    Omg man thanks so much, perfect timing. My ‘86 90hp evinrude was running fine last week, now leaking gas from the lower carb holes when I prime it, so it will only run at high speed idle, at idle it dies. Your videos helped me totally rebuild my 1974 Evinrude 4hp, hoping for the same with the 90 lol :)

      the needle is stuck in it's seat, forcing all the fuel to get trapped in the idle circuit. 45 minute carb clean with a syringe and alcohol will fix you right up, and a new needle and seat of course

      @@ct1762 thank you so much, sincerely appreciated. My only worry is that since there’s 2 carbs I’ll need to sync them - only ever cleaned single carb engines. Going to buy the rebuild kit in the meantime and wait for Brandon’s video on the carbs, lol. I watched the VHS video he posted on the link n sync, so I think I should be able to tackle this.

    Thanks a ton!!! I just got a 1970 85hp that starts slow and I figured I need to check compression. All your steps shown will definitely help me although i wish the fuel pump and carb stuff was talked through too. This is my first boat engine I’ve ever gotten and going to put it on a 1959 Glass Craft I just got to restore too. Thank you again!

    You brought back good memories. I had that motor on an '87 Crestliner bowrider. My first and only boat. It always ran like a top. Excuse my ignorance but what does VRO stand for? Is that the oil injection system. Mine was oil injected. It never gave me problems. When i bought the boat, a friend suggested getting rid of the oil injection and run mixed gas directly. I didn't bother because it was working fine. The boat also had an onboard fuel tank. Great motor.

    Be carful with that tester. It’s Pittsburg from harbor freight and unfortunately (due to manufacturing purposes) you will always get a reading of 90 psi. When in fact it’s most likely much higher. Just some food for thought

  • @GreatLakes247
    @GreatLakes247 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Please stop using the Harbor Freight compression testers (or any critical precision tool for that matter). They commonly only show 90psi when in fact, it is higher. It is a good tool to bring for getting a good deal on an engine but not for accurate checks. My jet ski read 90 psi on both cylinders with it, then bought a good name brand and read 145psi on each cylinder. Big relief. Just throwing my 2 cents.
    Love the videos, they are very calming.

    Hi, watched a lot of your videos. I have a 71 Johnson 125 that I have rebuilt an few year ago. It runs great but it struggles to get above 4000 rpm’s. The manual say the power band is 4500-5500 max power at 5000. I am not sure if it’s the wrong prop for the boat a 71 Glastonbury v-163 or timing. When I timing while using the method where you just crank it at 26* it will not get above 3500, and advance screw is pretty much all the way in. If I back the screw till there is a few threads I can get it up to 4000. I am not sure if timing a 2 stroke is like a car where I can time it for max power. I would like to be able to get 5000 rpm’s out of, the prop I have now is 13” 19 much I don’t it would be all prop. Compression is 95 with a harbor freight tester on all cylinders. I’m kinda out of ideas thanks

      well, mine is at 90 and Im calling it good.
      However, Ive seen low hour motors from the early 1990's putting out 120- which is probably where they were new.
      110 I would still consider very good.
      With that said, most OMC enthusiast would say these cross flow V4's are good at 90. But both you and I have seen higher..

    • @MikeSmith-nu9wt
      @MikeSmith-nu9wt ปีที่แล้ว

      There dirty suckers when it comes to compression, the manufacturer recommended some ring size ran through your gas regularly ,now I also recommend that , if you can find it , because these motors were meant to run hard , if you run them around 2800 and idle alot it carbons up , I figures that out the hard way , three power heads replaced on mine cause I didn't like the compression , 1300 to 1800 dollars each time except one time they warrantied it , but I think they were throwing used power heads on it , so I finally did it myself ..it lasted 8 months and did the same thing , port side compression down 30 lbs on one cylinder , 45 on the other ..again she came apart , that's when I figured it out , it was all carboned up , but it was to late, I picked up a newer loper style 115 johnson my other one was a 88 evinrude spl cross fire . One heck of a difference in power ..

      First bogger motor? H A H A, oh you're funny.
      Here is the thing; Bigger motors are flipping heavy. Little ones are easier for me to pick up.
      And here are the good reasons:
      A V4 like this one, in good running/looking condition will bring you $600-800
      A 9.9 HP in the same condition will fetch that too, but cost a quarter of the repair price.
      It seems most people like small, easy to move, good on gas, economic engines they can tinker on. That not even mentioning the tool requirements.
      If I were fixing a motor to sell, and had to choose between fixing up a 30 HP or 115 HP, I would go for the 30 most of the time.

      the idle speed screw is on top, but you really need to follow the synch n link procedure to a T. i can tell this one isn't adjusted properly by the roller in the spark advance... too low but only a timing light will tell you where it needs to be. the idle timing is adjusted by the thumb wheel

    • @BrandonsGarage
      @BrandonsGarage  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Well, usually when I see an engine that wont idle, its A) low compression, or B) throttle cable not adjusted.
      If nobody has screwed with the linkage its usually fine.

    I'm surprised Brandon hasn't gotten a IR temp gun from Harbor Freight from how much you work on them.
    A torque stick for the V4 crossflow flywheel but no $25 IR temp gun?

    Hello from Australia Brandon! Just wondering if you know somewhere I can get a new or used bearing carrier for my 55ETL79C lower unit. I finally made the puller legs as I could not find them ANYWHERE and the carrier broke right at the o-ring. Thanks for bringing great videos…helped me a lot with my teardown

      Actually I cannot. These older Johnson basically don’t exist in Australia anymore. Everyone is going to 4 stroke. I just can’t see something as old as this not having a new lease on life so I have spent a lot of time taking it apart and repairing as much of the original parts as possible but I just have to replace certain things.

    At over $5 a gallon you cannot afford to run these anymore. Such a shame that there are so many great outboards out there that are unaffordable now. The new EFI 4 strokes are way better, even if they are more expensive to buy now vrs when 2 strokes were being sold 30 years ago new.

    Worst part about outboards is bad gas causing rubber fuel component death.
    You must replace all old rubber fuel lines, ALL OF THEM, use stihl brand hoses and submersible rated gas fuel line specifically. AND then you must check for air leaks, because clamps will not all clamp and there are other dodgy parts like plastic fuel line manifold splitters that crack and leak. ALL rubber lines, even the scavenging lines, choke lines, and vacuum lines. ALL OF THEM.
    Yes diaphragm too should be replaced. Your main thing is air leaks and fuel leaks, tiny leaks will wreck the normal smooth operating of all these cursed shottilly engineered outboards.
    REPLACE ANY HARD GASKET, check with fingernail, if you cant smush it, replace it so it can seal. Hard on hard surfaces DONT SEAL, so you have to check this with carb bowl seals and fuel pump seals.
    Your timing, and linkages and carbs are probably all right. the jets get clogged on carbs, dont replace them, clean them, then REPLACE ALL RUBBER FUEL LINES AND RUBBER FUEL PARTS
    THEN check for air leaks with a simple vaccuum gauge which those are cheap and you can rent them. When floats are up when gas is full in carburetor, you should be able to pressurize the system to 5 psi. Pressurize after bulb where line goes into tank, just where you put pressure in to check leaks. You can use stainless steel aircraft lock wire, to twist and seal very tight all of the connections. On my boat this is nessesary, the tank pickup barb is not standard, it doesnt clamp tight or evenly enough with stainless hose clamps, or zip ties, or plastic tooth clamps. You have to really cinch it tight with the stainless steel wire, twist it up tight. GO around hose twice then twist tight while pulling. This way is better than any type of clamp as far as sealing goes.
    Also, use a dab of silicone grease around the quick disconnect, those ALWAYS have the potential to leak. They want you to buy a brand new one every season and then, they have such bad quality parts, they leak and leave you stranded or pissed off that day as it wasted time and rescources getting out on the water.
    This is actually best advice, follow all of it, and you will have a good running motor.
    Replace all rubber fuel parts and or gaskets. Check air leaks, check hose clamps. Buy brand new proper size hose clamps, not ones that have been bent up. Not oversized ones either. Or use stainless lock wire, and get good at that.
    Its just about that simple.
