    '55 Evinrude 25 hp, more problems

    I have a 55 Evinrude 25 hp, the serial number is 25920 - 25230. Now i've heard that there was a point during this year when a seal was made poorly allowing water to get into the motor. I was wondering if my motor fits that bill. The situation that brought me to this question is that I found...

    '55 Evinrude, 25hp - general questions

    I have a 1955, 25hp Evinrude electric/pull start that runs great when the carb is clean. However, keeping my carb clean is proving difficult with gravel roads leading to the lake and extended downtime between trips - even with a cover. My motor does not have an air cleaner and I cannot find any...

    low and high speed adjustment knobs - loose

    My low and high speed adjustment knobs are loose enough to the point where they unscrew themselves with the vibration of the motor. Is there a pacing material or something that i can use to keep this from happening? can i use something from around the house instead of buying something?

    '55 Evinrude 25hp dies and won't restart.

    During my first substantial time of having it out on the water it started up just fine. The idle seemed a little weak as it died while switching gears, but then after working great for about 20-30 min at full speed it began to slow down in incraments then it just cut out. After a few minutes...

    70's Johnson 20hp bad idle, cuts out at top speed

    I have a 20 hp johnson that idles at "start", but as i switch it to "shift" and "slow" it sputters to a stop. I've heard about a slow speed adjustment, but i am new to outboard motors and have not explored much into mine. It also cuts out at top speed, the priming bubble on my fuel tends to be...
