    When you take your boat to the dealership's service department for repairs you're probably getting Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) engine parts. However, if you take your boat to an independent shop, you'll most likely get aftermarket parts. Is there anything wrong with that? Does a less expensive part mean ...

    1987 Evinrude 70HP VRO Bypass Questions

    Re: 1956 Evinrude 30HP sputters but won't run.

    My first thoughts were a flooding carb,most probably the float cut off pin sticking.or maybe the tiny spring clip on the float not on correctly.
