    Evinrude 115 won’t idle on muffs

    Alright I finally got my sei lower unit fixed and went to to run the boat on the ear muffs and the engine will only idle for about 30 seconds. It’s not ethanol free fuel, I only use that gas which is bad for outboards when I plan on letting it sit for couple weeks or less. Well didn’t plan on...

    Adjusting carbs/checking for lean fuel/air ratio

    So I've finally fixed my air leak on my motor. Now that that's over, I'd like to focus on some other stuff I need to get fixed on it. I've got a handful of videos of the boat running, and I've noticed that it sounds like the engine is running leaner then it used to. It sounds kinda sick. Sounds...
