How much time did it take to swap out the steering system?

Great mech video bro just bought a boat and this motor happened to be on it

Any updates on this motor? I have two 225 carbed, 1997 and 1998 that I'm looking to rebuild, would be great to see what you had to go through on this motor and if it's all worth it in the end.. thanks & good luck!

Does a new Suzuki have a grounding strap? Explain the function.

😂

I have a 20 yr old seastar system. Recently I lost steering to starboard. Steering to port works as should. I bled the system 3 times. I was able to remove alot of air. Steering to starboard began working. I have one issue still. When turning to starboard the engine will reach full stop but the wheel will continue to turn. If all the air has been removed and there are no visible leaks do you think there is a valve issue in the helm?

Awesome work and a great conscience, I appreciate you Sir, and subscribed as well due to that.

You would have found that by doing a pressure and volume. Looks like you guys do too much guessing is it this or is it that ?

Why can't you test fuel pressure AND volume. BOTH are critical.. If both test were performed you would know. Removing the fuel pump and LOOKING at can't tell you if it's working correctly, that can only be determined while its doing its job.(running)

Hi i have a mercury outboard 125 2000 i took water over the transom the trim went up and stayed on had to disconnect the battery to stop it work fine hour later any help would be appreciated sir

Thanks for the info

this is why i dont take my boat to anybody.. unless i know they know what they are doing.. you get charged for all kinds of shit you never even needed its a joke.. and its not the customers fault.. mechanics work ass backwards. a 20 dollar part and 100 in labor to change a hose turns into a 500 to 600 on shit that wasnt even needed. then places are like why arent people ever bringing their boats back to us... i wonder why.

Good call dude. I was watching this video in the shop at home after work ... Only half paying attention to what I was working on and half to the video. My first thought was, I would've don't a vacuum test to see what the line had for vacuum and then pinched it off to see what it could pull to check the lift pump. I kept watching to the end of the video and was impressed, good find man. It's very easy in a situation like that to overcomplicate the problem when it's often something simple. Even better not letting ego out pride hey in the way of fixing something and not having it come back

I’m getting smoke from the central hole from a mercury 20hp what can it be?

New subscriber, just wondering where abouts you guys are located, great video and always highlights assume nothing when handing over jobs as its easy to overlook the simple stuff. Cheers Garry

Must have given up

That’s it?

Any updates on this?

You need to do more videos

Thanks for the video, I have suzuki 30 hp year 2019, she starts easiliy works well below 3000rpm. After running 5 minutes over 4000 rpm she starts bogging. Mechanics couldn't find a problem. Can you give me an advice?

I love troubleshooting videos. I like to see people go through the process of solving problem.

Background music is annoying!

I have a 1993 evinrude 150 and I have to pump the ball to keep it on pad. If not it’ll die. What’s the issue?

Awesome video a lot of great information. I have 2 questions should the steering wheel stop when the motor moves all the way in one direction or another? Do you have to change the hoses when going from Baystar to Seastar? Did you do it due to larger lines for Seastar or are rubber ones just better than the older kinda stiff hoses? Thanks!

What the differece in what you took off vs the one you installed? Both were hydraulic ?

Great video! When you install the nut that pulls the slack out, do you tighten hand tighten and lock down or tighten with channel locks (more snug)? Also is the washer (or may have been 2) necessary that fits beside that nut?

Thx for the clip!

I have an 06 115 OptiMax and I installed a fuel water separator on it and I would say about a month or so after putting it on my motor I started having problems with the primer bulb going flat so I changed the bulb and got rid of all the old gray line the previous owner put on it and it did the same thing so I bypassed the fuel water separator and ran my boat again and had no issues with it. I was told by a couple people on a Mercury forum that motor doesn’t need that filter because it’s too restrictive on the motor and I still can’t believe it was that.

Lol Uh, you think it's probably the impeller? This was actually hilarious lol

I just roll the dice and then bring it to yall to fix, lol.

We had the same problem on the fuel line on our 125 HP Merc, the inner lining collapsed and starved the motor, we couldn't even get onto the plane.

Fuel line? I have a habit from model planes. I dont leave gas in the tank overnight. Just like a chainsaw, i pour or drain it back, and run the carburetor dry. My fuel line comes from the auto parts store and i change it periodically.

I seam to have that problem with my boat can't load it on the trailer no power

Good work dude! Honesty is EVERYTHING!

i once bought an only 8 yr old WaveRunner.. with super low hours because it sat most of the time.. The guy had it at 4 different shops because it would run fine when started up and idle..or low rpm.. but it would just Bog down and Die when he'd take it out and try to run it at speed... he was just fed up with it.. so he only charged me $1800 for it ( book value was $3600 minimum) The thing looked Brand spankin new for 8 yrs old!! I immediately went home and did a minor tune up, Plugs, Fresh gas, checked wire and coil.. but noticed the old grey fuel line... Immediately changed that. the ski was 60+ mph from that moment on!!! Rode it all summer with no issues, and sold it that fall for $3600. why nobody ever checked or suspected those fuel lines was beyond me... they were known for this issue. great videos!! keep em coming ands great work!!

What fuel line did you use? Can you post a link! Looking to upgrade my fuel line as I am having the same problem with bogging

um muffs anyone? Shop running a motor without water

thank you so much for this. I have a problem with a 115hp Evinrude EFI doing the same thing and will see if this solves the problem..... Thanks again!!!!

Nothing better than an honest mechanic that actually can admit if he did something in error. Appreciate the vid. You kick ass

Meqnwhile you are going to charge the customer an arm and a leg for all that unnecessary work you guys did

Did he say granddad’s boat who are these people hands-down the coolest granddad in the world

Mind surging

Damn, check out that ranger in the back ground.

Whover invented that type of hose should be thrown in jail...for life!!

Life jackets,helmets,safety boat ?, can anyone swim?

I’ve a 1989 force F5 150hp, cylinder #4 has no compression, any ideas of whether I should buy a new cylinder or new engine?

Love the honesty brother. Not enough of that out there

She scoots.

I still have the scars from the headers on my legs My case-454 chevy, no blower. My job was holding the 2 -4 barrels open. Blew the jet drive 3x. The girls got the boat ride on 4 july. Great weekend. The party got real once the boat started. None of us died somehow.

How 2 go 100 miles per hour easier , Eliminator 19 or 21 ft Daytona Jet Boat with 1000/1250 hp & u will be 115 / 125 . Wear ur Diapers as u will Shit your selves
