to factory settings (very important) . Drop your idle RPM. Lightly seat the lean rich screw then turn counter clockwise 4 full turns. Turn clockwise in 1/4 turn increments waiting 15 seconds each time...
