    '95 Evinrude E25TELEOR 25HP

    The mounting stud on the starter bracket facing the engine front snapped off and subsequently, I discovered the lowest of the 3 fasteners on the port side had vibrated out and the upper port side fastener was loose. I was able to extract the original stud and replace it and re-assembled and...

    High Speed Orifice - Johnson 9R70C

    The compression is even at around 72 psi in each cylinder and the spark jumps a 1/4" gap. And as I say - once the HS mixture is corrected, the open throttle performance is as I would expect and the operation is smooth. This engine quite the Frankenstein I have worked myself into. OMC rebuilt '73...

    High Speed Orifice - Johnson 9R70C

    Thanks for weighing in - all gaskets new - tried 2 carbs - nearly identical. The pullover tube is the small tube from crancase to intake manifold? This powerhead a '73 rebuilt by OMC - I changed the intake arrangement to the earlier manifold and reed arrangement which had me install a nipple...

    High Speed Orifice - Johnson 9R70C

    The powerhead was purchased from Sea-Way Marine and was told was remanufsctured by OMC - came in OMC wood crate. Converted '73 style reeds to '69 style which I believe were a better design. Both mag coils, points, condensers, plug wires and plugs replaced. Throttle synchronized. Runs great! -...

    High Speed Orifice - Johnson 9R70C

    High Speed Orifice - Johnson 9R70C

    I checked out the orifice - .048 as indicated in service manual - so - I am thinking a defective casting perhaps - a crack and a leak which is in parallel with orifice flow, Is no-one out there using these 9.5s? such a fantastic little engine.

    High Speed Orifice - Johnson 9R70C

    I have a 9.5 that will idle correctly - and the low speed mixture seems to be correct - but at full throttle power is significantly low and the low speed adjustment has an effect on the high speed mixture. If I close off the low speed adjustment, the HS mixture seems to come into range and the...
