    So, what did you do today?

    Anybody want a job as a mercruiser tech? I will never do another d a rn bellows again. Still trying to replace the bellows. Decided to try a whole different bellows and I broke the little monitor fill line fitting again. Got to pull the engine again...I've done a hundred of these if I've...

    So, what did you do today?

    I swear, mercury/mercruiser could send me 25000$ in free parts and I still wouldn't have a good thing to say of them. Been fighting with one of those stuuuupid bellows rings for 4 hours. All I have to show is a swollen wrist where I whacked myself with the 2# sledge.

    Won't pump water when submerged

    It would appear you are assembling some part incorrectly. Some folks have a hard time getting the H2O tube to seat in the pump outlet properly. Has this motor ever pumped water well, fully assembled and in the lake, for YOU?

    I would clean the carbs. I would beg borrow or steal a compression guage not made in China. Good old north American. I would compression test first.

    Well, applesauce day. The neighbor and I are putting up this year's applesauce. Nothing like applesauce that you can taste the thunderstorms in with your pork chops on a cold February evening.

    Gas tank pickup tube

    Get a new tank? They do sell replacement pickups for permanent tanks but I dont think you will find one that fits the 12 gallon portables.

    2000 225 Johnson 2 stroke

    When you say it jumps are you talking about the trim and tilt? A rough running motor that seems to bounce around in its mount? A little more clarity would be helpful. As far as running hot...was that in the lake under load? On muffs in the driveway? Again, the whole story is always better...

    So, what did you do today?

    Well, this evening I spent some time on you tube. I was looking for some outboard repair videos to maybe help train the youngster I have working with me. It blew my mind how bad a lot of these youtube mechanics are. For the most part, on the 20 or so videos I checked before giving up, these...

    Water puking out from everywhere

    Need pics. Is it possible you routed the tell tale hose to the air silencer? I doubt that would happen. I'm wondering if your base gasket or something failed. This is probably something that you won't get much help with on an online forum. Really need to see it.

    Water puking out from everywhere

    Going to need pictures or video as this does not make sense. There is not water passages in the air silencer. Maybe base gasket? Has this motor ever ran well and what have you done since last time it ran?

    Johnson 50 won’t exceed 2k rpm under load

    you put a new primer bulb on, is the arrow on the bulb pointing towards the motor? The temp sensor is the tan wire coming from the head.
