    1975 225 OMC

    Thanks, Boat was new to me. When parts show up will put it back together and take it to the lake. It did have impeller issues so was good to take a look.

    Difference

    I have a1993 Yamaha T9.9elrr kicker on my 1976 slickcraft 22’ boat. It had a 11.75 by 9.25 prop on it. Is a 12 by 9.25 be much difference? . Never run it all out 97% of the time just trolling. If the motor has to work a little harder to troll that would be fine.

    1975 225 OMC

    I wish I had known you can’t run the motor in a barrel. Manual says squat about it. But so I’m clear when in the barrel I have the tell stream behind that hose fitting. But no water. So when I go to the lake if I have the same tell stream behind the hose fitting, if I remove supply hose at the...

    1975 225 OMC

    Can you think of a reason I have the stream but no water getting to my thermostat housing? I did unhook the hose at the thermostat housing, then hooked a garden hose to that end and forced water backwards and had the drive in a tank but could feel the back pressure at the intake on the drive, so...

    I have the cap on that was a before picture. The stream comes from behind the four bolt piece behind the hose fitting. Is there a tell stream of water on the omc 225 like a outboard to confirm the water pump/impeller is working?

    1975 225 OMC

    When I have my outdrive in a tank and start it up I get a stream of water spraying down behind the piece behind the piece of hose in the picture, does that mean my water pump in the drive is pumping water? I’m told that’s what that spray means. Because I’m not getting water through the...

    1975 Slickcraft

    With a 225 OMC stern drive. I want to install a four stroke kicker bracket and mount a four stroke Yamaha 9.9 kicker. Just got this boat and not to familiar with OMC and installing my fishfinder today I drilled a hole on the top of the transom for cables and was surprised the transom was maybe...

    I inherited a 22’ Slickcraft 225 chev OMC so sold the Glassply. OMC runs strong but would like to get a donor Which will be a topic for another day. Motor is strong but would like to transition it to mercruiser if I can find a similar Mercruiser motor and key to prop tip setup.

    I might be dumping it anyways. I packaged the pod and the Glassply and I’m getting a lot of interest. Call it a fishing expedition.

    Black cap trim.

    I got fed up with it and dropped it off at the shop today. I did buy a new stainless relief valve and if you can believe it only 1/2 of the first oring to go in was left on it. So ya 1/2 the smallest ring is rolling around in there somewhere. Brand new and the oring crapped out.

    Ok have a line on a couple complete 4.3 setups. And I do look to find answers but again some differing answers on the motor mount questions. My boat is a Glassply so obviously 470 to 4.3 previous adapts have been done. Is there a measurement I can use to be sure my mounts are wide enough for the...
