    Faria Fuel Gauge Question

    Well, unfortunately for me, this unit has four pins. I do have access to the two wires coming from the sending unit. I shorted them together and the gauge doesn't budge. Going under the helm, I don't think I'm getting 12 vdc to the gauge. I'll be going back to cut a bazillion ty-wraps so I...

    1981 E70ELCIM Carburetor Spring Identification

    The spring I have is definitely the 314807. Used between 1974 and 1982. I did find a picture of a "good" spring so I can reform what I have to factory spec. I just have to find a home for it. Thank you, J

    Faria Fuel Gauge Question

    I have a Faria fuel gauge that has a burn mark on the rear side and I'd like to test it to see if it is good or bad. The back side, of course, DOES NOT have the three easily accessible stud posts. Instead, it has four small pins within a molded shroud. And, no markings to indicate inputs or...

    1986 E70TLCDC Piston Destruction - What Causes This?

    I'm not sure we'll rebuild. Exactly for that reason. We don't know what caused it. Thank you to all. J

    1986 E70TLCDC Piston Destruction - What Causes This?

    Hi. 1986 Evinrude E70TLCDC, G1114897. No compression in the top cylinder. Opened it up and this is what I find. The piston is eroded right down to the ring. Any idea what causes this kind of damage? By the looks, I'd say it has been naughty for quite some time. Thank you, J

    1981 E70ELCIM Carburetor Spring Identification

    I think I found it in the parts diagram. Listed in the intake manifold section. Do we happen to know if it is part number 0314807? Looking at the contour of the part in the diagram, I can tell the one I have has been modified for expressly improved performance. Thanks again, J p.s., if anyone...

    1981 E70ELCIM Carburetor Spring Identification

    Hi. Long time. Hope you folks are well. I am working on a 1981 Evinrude E70ELCIM which seems to have a fuel flow control issue. It will not start. Compression is good (120+). Spark looks like its there, although a timing light after dusk will be the final judge. Until then, When the engine...

    1958 Johnson 7.5 Fuel Mix Ratio

    Hi. Hopefully quick. I've got a 1958 Johnson 7.5 ready to go. The fuel tank indicates a 16:1 mix ratio. Is that still the correct ratio with today's two stroke oils? Thanks, J

    Yamaha F70LA Tilt Not Working

    Bosco99, I bought the relay because I have experience with Mercruiser relays that don't allow the complete 12v through to the motor. Reference 99yam40, above. The ones I've worked on won't enable the motor without the full 12 v. So, at that point the decision was for the cheaper part. Motor...

    Yamaha F70LA Tilt Not Working

    If I apply 12 volts between the light green and engine ground (or blue and engine ground) the tilt motor does not run. I did get a clone relay block and the motor still does not run. Ugh. Thank you, J

    Yamaha F70LA Tilt Not Working

    Hi. Hope you are well. I am looking at a 2017 Yamaha F70LA, serial 6CJ L 1071423, where the tilt is not working. The relay clicks but the motor does not reliably turn on. Sometimes it seems to try but gives out. Most of the time it will not even try. I have cleaned the battery contacts...

    Johnson B-series Mystery Puking A Milkshake

    Got a thin blade in between and started to loosen at the top end. Definitely splitting at the top. The bottom remains tight like I'm missing a fastener. Hmmm. J

    Johnson B-series Mystery Puking A Milkshake

    I have no model number. It is a straight 4, fuel injected 4-stroke from somewhere in the 2000s, supposedly 115 hp. The coin on the engine says 25 024232. Bottom cylinder puking a milkshake. I'd like to pull the cylinder head to inspect gasket and aluminum. The instructions and videos I see...
