I love watching a guy that really knows what he's doing, and makes it look easy.
Amen to that.
Props to you for being a quality content creator! Most youtubers would try to make a 20 video long series out of these 8 motors! Thank you for what you do!
Well said.
The military ought to hire you to be their boat guy. It would probably save a lot of money. Thanks for the video and God bless.
As if the military has any interest in saving tax dollars..🙄
Nah, they have a cycle life and get replaced working or not.
military save money???
@@johnwren3976 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 - TRUTH!!
Those are too old engines. Maybe usable for practice or blowing them up
the only mech polite enough to give his other outboards a joyride.
👍
Yeayyy I’m so glad your back
I Second that
Yes we are. Big time. Love the crappy jard 😅 keep vids comming 💚
What happend ?
@@Pimpdaddy69420 he was abducted whilst on holiday, his family had to pay a ransom. Glad he’s back safe.
I third that
I would watch longer versions of these being repaired..I know editing takes a long time..
Great Videos!!! I'm a 34 year Johnson & Evinrude tech specializing in small motors from 2 to 50 h.p.. I love everything about them! Good to see someone else taking up the cause! Two stroke motors especially J. & E. motors, are NUMBER ONE!!!!!
Can't beat those 80s-90s johnny-rude twin 2 strokes; good job.
Spot on 👍
Dude where have you been all this time 😂
It was such a pleasure working with you to fix all of these engines. Highly recommend to anyone looking for boat engine repair!! Amazing work on these engines, they performed flawlessly for training! Thank you so much for all your work and attention to detail! I have another new to us engine for you to look at...
Brother allot of us love your channel don't quit.
Great job!! We used those for training and they worked flawlessly! Thanks so much for what you do!
Great to see you again!!...watching you work on engines is like watching a surgeon operate...many thanks
Truly awesome - masterly produced and edited. Fixing a carb prob ON THE WATER was highlight of overall brilliant mechanics - thanks Boat Guy!
you have a surprisingly large amount of knowledge for your age !!!!!! I wish there were more like you!!
sharing what you're sure of without claming to know what you dont yet know
48 years in the buiz for a living plus a little racing and your work cought my eye keep up the good work!!!!
Nice to see you get 7/8 fully working! A 55 hp outboard ran on a handle must feel pretty lively!
I'd like to comment on the condition of those engines - both before and after the fabulous repairs. I organize and run a training for the Naval Sea Cadets that involves a lot of boating. In years past, we have spent nearly half the "training time" trying to get our motors running. Not this year. The engines were in superb condition and greatly contributed to the best training we've run in the last 7 or 8 years!
You are a heck of a boat motor mechanic and boat restoration guy! Props to you brother!!
So helpful. Thanks my man. Never seen an "on water" carb pull. Your confidence is inspiring.
I am a born tinkerer and love to watch these videos. So jealous of your knowledge and expertise!!! Just love the idea of bringing a lost cause back to life, just amazing, keep the great content coming.
I do not know if you were formally trained as a boat engine mechanic, but you can repair anything with boats and boat engines, great content and learning videos.
I notice they are all 2 stroke engines, sometimes the old school technology works the best.
And they were made by OMC (Johnson/Evinrude)
well i mean all these engines were replaced with newer engines soooo
@@chikendagr8994 it is the government soooo lmao
@@chikendagr8994 people think old = less reliable. It’s not the case a lot of the time. A lot of new things are bought when they aren’t needed at all…
@@nabox1435 I mean there is some truth to it. Older stuff has more hours, which makes them less reliable than new stuff, which usually has less hours. Also now all the major outboard brands are all reliable, where 30 years ago you had the reliable and the unreliable brands.
I've watched all of your videos and you have literally taught me everything I know and didn't know about these engines. Thanks mate. Downunder Melbourne Australia.
What a gift you have! Thanks for sharing your expertise with us. What looks so easy for you to do, is so complicated and confusing to most of us. Wow!
Its motivating seeing your skill and knowledge man! seriously awesome!
You are talented and fearless! Hey I know that you tune a lot of carbs. But for the rest of us, carbs are hard! Maybe in a future episode, you could do like a full tour of the different types of carbs, their components, and what is most likely to go wrong. Thanks so much. The 8 outboards has been my favorite episode yet!
I really missed your videos. I'm glad you're back in town.
Love all your videos, one of the best channels on CZcams. Reminds me of when I was a boy in Wisconsin buying used outboards and fixing them with my father.
Yoooooooooo! Make a video. People never get tired of used engine revival videos.... problem solving from beginning to end, fuel, electric, mechanical. Love your content, really hoping you're not giving it up.
Hope all is well, Merry Christmas to you and your family.... and Happy New Year to you.
I like hearing what you paid for the motors and then how much it cost you in time and money to repair. You make it look so easy. Now the engines just need new paint jobs and decals.
Dude im from maine and I love your channel. I love watching you fix this stuff. Im addicted to your videos and want to bring back some motors like this. Keep em coming
Been missing your videos!! Glad you’re back!
Loved working on these..we had 30 Johnson/Evenrude 40s in the mid 70s for boat patrols on the Belize Guatemalalan Border...must have totally rebuilt every one of them in 8 months..they had a hard life...some sunk in the river..some seized due to lack of oil...smashed from hitting sunken debris....loved working on them...
Would love to get some insight into the financials! How much you can buy them for, what your time/labor (not to mention knowledge) costs, and how much you could potentially sell them for.
Thanks for sharing!
Glad your back - excellent video, didn't think those locked-up were salvageable, yet run as good & strong as they did, including idle !!! 😁
Hey TBGuy, we've sent out search parties to look for you. Glad you're okay. Look forward to all your content. Try to not make us wait so long between videos. You know how many people wish they had 214,000 subs? Thanks again. You've taught me a ton.
The best mechanic I’ve ever seen.
I want him on any boat I own, stinking repairs a carb out on the water.
I woulda dropped it in for sure
he rebuilt one carb on a expanded metal table.........I lose parts in a box! LOL
Just unbolt the engine and drop that fucker in the lake/ river lol I hate unreliable boat motors
By a rebuild kit and READ THE F'N directions! Easy
Love to der your videos man, I also bought two outboards from the dutch militarie last month. One ran great but I was such a fool for not looking under the hood of the other one when I bought it. It missed almost every part that could be removed. But is has been a good lesson for me
OMG you fixed all of those beautiful motors! Just found how amazing you have done this video so simple and to the point! Actually, most of 2 stroke motors really easy to do their works just need to know the fundamental elements for the motors, and those 2 strokes could run like a charm!
OMG? No, OMC!
I wanna seee some 150 plus engines from the early 2k's
I wonder how much he picked those up for vs. what he can get for them now. 🤔
Thank you for the video! So glad to see you post one again!
So glad you back keep up the awsome work
I’m not a boat guy and not sure why this even popped up, but I totally enjoyed the video and will definitely blame you if I suddenly decide to buy a boat! LoL
Can you go to the auctions I love those kinds of videos
You are incredible. Keep these videos going... they help me to build false DIY confidence when working on boat engines!
Great content. I graduated from Charlotte high school. Punta Gorda Florida. Sophomore junior and senior year’s multiple hours in the marine mechanics class. Your videos bring back old memories.
Thanks. Do you “mess” with remote start (I mean, electrically started from conning station away from the engine) and remote steering (cable or pushrod)?
What happened to you?! No new uploads. Hope your doing well man!
Glad your back too love your boat videos. I’m restoring a 1979 proline flat back. Love watching your videos. Keep up the good work.
Nice video always enjoy seeing you take old outboards and make them run like new.. And it’s good your back
Where can I buy one of your motors? I’m really interested in a 35
"You're a wizard, Harry!"
Sooo happy you’re back really missed your vids.
I was so happy to see you posted a new video! Always great content here!
Where have you been
Shit!! Wish I was that mechanically inclined. Nice job! I have an Evinrude 8, and a old Evinrude 15 that need this done to them. But this helps. I mean I'll try it. Lol.
Absolutely love watching your videos. You make it look so easy. Thanks for sharing.
I just found your channel wow, I have a 1967 20 hp johnson that has been giving me a fit to get it working right under a load use to i could start it up and run it in a plastic drum now it want even start up maybe if i keep watching your channel maybe some things will help get it to were i can fish again and enjoy it and not worry about my motor not working great job on those motors.
I remember the story u posted of a little boat when’s that coming out?
V
Military surplus is actually legit because motor-T guys whole job is maintenance
You'd be surprised what kinda janky shit falls through the cracks
Glad your back love watching you fix and tinker on those OB love the boat projects more more more
I always love your videos. You make it seem so easy to work on these outboards.
Gonna paint my Merc 115 in random matte colors and have a MilSpec Pontoon.

Sounds pretty cool
Mil spec is the ONLY way to go!!
Mercedes-benz 115 pontoon?

What are you using in your ultrasonic cleaner?
Ultrasonic detergent containing Sodium Metasilicate Pentahydrate! You Will find that in the store that sells the ultrasonic cleaner ☺️
@@chrisbjorlin2549 we use grade B water and vinegar white 50/50 mix I'm the military to clean stuff air and 02 clean related.
I’ve got the same ultra sonic. dawn purple detergent is also used a lot.
Amazing!! I loved your video!! Everything looked easy but takes a lot of effort !!
Good to see you back in action. Favorite boating channel.
I wish I could bring my motor to you lol.
What kind of prop was that on the 55hp?
Some sort of weed less jet drive
Johnson Enforcer with a DuraJet.
@@jetboatingbc6192 Johnson enforcer lol
