    No Spark? 89 15hp tiller. Bypass Kill switch test.

    Out running on the river - boat was running well at 3/4 throttle and then it’s like she hit a wall. Attempts to restart weren’t successful on site. I rowed myself in a ways (that was fun) and finally got picked up and towed the rest of the way. We’re on vacation, so I am some tools...

    Why doesn’t my 89 15HP have and idle adjust screw?

    Quick update. Shown here the white one is what I have. The black is the part number from the diagram. My throttle is a bit “sloppy” and engages after the mark on the timing plate (cam plate?). Not being adjustable means nothing I can do about it. Sadly the rollers are not interchangeable...

    Why doesn’t my 89 15HP have and idle adjust screw?

    1989 E15RCEC going through diagrams I should have a small screw to turn up the idle “cam” (think that’s the term). But there’s no screw on the arm near the roller? Engine starts great with a little throttle turn on the tiller handle. But is very low when I put the throttle back to idle...

    Older motor - not sure if 9.9 or 15?

    Got this older small merc on a skiff I picked up to enjoy the local river. Just curious (cause there’s no markings) if someone can help identify it. serial number on the transom bracket says 0B114571. google brings up nothing. Put in marine engine search and it takes me to a page for parts...

    2015 F70 Stalling Issue

    cross posted on iBoats Ok - this has officially driven me nuts. 2015 F70 new to me. 80 hours. Runs beautiful from start up until first stop. Could be an hour, could be 20 minutes. After restarting from first stop (I live in an area with a lot of slow speed zones) She’ll run slow speed for...

    New to 4-strokes - broken F70 "Bracket"

    Afternoon Finally decided to move to a 4-stroke to make my slow river trips quieter and hopefully more enjoyable. came across an older scout with a 2015 F70 repower. She ran good on the water with only a noticable "Clunk" on the shifting i attributed to actually being able to hear it and not...

    2000 Johnson 50 HP won’t idle

    2000 Johnson J50PLSSM i can get the engine to start by manually opening throttle butterflies or advancing the throttle in neutral. But she smokes like mad and there’s unburnt fuel coming out of the exhaust. If I bring throttle down to idle she dies. Here’s what I’ve done so far: compression...

    How best to handle water in gas

    200EXTED for what it may be worth. Finally got the engine running great - but I’ve been using a portable tank as I assumed the sediment and such in an old sitting tank would (at minimum) cause running issues based on contamination. so I put 25 gallons in the tank, installed a fresh FW...

    93 Evinrude 200 Wont Rev Past 3000 RPMS

    I thought so - thanks. But I don’t think I have the optical set up - I think that started in 94-95? Either way, I didn’t think it would work. But worth checking. Heres a flywheel pic as well from when it was taken off. - I also have a new power pack arriving tomorrow I’ll install if the...
