Enjoyed the cinema veritas scenes near the dock. The chaos of modern boating. Nice find on the switch. Intermittent problems can have you chasing your tail😢.
I recently been researching props. Funny how longer tubes create stern lift and shorter create bow lift. Tube flairs, holes, pitch etc. Funny how certain pitchs give you top end others low end. I swapped out my 11 X 14 alu. prop with a s.s. prop and personally experienced how the longer tube on the s.s. prop would lift the stern of my boat out the water almost creating drag if you will. Props are so important, i never knew. With technology comes change i guess. Great video btw, love your channel. You have helped me with my E25RCR, it was through your channel i figured out my evinrude was missing the o ring that seals the needle itself. Replaced it, idles perfectly!
Hey. Thanks ! Don't know if you caught the videos I did on Props. I'm no expert but I learned alot with the few props I had. Thanks again & Stay tuned!
Hey. Thanks for tuning in. Yeah, it's good and it's been mentioned a few times. But I prefer to take a different approach and under these circumstances, I just don't feel a few gallons of gas is going to do much, plus I'd have to put a floor in to keep the tank level, it's fairly steep with the v-hull up front. Those plates are extremely heavy. I don't know if they're steel or iron or what, but two of them weigh as much as a big marine battery! Thanks again & Stay Tuned !
Hey. Thanks for tuning in. Well when you build one outboard out of two old outboards that have been sitting around for years you have to take the good with the bad, it's not unusual, things get old and wear out. It comes with the territory! Thanks again & Stay Tuned !
Love the videos! Is there any chance you could make a video showing all of the basics of getting the throttle linkage timed correctly and the idle smooth? I know you’ve addressed this in videos in the past, but I can’t seem to find it now. I have a 1990 Evinrude 25 that has always given me some problems, and I believe that is due to my timing being off. I currently have it idling, but it’s idling higher than I’d like, and when I let off the throttle, it doesn’t drop back to idle very smoothly.
If I have a little engine that wont start I just give it very small shot of starting fluid. If it fires I know its fuel problem if it doesn't I know its something else. Works every time and hasn't harmed anything I've owned to date.
You live close to trains too, yeah me too its a pain in the ass,LOLL! Probably dont need trim tabs with that weight in the front try it steering will be much easier....
@@THISOLDOUTBOARD1 Only passenger trains here annoying at peak times no freight trains thank God,LOL! Really try removing them and leave the weight in front ...
Did you get my comment on the last video about my carb being off a 65 HP evenrude 3 cylinder it was the middle carb . It doesn't have the plastic top like yours .if you want the part number off of it I will send it to you tomorrow ☺️ top speed was 48 mph.
The wake off those wake boats. WATCH the wake as it goes across the lake. Where the wake starts white capping & every time a wake hits those certain spots & start white capping which should always be in the same place on the lake. Those are the BEST spots to catch fish. Take my word on THAT!! Its actually underwater points where it goes from deep water to shallow water & wakes always well up on those spots & white cap. I think the power of the water makes minnows tumble an also brings food up off the bottom of the lake. Take my word on it as those are thee best fishing spots!
Hey. Yeah, wow that's funny, I do it all the time. Comes from my old surfing daze. Hahaha! But I never marked the spots to fish them, I'll have to give it a try some time. Thanks again & Stay Tuned !
@@THISOLDOUTBOARD1 I have the 2000 25hp Johnson outboardwith similar problems,The answer turned out to be an airlock.I had to purge the air out all the way to the carb.It was sucking air at he back of the fuel connection on the outboard. Great vids (ManchesterUK)
Your problem with the boat wanting to rise is mainly due to the fact there's no lady in a bikini sitting up front, get one... but then again you may be getting a bigger problem, oh hell just forget about what I say 😄
I like it! Good video 👍
Thank you! 👍
👍 Nice Find Thank You ourboard Gods 🙏🫡
Hey. Thanks !
Great videos see you in the next one

Great video. I still think having fuel tank mobility is the best option, for changing motors and rebalancing the weight.

Catastrophic failure😂 love u
Hey. Thanks for tuning in!
I’ve changed a few of those switches, they take a beating over the years👍
Thanks again !
Enjoy following your build with this boat and engine but that thing seems to be like one problem after the next lol. Have a good one now.

I don't think you will get a much smoother ride than that that looked like relaxing
Hey. Yeah shes gettin there! Thanks again !

Hey. Thanks for tuning in. This may help. th-cam.com/video/cGmWMnw9nw4/w-d-xo.html. LMK Thanks !
@@THISOLDOUTBOARD1I believe that’s the one I was looking for, I appreciate it!
Can you tell me what model motor that is? I have one that looks similar but I can’t figure out what year it is. Mine is an E30 TEERM.
Hey. Thanks for tuning in! www.crowleymarine.com/evinrude/oem-parts/outboard/1994/e30teerm Mines a 93! Stay tuned !
Is that the beef motor you got on there looked like it? She's kind of temperamental
Yes! That's the Beef! Its a build from two old outboards that sat for years! Thanks again !
"i can't believe it.. I mean I can believe it" hahaha
it goes with the territory ! haha

Hey. Yeah the train horn makes it sound like they're doin 100 mph! Yeah you know me, I'll be screwing around with the trim tabs. Haha thanks again !

Hey there my friend in the USA. My stinger said kill switches are for girls. Best wishes to you all from Brisbane Queensland Australia 🇦🇺 ❤
Hahaha. Thanks !
It's the real-life saga for sure.
That switch being intermittent is very hard to find some times
Yeah Baby! Hahaha Thanks again !
Good thing about not being broke down you always have a a kicker motor
Thanks again !

No. I double checked, nothing about a 65 carb. But I'm good to go. I've got some 60-70 carbs. Thanks again !
You sure that the Keel hasen't been caved in on a reef or rock ?
Hey. Thanks for tuning in. Yes sir I'm sure. Thanks again & stay tuned

Barge Bite is what we call it when bass fishing! It's like they react to the wake as it splashes against the dock etc.
You may have an airlock in your fuel lines. A purge might help.
Got it. Thanks for tuning in!

Air bubbles in clear gas line
Hey. Thanks for Tuning in. Yeah I saw that, its just the primer pump line. It probably needs new o-rings too! Thanks again !
Good find
Hey Thanks for tuning in!
In that clear full line i see a lot of air bubbles your sucking in air from some where
Thanks for tuning in. Yeah I've got a bad habit of not pushing the knob closed.

Hahaha! Thanks for tuning in!
You should sell the front up and put gas in it
Maybe. Thanks for tuning in!
this motor is a royal pain in the A$$
Hey. Thanks for tuning in. It goes with the territory. Better to get the kinks out now! Hahaha Thanks again !
