    Evinrude. 140 Hp. Not charging. The tach is working

    I got a chance to take it out today. I backed in the ramp and had trouble getting it to start. Battery was at 12v. Once it finally fired it ran for a little with some throttle. It would not idle. Even when stalled. I had a hard time getting it to start back up. After it stalling on me...

    Evinrude. 140 Hp. Not charging. The tach is working

    I happened to be at the closest marina boating when I took it out for the first time this year. It started the speed up and slow down as soon as I took it out. I tried to drop it off for them to look at since I was working a lot they said it’s to old. They won’t work on anything in the 90s...

    Evinrude. 140 Hp. Not charging. The tach is working

    I’m going to order a new one. I haven’t got a chance to test it. I will still test it before I replace it, I usually shy away from throwing parts at it but the hours I’m working are limiting my diag. time. Not to mention it takes me an hour to get to the water to test it. The boat is...

    Evinrude. 140 Hp. Not charging. The tach is working

    It is slowing and speeding up. I drained the fuel and put fresh in when I got it out. I changed the fuel filters and a water separator filter when I changed the fuel. The impeller only has minimal time on it. Less than 6 hours of run time.

    Evinrude. 140 Hp. Not charging. The tach is working

    Thank you. I will try to test it tonight! Could a faulty reg/rec cause miss near WOT? I checked the spark on all 4 cyl and it is jumping 7/16” at idle. When I get on plane the boat rpm bounces up and down almost like you would keep pulling the controls back and forth.
