    Battery harness

    On a 98 150 ficht, where do you connect the battery harness? I am just guessing that the positive cable goes to the opposite terminal on the starter solenoid that the starter connects to,and the negative to the block. Please let me know if there is a specific spot for the negative, or will any...

    Ficht compatibility

    If what you say is so, then my buddy needs to buy this motor. He needs the lower unit and tilt trim. Then if the power head gets rebuilt he'll have 25 more horsepower. Thanks.

    98 150hp ficht

    Well now! I just got to the 98 150 ficht. As usual, your response made me find it. The motor is laying on the ground, which made it a little tricky, but in plain sight is an understatement. Thanks, I found em

    98 150hp ficht

    I will check further on the motor. The marina that loaded it in my truck used side bolts on the block. I will also look at the parts diagram. Thanks

    98 150hp ficht

    I have an omc 3 bolt lift ring. It doesn't match up with the flywheel on the 98 150hp ficht, which has 4 bolts that are coarse threaded. What should I use?

    Etec emm compatibility

    I need to replace the emm on my 2008 225 etec. Is there a range of years which would be compatible? Also, would a unit from a 200 or 250 hp be usable?

    starting 225 etec on land

    Hey guys. I want to start my 07 225 etec on land. To be clear I have not run this motor yet. The usual ports for using earmuffs look inadequate. If I cover the 6 drain holes at the front of the lower, will enough water circulate with my garden hose and earmuffs?

    235 evinrude year

    I have an Evinrude 235 with a Johnson cover. I tried looking up the year on the chart. My model # is E235TRXC. The serial # is J0001671. I think it is a 1980 because of the C. The #s I looked at have an additional digit after the C, which would mean 81,82,or 83. The tilt trim is 2 wire. Can...

    225 Evinrude separated drive shaft

    I pulled the carrier and backed off the pinion nut. Using the omc tool as the service manual instructs to pull the drive shaft. Instead of the pinion gear popping off, the upper drive shaft pulled out. Can I just slip it back in, or does it have to go deeper? If so can I drive it back in...

    1994 evinrude 225 spark issue

    After running hard pulling a tube for a half hour, I shut off the engine to pull the tube onboard. I let the boat drift for awhile(probably another half hour).. When I started the engine , it ran for less than a minute and stalled. I pulled the cover. The engine was hot, especially the...
