hello, I am looking for the best "hunt and find" process for troubleshooting my outboard. It is a 140hp Evinrude outboard . when running it sometimes would cut out and restart ok. ...any help would be appreciated
is there a place to get the specs or measurements for the original size and thickness of the wood that fits in the transom or is the best way to figure to clean out all the wood and measure the cavity ? is the thickness standard?
I have an 85 evinrude 140hp. This weekend I took it out to blow the cobwebs out as have been redoing floors and interior and has not been in water for over a year. While running I had intermittent electrical problems(I thought loose ground) and when the day was over when I got to the dock and...
I have a "new" gallon of quicksilver tcw3 that was in my brothers sho. he indicated it was about 10 years old but the kicker is the cap was not screwed on it was just loosly sitting on top. is it possible for this oil to "go bad"? I just converted a 85 140hp evinrude vro to pre-mix and don't...
My 1995 140hp evinrude is leaking out of the front of the unit a little and also when pump is engaged it pushes fluid up into the electric motor. the local shop price to rebuild is fairly expensive but I figured it is mostly O rings and the like and that their cost is mostly labor. Is this a...
OK so I believe I have really pulled a good one. sold a 1988 8hp evinrude this spring and gave the guy the service manual I had....cannot get ahold of him and today I was taking the lower unit off my 1990 E15RLESR 15 hp and the unit would not drop smooth so I went to get the manual and low and...
I am looking to rewire the dash components on my boat and assumed that the wiring diagram in my factory manual would show that cable and identify all the wires but it does not. is there a wiring diagram on line somewhere?
I have fiberglassed both sides of the plywood and have finally got the deck all screwed down and have a question. Does the plywood just need a 'scruff' sanding and wipe down for the outdoor carpet glue to adhere? or is there something special that needs to be done? thanks and on the sides of the...
I have an 93 lund. I am replacing the deck. I have a question about the carpeting. the back of the boat has 3 long panels with the middle one(over the gas tank) being removable. if the whole deck, less the middle section is carpeted and then the middle section is carpeted(wrapped then screwed...
I have an 88 8hp motor with a broken swivel bracket. E8RLCCS. Before I try to get the old one out I was wondering how difficult this job will be? does the lower unit need to be removed?any advice would be appreciated. I ordered a manual today but the sun is finally shining and I want to start on...
all my wires were disconnected, brother working on dad's old motor didn't write down what went where(thanks Bro) and he spliced the 2 wires off the trigger so now both wires are the same color...they should be the same left and right off trigger though or perhaps I could peel the shrink wrap off...
I was wondering if you need to glass both sides of the plywood for your deck? I was thinking(probably too much or wrongly) that the underside won't be getting wet so couldn't you just prime and paint with exterior paint or put a polyurethane on it to protect from condensation? In looking at the...
does anyone know the torque spec's for the flywheel nut on a 1977 merc 110 9.8 hp outboard and also is there an online wiring picture/guide for the electrical?? thanks
