    I think I killed my TE60TLENE

    I've been looking in the used market for an outboard but there has been nothing in my HP range at all locally. I have heard OBR is a good builder for a reman powerhead??? They seem fairly priced with others I know nothing about. The link here on Iboats for powerheads is a dead end.

    I think I killed my TE60TLENE

    The noise sounds like what i have heard called prop chatter, a pretty scary sound but it occurs under acceleration and deceleration which I understand eliminates that. I don't want to tear it down without an alternate plan, to avoid a basket case. If I end up selling the boat, I would like the...

    Driveshaft Oring

    92 Evinrude 60 hp TE60TLENE<br /><br />In my waterpump kit I got a "driveshaft Oring". I also see it in my parts manual. My question is: Where in the "H" does this thing go? Top of the shaft? Bottom of the shaft? Do all models use this? I didn't find one on dissasembly. Parts manual shows it...

    Loctite

I know the manual specifies an OMC product, but this is what I alrady have. <br />Are there any bolts that should not get...

    What Caused the Meltdown

    92 Evinrude 60 hp, TE60TLENE, was running fine until the last trip out. Cruising @ 5800 rpm, the engine starting loosing power until it slowed and quit. No alarm For Temp or VRO. Upon initial restart engine was seized but after cooling, the starter fired it up running badly. Limped back to the...
