    Dead links to motor manuals

    I don't have any information about the website, but I do have a couple of manuals as pdfs. Maybe we can re-establish the library from the user community.

    Where can I find a wide blade flat screwdriver?

    Thanks for the tips. I did get it out by using my largest flat blade, about 3/16 inch, and a vice grip pliers on the shaft of the screwdriver for leverage. This way, I put my body weight into pressing the driver into the screw, preventing the blade from jumping out of the slot or stripping it...

    Where can I find a wide blade flat screwdriver?

    Where can I find a wide bladed flat screwdriver? Like, a 1/2 inch wide. I started to change the gear oil on my outboard today and the drain screws look like I should use a coin to open them with. One screw is so tight I can't loosen it with my normal, 3/16 wide screwdriver. If I lean on it...

    Help identify a part please

    I have seen someething this part as a flat bar bent into a C shape on my evinrude 1994 15 hp. Maybe the round bar you have was someone's self-made fix. In case you haven't seen this evinrude parts diagram database, it's a good one. shop2.evinrude.com From the diagram for 1975 25 HP (under...

    Outboard ran fine but now won't idle without stalling

    Thanks for the helpful response. I did take it to a marine mechanic who confirmed that it is a carb issue. He also mentioned that I need new fuel line and primer bulb due to "new ethanol" issues. Not sure what that means but will probably get that done , too.

    Outboard ran fine but now won't idle without stalling

    Can anybody identify what's wrong with my motor? I have a 40 hp Yamaha 2-stroke with remote controls. I was out on the lake yesterday and had just finished a 15 minute run at full throttle, everything seemed OK. I slowed down to idle to make a turn, then when I applied throttle again the motor...

    Laptop question

    The specs for that laptop are decent. I'd be wary of buying from circuitcity as they have had recent financial troubles. The good news is that for $700 your sister will have the choice of many, many laptops. I have been buying Dell laptops at work for years and they have been reliable. I...

    Lowe 1648 project

    At the higher level, I'd have to build up above the bench seat about 6 - 8 inches. The existing livewell is basically just an aluminum box with hinged lid. To raise its sides, I'd probably have to cut out the top opening about an inch all around, then build another 6 - 8 inches of wall on all...

    I appreciate the feedback on stability. I have been on the existing front deck would have to sit on the seat to ride out waves from passing ski boats, but stability in calm water was never an issue. BTW, I'm 6'-4" and 225. And you reminded me of one of the original goals of my project - to...
