    Outboard bogs down and dies once heated up.

    Hi, I think it was down to a fault fuel pump. This comes as part of the carb setup on this engine, so I replaced the lot. It looks like the little metal reed type bales in the pump where not sealing properly. I have not yet had a chance to put it on the water, so not 100% to whether this has...

    Outboard bogs down and dies once heated up.

    One thing I did notice, when I was cleaning the carburetor a couple of days ago was that it doesn’t have this little rubber grommet shown in the exploded part diagram. I cut one out of some sheet rubber I have and place it in the carb and the outboard wouldn’t start. Once I removed it the...

    Hi all, I’ve just transferred my old outboard onto my Dory and need a new controller and cables as the one I have a way too long. I can’t seem to find a controller that has 7 terminal harness that’s compatible. Either I find one that’s a straight fit or i find a different controller and will...

    Mariner 60hp idle problem

    Hi all, I have an old mariner 60hp 2 stroke outboard. I believe it was originally Yamaha. Have also seen 55hp version. Was planning on taking the boat out soon now the weathers getting better, but seem to be having idleing problems. The engine keeps coughing and sometimes bogs down and...
