I appreciate the advise guys! I will do just that, when it gets here I will take care of the COMPLETE rebuild and cleaning. Again, I appreciate the response to what seems like a dumb question!

I have acquired the new (used) carb for my evinrude that I have been looking for. I have ordered the rebuild kit and it's on the way. I have watched a video or two on line regarding the rebuild process, and noticed that one of the videos mentioned pulling out the plugs for proper clean-out. I...

If you didn't already know, your engine can be somewhat easily modified to a 35 hp. If you, like myself find yourself in need of the extra ponies, that is something to keep in mind. Boat looks great btw! Happy boating!

It depends on what HP and year , but I do know from my research if you are running a 1986-1994 20/25 HP all you are supposed to need is a new intake and carb for the corresponding year 30/35 carb. Some people have done it with a 25 hp intake and bore the hole and made it work that way, but the...

I stand corrected.....you guys are right 1980

I appreciate that offer johnny! I finally found out today what carb years would work for me. I have done a copious amount of research into this, and I have discovered that It works best on the late 80's into the early 90's 20/25/35 motors with through hub exhaust. I hate that you did not have...

Thank you for all the great advise!

I appreciate it! It does have nice clean lines, which is one of the main reasons I upgraded from my previous aluminium. It is a pretty fast hull, and it should really scream when I finish my 20-35HP engine modification.

I show that Model number to be a 1986.

The through hull fitting did not load last time lol.

through hull fitting for bilge pump, and wiring the new switch panel.

This is pictures when I picked it up. It was a diamond in the ruff, and is far from this now, but the build is continious as we learn what works for us and make modifications accordingly.

I came into my newest boat restoration over this past winter. I have had a good time learning and teaching my son over the process of the build thus far. It is a 1990 Tracker Guide V14 with a stock 1989 Evinrude 20 HP long shaft. I have replaced all the plywood floor throughout the boat and...

That is a very crafty Idea, and I may just do that considering this will be my first time rebuilding one. I am going to order the kit today.

I have installed a mini tach on my 89 Evinrude 20 hp and discovered that I too was over pitched. I purchased the motor with a 10x15 prop and re-pitched to a 10.5x11. I gained about 1k RPM at WOT. That being said you should have gained RPM aswell. Some considerations to take into account: was...

Well I don't, but I plan on taking note of the locations during disassembly. I have watched a video or five on it, so I feel confident that it should't be an issue. I just wanted to know what you experienced guys usually do.

according to the manual I should not exceed 5500 RPM at WOT. I am close enough not that it should be right after I complete the 20/25 to 35 hp mod I plan on finishing soon. My current issue is now the faulty fuel pump and trying to find the right 35 hp carb for the upgrade. Thanks again for all...

Does anyone have a 1989 Johnson/Evinrude carb that I could purchase? I am trying to do the HP conversion and having a hard time finding one.

Thanks guys for all the sound advise. I purchased a new 11 pitch prop and am getting much better RPM. I took it out yesterday for a fishing trip and I am running around 4800 rpm loaded heavy (3 adult men, cooler, fishing tackle, 2 AGM batteriess exc.) and I am about 5100-5200 with just me in the...
