    28 Mariner

    I have been trying to breathe some life in to an old Mariner 28 for a friend of a friend. My question is about the spark I should expect from this engine. I am used to working on OMCs mostly and I am not getting the spark to jump on my gap tester but it will fire the plugs when grounded to the...

    NS 40C Flywheel Nut

    A friend of a friend is looking for a flywheel nut for his 1984 Nissan 40 HP. I have tried to help using my normal sources but have come up empty for him. It is a lefthanded thread nut and I guess, kinda rare. Does anyone have a lead on one? He gave me a part # of 33 40013200m

    9.9 4 Stroke Mercury Fuel in Oil

    Working on a 9.9 4 Stroke Mercury serial number OR4415xx. I pulled the dipstick and fuel/oil spurted out. I am guessing the fuel pump is the only way for fuel to get in the crankcase?

    Birthday present Chrysler

    A friend from church gave me this little Chrysler. I cleaned the carb, gas tank, checked for spark, etc. She fired up and ran right away. I made a bowl basket but would like a new one and I think this model has an impeller to cool the leg. I can't find a parts list for this model. I think...

    I am working on an older 9.8 Mercury. It is one of years that had the smaller fuel connector. Does anyone know the part number for the water pump impeller?

    Suzuki DT4 1995 4 HP longshaft

    The little ear is broken where the float attaches. Is this something that could be fixed easily or will I need a new carb? The motor will run great one time and not at all the next time out. So, I guess gas is not getting into the carb all the time due to the broken piece.

    Impeller question J50tleuc

    I want to change an impeller on a 1997 Johnson 50. I need to disconnect the shirt rod but, I don't see it. I have a manual and it says to disconnect the shift rod screw. I am not sure where it is. Will I need to disconnect the shift and throttle connections to see the screw? I assume its...

    Stupid is as stupid does Re: J10ECBD

    I was given a 9.9 Evinrude today. The previous owner had seen a motor started with a drill and decided to try it himself. Probably would have worked fine but he used an impact driver and stripped the threads on the crankshaft. So, what can be done? Can the crank be re-threaded? Or would...

    Yamaha 25 shift shaft very broken

    A friend's son brought his motor over for me to check out. He said that it froze during duck season and they could not get it in gear. Maybe they put a good deal of force on it. It is a C25MSHQ. I took a short video of what it is doing. https://youtu.be/HbTrjTJTNm4

    5 HP Nissan No Spark

    I usually stick with my old OMCs but... (How many times have you heard that?) Anyway, a friend of a friend asked me to look at this motor for him. It's a Nissan 5 HP NS5B 369-1 305xx. The owner had tinkered a good deal with it before I looked at it. He had replaced the coil with one that...

    2007 20hp Johnson 4 stroke?

    I have been asked to replace an impeller in a 2007 Johnson 20hp 4 stroke but I don't see that there was a 20hp that year. The motor doesn't have its transom sticker and the HP is blocked over by stickers required by the lake subdivision. The owner believes it to be a 2007 Johnson 20 4-stroke...

    Nissan NSF 9.8A3 Oil Question

    I installed a new fuel pump and cleaned/stalled gaskets and low speed jet in a fellows 9.8 Nissan 4 stroke yesterday. The motor is on his pontoon boat and was running pretty good. I mentioned to him that his oil level was low and he should check it. He called me back later and said it ran...

    3SF Carb question

    1989 3 hp Yamaha 3SF is having some carb issues. It had some skunky gas in it for years I guess. Anyway, how do I get access to the carb bolts? I have stared at it for a good while and decided it would be better to ask before messing something up.

    1988 Yamaha 9.9 ESG

    I have a 9.9 Yamaha that will not engage forward gear. It will shift into neutral and reverse and stay there, working as it should. When I shift into forward there is a ticking sound but no engagement (prop doesn't spin) of the forward gear. If I pull the shift lever with some force to...

    NSF9.8A2 Fuel Pump issue

    I usually stick to my old Evinrudes and Johnsons but a fellow asked me to see if I could get his 9.8 Nissan 4 Stroke working again. I have a very similar, if not the same, motor that my dad uses, a 9.9 Mercury 4 stoke. This fellow had let someone borrow his motor and that person left it...

    1975 10 hp 104HC questions

    I picked up a 1975 10 hp Autoelectric recently and have been trying to get it going. It is missing a few parts and I haven't been able to find a parts breakdown for it. I need to find the bolt that goes through the gen/starter and into the top of the crank shaft. Does anyone have a parts...

    BZBF 2HP Honda

    My first time looking at one of these little 2hp Hondas. It doesn't have any spark at all. I removed the kill switch wire and checked again. Still no fire. Is this likely the coil? Magnets look good and feel strong.

    7.5 Mercury water flow issues

    I am working on a friend's 7.5 Mercury. He said it wouldn't start but it did for me on the 3rd pull. What concerns me most at the moment is that no water is exiting the tell tale. I pulled the LU and checked the impeller. It's new and is turning with the shaft. I put the cover back on...

    20HP Mariner Ignition issues

    Working on a motor for a friend. His 20 hp Mariner had no fire. He said the switchbox had been replaced last year. I cleaned every connection I could find, disconnected the kill switch, and could never get any fire so I ordered a new switchbox and installed it. Now I have spark jumping 7/16...
