    2001 Mercury 115HP 2 Stroke Power Issue

    So the new Carrier Bearing came with new seals on there. I lubed them up and put everything back together. Put locktite on the Pinion Gear after taking the shaft out. Sealed that as well once I put it back in there as well. I will have to give a compression test before placing values. At the...

    2001 Mercury 115HP 2 Stroke Power Issue

    A lot of people were saying it was probably due to water freezing. I never saw really what the issue was. I live in the lower part of South Carolina near Charleston and we barely get days that freeze as it is. When I took everything apart I looked at the gear teeth and noticed nothing wrong with...

    2001 Mercury 115HP 2 Stroke Power Issue

    Lower Unit Gear Slipping

    You meaning full tear down by taking the lower unit off completely, taking the drive shaft out and pulling the rest of the gears out as well as pulling up the shift for the shifter? Someone else had suggested that to me but it is kinda odd due to the fact that I live in South Carolina where we...

    Lower Unit Gear Slipping

    This weekend, while I was launching the boat, I put it in reverse to get it off of the trailer and the engine sounded like it wasn't engaging and was grinding stuff up. So I still pushed it out to the dock and then drove it around to test it while I was able to. Forward would work with what...
