    60hp vs 75hp for 160ss

    How is the 75 a detuned 90 hp? That would only be on the 3 cylinder blocks.

    60hp vs 75hp for 160ss

    Starter not engaging after running

    Pull the flywheel cover off and check the Bendix. Sounds like some grinding going on there. On that motor the starter has a small gear on it. Under the flywheel cover is the Bendix and another gear.

    Sharrow prop

    So people don't damage $80,000 outboards. How much is a lower unit again? Where has it been debunked? Maybe put up that fact. It's funny people on here defend 80,000 outboards. But a prop makes them lose their mind. But yes please put up where it was debunked

    1988 35hp - Multiple issues

    Either tip the motor on its power head and run penetrating oil down the driveshaft and hope it works. Or take the lower unit apart and remove the pinion nut and drop the lower. This will leave the shaft hanging in the power head yet. May have to break the water pump housing. Then pull the power...

    Sharrow prop

    I enjoy the comedy of this post. SDS runs strong through it. People will pay $80,000 for an outboard. But cry about $5000 for a prop? Yup SDS is strong here. Lmfao

    Sharrow prop

    The results are out there. But haters gotta hate. It's funny how everybody wants to complain about this prop. I like it because I don't have an aversion to new technology like others here. But why do I have to prove it? I am not the one hating on it if you want to prove it to be the failure you...

    1995 Mercury 25hp 2 stroke issues

    Did you adjust the low speed screw? What about the carb sync? What is your float height? Not abnormal for a 2 strk to load up a little at an idle.

    1995 Mercury 25hp 2 stroke issues

    What is your compression? Clean your carb and get a OEM carb kit that includes the primer and fuel pump gaskets. Then make sure the ball and spring are in good condition. Unless the reed valve is broke no need to replace them. And if you have one broke you will have bigger issues
