You shouldn`t have to sqeeze the ball each time. What year are the motors? I have an 01 ficht 200 and never prime the oil or the gas.

You can pay for oil changes instead. :?

Thanks.

Do you happen to have the part# for the stainless ones from halfpricemarine?

I need to replace the side through hulls(for side fishbox drains) and might as well do the floor drains also(original plastic). Where are you guys getting the fittings from.

Yes. Your local napa or carquest can also get them. I think Sierra makes them.

Make sure all the grounds are good.

Powerpack for that bank. It supplies spark to all three and ground all three for shut-off.(I had one with a bad internal ground that would not shut off three when you turned the key.) You can unplug the stator and do an ohms check. I have a manual for the specs somewhere, it may take me a while...

If you hit something at speed, its just going to break the gear housing instead.

What year evinrude do you have? If its premix, if the carb is not getting fuel and whats left in the bowl dries up, all that will be left is a small amount of premix. If its injected, the oil is injected after the carb but when you tilt motor at the end of the day, a vro system that bleeds...

I had this same motor/prop on a 77 204 CC. It did 54/55 mph w/lite load.

I would want a compression test done before condemming it to a bad cyl.
