I know this thread is a little old, but I have the same question about the wood transom going around the knee or behind it. Any help would be great thanks.

I like it nice idea. I really the shelfs on the garage door too. Did it come like that or did you do it.

So I want to thank everyone for their help. I got the engine purring like a kitten, with all of the advice that you guys gave me. I have one last question for now. How hot should the water be coming out of the pee hole. I have noticed that the water coming out is pretty hot, and me never...

Thank you again. I will be ordering one today. Thanks you have been such a help. I am sure I will be back with more questions.

Thank you very much, that is what I was thinking but just wanted some moral support. I don't have a tach. Do they make ones that I can just buy and attach when I am tunning or is it something that I will have to have on for good. Thanks again for all the resources you are providing.

No the linkage is fine. I checked that. I didn't have to use my hand to control the throttle. I just used the throttle on the carb to give it a little more gas when it was neutral because it wouldn't idle or start. But just a little movement on the throttle it started right up and idled...

I will post pics as soon as I can. I am having computer problems and am using a work computer right now. However I am pretty sure that it isn't an oil injected. I just got done take another good look and saw no oil reserve. However I am begging for the next piece of help. I want to start...

Ah thank you. Still new to this.

Do you have that link. I didn't see it on your post.

No I ordered the manual for it. I want to wait till I get it before I screw something up. I did check everything else and it looked good. I might just break down and take it to the shop. We will see.

I am not sure. I have never seen an oil injected so I am not sure what I am looking for. But I don't see anywhere on the engine that I could add oil. Does any one know if it is possible if the Johnson hookup on the gas tank could be effecting why it won't get going.

Ok thanks again for all you help. I will let you know how it turns out.

Awesome, Thank you very much. What does the oil injected mean? I am guessing it means there is a spot to put the oil seperate. I didn't see it. Any idea where it might be. This might be why it wasn't running either cause I was running pre mixed. Also looking at that chart to attached I...

So I picked up an 8 HP Mercury serial 0c112684. I can't find what year it is so if anyone knows a good website that would be great. Anyways I tried to get it started in a bucket and it would idle for about a minute and then stop. It would barely get up to a high enough idle to start pushing...

Thank you guys. Once I really got in there and was looking for what you guys suggested I found a sticker that stated it was a 2 cylinder 2 stroke. However now I am having other problems and will be posting a new thread. Your input would be greatly apperciated.

I bought an engine and have it all ready to start and realized I am not sure if it is a four stroke or two. I am guessing it is a two I can't find a seperate oil container anywhere. Is there a certain spot I should look and if it is a four and I run mix gas will it hurt the engine besides...

Awesome build. How heavy did all the wood make the boat, and has it affected the performance? Great Job.

Thank you, that helps a great deal.

I just bought a 1999 Mercury 8 HP 2 stroke. It has only about 10 hours on it. The guy I bought it from said he bought it new and then took it out twice and decided he needed a bigger one. He had it "winterized" and then stored it in a climate control storage. It looks brand new, no dirt or...
