    '89 Evinrude 100XP Broken Ring - Options?

    First, I would have guessed that the horsepower range would have included more than one displacement. Reading through other threads, though, it sounds like the main difference (or in some cases only difference) is the carbs? Apparently they're all the same displacement? Also sounds like there...

    Here's another eBay option. It says it's off of a '92 100HP Johnson. Will it be the correct block?

    '89 Evinrude 100XP Broken Ring - Options?

    I'm in Washington State. Guessing you're at the other end of the country? I've been looking on eBay, but am having trouble being sure that it's the right powerhead. Example: eBay Powerhead. I'm having trouble believing the powerhead is the same for all '78 through '97 85, 90, 100, 112 and 115...

    Thanks for the reply. Is the problem fixed with aftermarket rings? I see you guys posting elsewhere that these motors always suffer from broken rings. Looks right. Suggestion on a source for a good block? You want to sell me one?

    Thanks for the quick reply. I thought I'd seen 20 over pistons before but it looks like 30 over is the way. You think that'd do it or is this block toast? I suspect we never go 60 over with these, is that correct? Sleeve it maybe?

    Hi Gang, Weekend before last we were out messing around on the river when I noticed that the boat was way down on power. She wouldn't get up on plane. We limped to the dock. Once home, I did a compression test... about 90 on all but the top right cylinder. That one has 60. Pulled the head...

    Is it Okay to Lift the Boat by the Shift Rod?

    Thought I should close the loop on this. FYI, here's what it looked like when it was screwed up: Notice the tape on the clamp for the adjuster and the fact that the lever is pointed somewhat forward. There was no more adjustment left on the front wheel, and I couldn't get it into forward...

    Is it Okay to Lift the Boat by the Shift Rod?

    Hi folks... New to the forum and to boating. It's going to be evident: I've got a new to me 18ft Bayliner with an '89 100HP Evinrude E100STLCEM. Running it in the driveway I noted a leaky base gasket, so I decided to replace it. I thought I had everything out of the way when I started to...
