    1980 115 inline-6 Prop Washer Qoestion:

    I was gifted a bronze/brass Quick Silver 48-314580A3-17 prop and I'm not sure about the washer that goes under the nut. I have the service manual, it illustrates a notched hub like my modern Solas. However the stepped Solas thrust washer fits better than the original one. Please check the...

    Power T&T Compatability: Johnson 1978 115hp on a 1987 110hp VRO

    Hello, will a 1978 115 power tilt & trim unit be compatible with a non-t&t 1987 110 VRO? Looking at the parts diagram the basic body (Manifold) and reservoir are the same part number, though the motors are different and other differences such as 2 or 3 wire setups and solenoid VS...

    1980-81 Mercury 115 Tower i-6 convert stock rectifier to regulated CDI?

    I ran the diagnostic ladder test on my '80-81 Mercury 115 Tower of Power and the rectifier failed the test. I understand the stock rectifier has no capacity to regulate the voltage and leads to shortened battery life due to frequent overcharging. The standard rectifier is the 3 post with 4...

    New floor: Do away with ski locker cover?

    Hi, I'm replacing the floor (glove) of my 1987 Smoker Craft with 3/4" Marine Plywood. Originally the floor had a wooden ski hatch cover with the spaced slats. Is it a poor decision to omit the cover? We don't ski and though there are some storage advantages for ropes, the oar etc. I realize it...

    B100 Engine Races when I push in the Choke:

    I thoroughly disassembled the carburetor and soaked it in Seafoam. I removed the main nozzle and used mono fishing line in the small holes. It's very clean, I'm not sure it was even dirty. There were really no traces of contaminants at all. Perhaps they dissolved if they existed. I checked the...

    B100 Lower assembled and bucket test:

    After finding the lost clevis pin and properly attaching the pin to the shift rod it was time to see how the motor ran. The good news: Engine starts great, no effort. Green Oil Pressure Light comes on, flickers at very low idle. Impeller working, good water flow. Fuel pump working. Thermostat...

    Oops: Dropped Shift Linkage Pin- Honda B100:

    1985 Blue & White 9.9 B100 Honda. I was feeling really good about replacing all of the water seals in the lower unit and successfully reattaching the foot. I even got the lower filled with gear oil. Then it happened! I was trying to insert the pin connecting the shift rod to the shift linkage...

    Honda B100 Propeller shaft Water Seal ?

    Hello, it's a 1985 Honda B100 9.9hp Sn. B100S-1700923. I have removed the lower unit to replace the seals due to water in the gear oil. The large O-ring is probably the culprit because it had stretched out a lot. While having everything apart I ordered the water seal (91251-935-004) that is...
