    Starting problem

    This is gonna sound bad cause I don't know what things are called exactly. On my 1972 evinrude 25 hp when I pull on the rope to start motor I have noticed that the flywheel grabs what is below it. This also causes of course the tiller hander to go to stop because when the flyweel grabs what...

    winterizing '57 rude

    I have a 10hp 57' rude. I know to change the gear lube and to spray fogging oil in the spark plug holes. What about the carb? Is there a way to spray fogging oil directly into carb while running or just run it out of gas? Thanks.

    evinrude lower unit

    I changed the gear lube in the lower unit and it was very nasty. Don't know the last time it was changed before I purchased it. The top vent/fill line plug has a black rubber gasket on the plug and there is a plastic gasket that is around the threads of the fill line hole. On the bottom...

    Spark plug replacement

    I have a 1972 evinrude outboard 25 hp model 25202. I just bought a owners manual and read the plug type is a champion j4j. The replacement I have found for the no longer made j4j is the j4c. Are there other champion plugs that work also? I just bought the motor a couple weeks ago and changed...
