The iboats forum moderators are excited to announce that at this time it appears the iboats forums posting pictures function is working once again. Though we cannot promise for how long, we're hoping for indefinitely.
Since this test is probably the best indicator of the motors condition I guess it is time to buy a compression gauge and follow the procedure.
Question 1, should I buy a tester that screws into the spark plug hole or just the rubber push fit type?
Question 2, My 1985 EV, V4 has been sitting...
Part number is 0330435 and it fits a 1987 Johnson 4.0 Deluxe LS motor model # J4 RDHLCUD.
I can't find this part and the motor is useless without it.
Any help will be appreciated. I did all the normal searches on the net and at Ebay so I guess my best shot is finding one on a dealers shelf or...
I am thinking about getting a small Pontoon boat for fishing in a small reservoir close to home and need some info on a Starcraft Classic 140 pontoon boat that seems to fit my needs. The lake allows only electric motors and I need something one older guy can trailer and launch by myself.

I am trying to wake up sleeping beauty after sitting idle for 8 years. She is a 1985 Evinrude V4 90 HP with VRO, Model # E90ML CRD. The motor is essentially brand new with just 6 hours on the meter but the previous owner was sick for a long time before he died and I got the boat.

I am planning a parts order for carb kits and other items to wake the sleeping beast.
I want to completely bypass the VRO and go to pre mix 50:1

I have to replace the cracked VRO oil tank and all the fuel lines. I will also change the lower unit oil and clean the filter bowl when I drain the carbs.
Owner says it ran perfect before he got sick and also claims it was winterized that last year and...
I just got a boat with 2 motors.
90 HP Evinrude has a tag E 90 ML CRD with serial # J0406286. I need the year I suspect to be around 1974.
It also has a 15 HP Johnson kicker motor and I cannot find a tag or numbers on it anywhere. I suspect it to be about the same vintage. Where should the...
Hi to all and hope I can find some help here with my project.
I was just given a 1975 Boston Whaler Montauk 17 foot fiberglass boat that has been sitting for the past few years while the owner was sick. He has passed and I now have his boat.
I am a very handy fellow with enough tools and...
