    My updated post will address that thought. They don't make it easy for one person, yet alone me. All in all, problem originated from that procedure in the first place.

    Opinion on Evinrude 25hp not peeing

    I have replaced impellor on Evinrude 25 hp twice. Long story short, it still didn't pee, so I have it apart now and did a couple tests to make sure all paths were clear. I have also installed new thermostat. After viewing videos of flow is there anything anybody can think of that would cause it...

    Low voltage on old harness 75hp Mariner

    At the motor connection I am getting 12vdc going in measuring from female opening inside. I have cleaned and sanded and made sure all its tight. When I check voltage at the other end for the switch wiring I am only getting 5-6 vdc. I'm thinking corrosion, since it has been sitting around...

    Opinion on this motor operation

    Motor was inactive for 3 months, but was drained for winterizing by previous owner. Would not idle at first but I have been shock cleaning with Seafoam and used Mechanic In A Bottle first. This is how it runs now and have it idling for 1/2 hour with no problems. Also throttle up and down...
