Does anyone know of a source for replacement cooling hoses for a 1971 Chrysler LM318 w/raw water cooling? This is in a houseboat and uses the dual pocket sherwood water pump (no engine mounted circulation pump).
What's the best/easiest way to remove and replace the shift rod o-ring on a '65 Evinrude 6hp? Do I need to drive out the bushing? If so, what's the best way? Appreciate any ideas.
I have a 24' pontoon that I have mounted an '83 70hp Evinrude motor on. I can't tell if I have pick-up timing issue or if the prop is too big. Motor starts and runs great but I can't get any power out of it. As soon as I throttle up it seems to load up and die. Can anybody out there with a...
I have an 1983 Evinrude 70hp the starts and idles great but won't accelerate. This is a new to me engine on a 24ft pontoon. I think I have propped it as it should be (but not sure) with a 14x11 prop, rebuilt the carburetors, and replaced the stator (it was bad). My question is, when advancing...
I have a 1983 Evinrude 70hp and it starts right up and seems to run good but overheats. I get no water out of the tell-tale. The waterpump was just replaced a couple of months ago and it was pumping good afterwards. I had problems with the stator and replaced it but now it won't pump water...
This is a model 6902M. I have done this before but for the life of me I can't remember how I got the lower unit off. I have removed the 4 bolts and dropped the lower about an inch or more. I can see the shift rod but there is no coupling as others have suggested. The shift rod appears to be...
I have removed the stator and did an Ohms test. I got no connectivity whatsoever on the 2 brown wires and no wires are broken so I assume the stator is bad. If so, what would cause it to go bad? Is there something else, rectifier or powerpack, that could cause this and should be changed also...
Anybody know what size socket is required to remove the Flywheel nut on a '83 70hp Evinrude? I need to change the Stator. The boat is in TN and I'm in OH so I need to know what size socket to take with me.
Checked the voltage coming from the Stator, got about 4 volts AC. Does this sound like a bad stator or is there something else I should be looking at. Motor won't fire, get no spark at all.
I have a 1983 Evinrude 70hp on a pontoon. Just bought it and first time out. Motor starts and idles great. I put it in gear and no problems. I start to throttle up and it begins to accelerate but then bogs down and quits. Starts right up but I can get no power. This motor has no miss or...
Can someone tell me if there are sacrificial anodes on an '83 Evinrude 70hp? I don't see anything on the gearcase that appears to be one. Motor will be used in fresh water only.
Resealing a '83 70hp Evinrude and I've gotten to the Shift Shaft cover. There appears to be an o-ring in the hole under the brass bushing. How on God's green earth are you supposed to change that? I could probably get the old one out but I don't see anyway to get the new one in. :confused:
I'm resealing the gearcase on an '83 Evinrude 70hp. The book calls for OMC Adhesive M. Is there an automotive (or other) substitute for this? Permatex #2? What about OMC Gasket Sealer...is there a substitute for this also?
