    72 Evinrude 25HP slipping out of gear under load

    Here's what they look like. I drew a yellow box around the rounded corners. The clutch dog appears more rounded than the forward gear, but you can definitely see a rounded corner on each. I really would have expected more excessive wear before these parts would fail. I notice that this is a...

    72 Evinrude 25HP slipping out of gear under load

    This engine had this problem 23 year ago and it's been sitting ever since. I replaced the prop with a new one because the old one obviously had a spun hub. You could see where the bushing had slipped and the center was sticking out. I took it out yesterday and started it up for the first...

I ordered some 3/4" Marine Plywood because it's all I could easily get around here. The...

    1972 Evinrude 25HP Sportster Power Battery Cable

    I'm about ready to crank up my 1972 Evinrude after replacing the plugs, rebuilding the carb and fuel pump and putting in new lower seals and realized after pulling the cord a few times that it might be easier to use the starter. The problem is I'm missing a power/battery cable for this thing...

    25 HP - 1972 Evinrude Cover gasket/seal replacement

    I'm working on refurbishing a 1972 Evinrude, 25HP, with electric start (25252R). The engine cover had moss growing on it and the rubber gasket is brittle from being in the elements. I've removed the staples from the seal and sanded and primed the cover. Where can I get a new seal for...
