Thanks for all your help guys. The button on the side of the motor ended up being a starter switch. The guy I bought the outboard from said it was a kill switch. So thats one thing tooken care of. Today im going to drop the lower unit to see if it has extensions on the parts or what I need to...

Hello fellow boaters, I have a couple questions if anyone can help me regarding a 1975 Evinrude 25 hp outboard motor w/ long shaft that I picked up today. The 1st question is how do I shorten the shaft from long to short? The extension part makes it to long for my 1448 starcraft seascamp v-hull...

Thanks for all the info everyone. Here a some pics

Hello again fellow boaters. Today I took my 1963 starcraft seascamp for a leak test run and it looks like I have 2 leaks. One at the corner of the transome where the ridge rib meets the stern and one in the middle of the boat somewhere along the bottom rib. Any suggestions on how to seal them up?

Thanks for all the advice everyone, really appreciate it. I ended up rebuilding the carburetor, changed out all fuel lines, installed a inline fuel filter, and got it going. Took 2 hours to set the hi and low needles valves. But today I took my boat out in the delta for a test run. I had to...

Almost forgot, also what is the best way to attach to the transom?

It won't stay on, it seems like the fuel pump is not pumping the fuel at all. The glass bulb where the fuel filter is only fills up when...

Alright, I went to the boat store instead of the o'rielys (that was my first mistake) and got oem parts and they work beautifully. Now I have a new problem, my pull cord pulls but im not getting a spark or not turning over. Spark plugs look find, I don't know what to do, can I get some advice...

OK so here's my new problem; I have a 1960 Evinrude Fisherman 5.5. What size fuel connector should I be using on the motor side and the fuel tank side? And what size fuel line? I have one that was given to me brand new and its spraying out both sides. The connection's are a bit wobbly. Can...
