    Suzuki DT15C wiring schematic

    I would like to know if anyone had come across a wiring schematic for this model. Can’t seem to find much info on this DT15C which has been converted from oil injection to premix. Thanks

    2004 Honda 9.9hp four stroke impeller change

    Hey thanks everyone for the many responses and insightful suggestions! Since I must be the first one in this predicament to update; for those who may actually need help. I ended up discovering that the prior owner or whoever did the impeller last, cross threaded the connecting coupling to the...

    2004 Honda 9.9hp four stroke impeller change

    Trying to change the water pump impeller on this unit and having a hard time with the shift rod connector; after un doing the lock nut which was no problem the connecting nut will not budge and I’m afraid to muscle it. It’s really hard to see why it won’t thread up as it should. I soaked it with...

    Mercury 9.9 four stroke OHOO3349

    Hey everyone, Recently got a mercury 9.9hp 4stroke and after going through it somewhat, I got it to finally crank up but only by having the throttle wide open while pulling the cord. It will sort of run but only if I keep on the throttle; soon as I release it the motor will stall. Checked oil...

    1996 Force 120 with crazy compression numbers

    I say dive into it. I’ve resurrected a 88’ 125hp with parts from 90’ 120hp and it runs like it was new. I’ve got parts of you need-good luck

    Motor stalls in neutral

    No deep cycle batteries with these. I’ve went through several tachs until learning the lesson. In line fuse before your instrument panel as well for safe measure

    force 120 hi reving issue

    Well, to answer your question; yes but…I ended up having to swap the entire powerhead out because I melted a piston due to a bone head lean/rich condition Mal adjustment. All said and done; she’s purring like a kitten now. Slight high speed studder but I just back off the throttle and she clears...

    Help with FORCE 125XT

    “ have voltmeter, will travel “ spend some time getting to know your wiring; label it if it helps then it’ll all come together. Clean replace connections and test everything then tuck it away. Happy boating!

    Help with FORCE 125XT

    Sounds to me you’ve got 3 more issues; the prop on the 85 depends on personal preference, load, and what it is you wanna achieve. Control box-without seeing it and how it’s all connected; may be loose at the helm or stripped on the motor side; or not set up right from the start. Kill switch is...

    Water in Fuel Starting Issues

    As Jerry said; if you don’t completely rid the entire system of it then you keep having issues. If it was me; I’d pump the lines and clean out the tank, dump the carbs, blow everything out with air, dry it all out, etc,.for my piece of mind. I’d install a separator unit. Pain in the rear but not...

    Water in Fuel Starting Issues

    Yeah running her down to low you’re asking for trouble; older boat, tank, no separator…? Disconnect tank and line; try running from a portable maybe?

    87 force 125hp high speed studder

    Update to this issue as of today. Ended up buying a new head gasket as I never actually checked it on this powerhead. The transfer port gaskets were replaced two years ago so I had a feeling those were not the issue. Took it out today and the high speed hickup seems to disappear and I actually...
