I thought about that!! will def keep an eye out and replace when damaged! good tip! maybe I could add a cloth or bumper of sorts!!!

@@gdamtbnms a pool noodle may do the job

I like adding kill switches! lol but yes tried and true choke to kill! Thanks for commenting!!

I have a video on installing a kill switch!! or you can pull the choke to choke it out, or in this motors case, my set screw was low enough where I would throttle it down so low it would stall :)

Use the choke to turn it off!!!

@@Alvc4go I did mention that! lol

Gunna try that!! Thanks for watching!!!

@@gdamtbnms where your cut bolt heads are dont hit them with a drift to much if they don't move as you will expand them outwardly, ive done a few omc outboards the bolts are stainless even though not high grade so drilling them needs a cobolt bit, but try this heat each one without getting to hot and spray to cool with penetration fluid, i actually used to use eucalyptus oil as well and keep repeating a few times, give the casting a little tap but not to hard in between, but next time try welding a nut to the crappy bolt, if it turns and then it's seized stop, heat it cool with your wd40 or whatever then screw back in and keep repeating, this has worked everytime for me 👍

@@mezame1626 I will 100% try this!! Thank you so very much!!!!

Give me til tomorrow I’ll get you one!!

Not a long shot at all… basically just use a rubber line that is the same or a bit bigger diameter…

I did not use a fitting cause I can’t find an original anywhere!

Long story short just run a rubber hose directly to the carb inlet

lol I did! I swear! I will pull the lower! Even though I did the water pump and the splines should have fresh grease. I’m getting this thing off if I have to saw zall through it!!! Did you ever try burr outs? That’s my next step

“Now that daddy took the t-bird awaaaaayyyyy”

DUDE youre a freaking legend!! thank you!! not on a yamaha. Evinrude yes. I have a big 30 hp long shaft Im working on to turn into a tiller motor. only worked on 1 yamaha in my life lol

Stay after it. Not many are working on the older motors. Your videos will definitely help people gain confidence in taking them apart, repair and rebuild. See ya on Round Valley!

Hell yeah!

Just happy to help my man!!

Thanks big buy!! Now if you could donate one of those 80-90s 25hp powerheads to me We can be in business!! lol

@@gdamtbnms I have a complete engine I rebuilt the powerhead three years back an Evinrude 28HP Electric start L/S never put it back together,HA! Someday!!!!

ok Ive heard this before.. first make sure your spring isnt broken!! 2nd... MAKE SURE your spring is in the notch!! if its caught in between the metal it wont spring like you're saying! Wish I could help you in person! keep trying! or maybe pick a new on on ebay??

Excellent advice!! Thanks for watching and commenting!!

wish i had a torch :( lol

@@gdamtbnms you don't have a torch with all that work you do? come on! Hahaha

@@THISOLDOUTBOARD1 I have the cute little blue ones!! lol not sure if it’s hot enough to bend craftsmen?!!

dont worry about the diameter just make sure the hose fit around the nipple properly :)

not sure... Should be easy to come by!

@gdamtbnms I'd figure it's easy to come by just don't want to pull power head again just did the water jacket gasket and thermostat

@@sentuardude8647 I would agree! Run it and if you have issues I doubt you will, then dig into it again

sure!! lets start with the basics! check you grounds and make sure you have spark! get it running and we can work on water pump

it’s a 74-78 Johnson seahorse I tried to get it running but I can only get it to pop

When I put the power head back on and connected the power modules I forgot how it came off so I figure I have it all backwards would that matter?

@@cristianbecerra8935 yeah those coils have to be grounded in a certain way. I believe I hooked up coils on my read 9.9 in my videos. Check to make sure you have the right w Spark plug wires on the correct plug. I would guess you have a missing ground or mixed up the wires

Awesome you have a video on that I’ll check it out I used your video on removing the power head very informative and thanks for your time

Good evening sir!! This would be a 1988 25hp evinrude shortshaft.! E25RCCA Thanks for watching!

You're most welcome

Not on this type of design.. I do know that there are 2 types of wiring connectors for these coils though

Glad it helped!

every video I watch has the 3 posts lol

@@gdamtbnms yeah thats what i mean

@@gdamtbnms so this way im doing it now doesn't matter which solenoid i use or a relay would do the same thing as the solenoid does if i used a relay box

good luck!

@@gdamtbnms it worked but had to keep it pressed in to keep it turned off so im just touching the wire from the solenoid to the red post on the battery and i have a gas shut off valve on plus have to unplug the carburetor bowl solenoid so it doesn't drain the battery leaving it plugged in. It works though and idles i have to finish mounting the engine to the frame before hooking up the drive belt it would help me if i had the original wire harness to this 40h777 craftsman/briggs engine. The ignition solenoid is working as the key switch so i just have a red wire to start it up and the black wire to hold to the crankcase to shut it off so im gonna hook up a switch to the ground wire. I couldn't get the cheap muffler that came with the 40h777 engine to fit on so I'll have to cut it a little on either side of the hole then weld it on the pipes i know those type of mufflers come off of most single cylinder engines oh well

@@Mike-su8si sounds good! Keep me posted!

thank god for good translate!! My dude said terrible sound!! lol why does everyone hate the beeping in the background?? lol

gracias para tu comentario!!

That plastic piece that connects (i believe this is what you are refering to) can wear over time. It screws off. I would try to get a new one that fits tightly over the tiny ball mount

Thanks also do i have to take the lower unit out first before the power head? Or can i start from top to bottom?

@@yoboimanny6111 you don’t have to take the Lower Unit off. I was just doing a total overhaul, so I took mine off. You could start with the powerhead and just take that off on its own.

@@yoboimanny6111 thanks for commenting and watching. Any questions as your project goes on feel free to ask.

always start at 1 and 1/2!! Now, VERY rarely, some 15hp carbs or some years take 4... but ive never seen it!! 1-1/2 and you should be good there!!

​@gdamtbnms I appreciate man I can't seem to find the sweet spot but I will try this out!!!

@@spamisgrinding2948 if it won’t idle at all at 1-1/2 something else is wrong

haha Glad I could help!!! Thanks for the comment!

Thank you so much!! Youre very welcome

Thanks for watching and commenting!!!

I wish I knew who that was!! Haha thanks for commenting!!

@@gdamtbnms Look it up he was a fake who pretend to move objects with mind power

douche canoe!! Love that lol Nah man! TRUST ME!! II TRIED EVERYTHING!! the space in between the nut and the powerhead is ZERO! i have swivel sockets, i got close with a angled wrench but it wasnt deep enough!

haha! I appreciate you my dude! YES PILOT HOLE! lol

You're welcome!

lol THANK YOU! trying!

1982

Glad it helped

you actually do not need to take the lower unit off. i did cause I was doing other work to it.

NEVER!! lol thanks for commenting!

its tricky. you have to take it out of there. it does come out. sorry im not much help here

some people drill a hole through the cowling... i wouldnt recommend

I took my latch off and loosened the 3 shock mounts

I ended up taking the whole engine out, not as hard as it seems. She’s running cool again.

Thanks 👍

its possible.. I would consider changing the filters and just putting the original fluid back!

@gdamtbnms ..put new ..correct fluid for the Trans back in..don't add supplements..or additives..Dodge transmission are finicky

yes sir!! thanks for commenting!

Thanks for watching!!

yes! this was an old video!! Ive been better! thanks for watching and commenting!!
