    1990 60 hp Evinrude fuel issue

    Yes, they are. I've rebuilt quite a few on small engines and cars, but I have no idea how the sync and adjust a triple setup. Honestly, I just don't have the time to do it, even if I felt comfortable that I could.

    1990 60 hp Evinrude fuel issue

    It does seem to be pointing in that direction, although I find it odd that they would just suddenly have an issue, after everything working perfectly moments before. Since it will only stay running by pulling fuel in by tapping the choke, it obviously has some issue with fuel feeding the carbs...

    1990 60 hp Evinrude fuel issue

    Well, I added new fuel, a little Heet, another new filter, removed the carb drain plugs, and pumped the ball to get clean fuel. I started it and nothing is changed. I ran it for a few min by choking it when it wanted to die. It never would run on it's own for more than a few seconds. Pumping the...

    1990 60 hp Evinrude fuel issue

    It ran fine last season, and for the first two days out this season it ran as good as it ever had. She was purring across the lake when I went to pick up some friends at the dock. I turned it off for maybe 5 min, and it started right up, but would stall every time I put it in gear. I found a...

    1990 60 hp Evinrude fuel issue

    I was finally able to get that done and found that I did have some water in the fuel in the float bowl. I drained the fuel tank, replaced the filter, drained the float bowls. Someone suggested that there's a drain on the VRO and that I needed to drain that, but I don't see one. Would I need to...

    Filter looks fine, but I'll be replacing it. I don't see any indication of water in the fuel. I'm not sure how I'd check it, other than not seeing any in the filter.

    1990 60 hp Evinrude fuel issue

    First time out for the season. The boat was running absolutely perfect for the first 2 days. I was out fishing and ran over to the dock to pick up some friends. Ran perfect. Turned it off for a few minutes and when I restarted it it would start and idle, but as soon as I put it in gear and try...

    1990 60 HP Evinrude unsure of water, leak?

    Due to surgery and recovery the boat has been sitting in the barn for a year and a half. Got it cleaned up, put some water to it and started. Noticed water coming out in a place that didn't look right. I'm old and senile and can't remember if this was normal or not, so I figured I better check...
