Use the best snug fitting screwdriver to prevent problems. Keep new seals on hand, I buy a 6 pack at a time. They are crush washers, usually only good for a time or two, any question - replace them. Some replace them every time, your choice. Keep spares!
Somewhat. The only change yes. I have to add oil to my reserve. My motor is oil injected so it pulls from the reserve and mixes it with my gas automatically. I just have to make sure there is always oil in the reserve tank. This isn’t the case with all motors though.
@@PrestigeWorldwideFishing quickest response ever👊🏽 screw looks good, threads look good it just won’t catch to start tightening. Nothing looks stripped. One screw keeping me off the water😂🤣 story of my life!!!
@@PrestigeWorldwideFishing I always try that seconds before hitting with a hammer and then saying I’m gonna sell it…we must’ve went to the same marine mechanics institute😂🤣😂thanks anyway. Great video btw!!!
Hey bro, I just bgt a boat with 00' merc 90 2 stroke. Trouble starting, crank np, firing up hard. After fishing nd moving same problem. Bogging when finally starting, runs good when running up lake. Ne ideas wld b appreciated..
Sounds like fuel issue. I would change the fuel lines, fuel filter and spark plugs. Also, make sure you are only running non-ethanol gas. Probably wouldn’t hurt to run a couple cans of seafoam through it to clean out all the carbon deposits. Do seafoam after you have changed the lines. Good luck and let me know if that helps. If you’ve seen my “voltage regulator” video, I have a similar problem, but mine doesn’t seem to be fuel related.
I don’t know for sure, but my guess is either should work. The 90 high performance is typically for bigger motors because they are going to run hotter.
I have the same motor and I'm going to change the oil tomorrow while the boat is docked in my slip. Tricky thing is that the boat is in the water, But the motor when tilted up is out of the water and I have access to the drain plug. So hopefully everything goes smoothly and I'm able to change the oil as the boat sits in the water lol 🤞🤞
I'm having same problem as one of your subscribers.I cant get any more in it and its not coming out of the vent.I squeezed in about a half of quart so far and cant get anymore in but it's not coming out of the vent..
You may need to attach a new quart of oil. At least on mine that straw isn’t very long and once it loses suction it won’t pull oil through. Once it’s full it will come out vent, it doesn’t have anywhere else to go
Lots of options on Amazon. Not sure what your motor is but here is a starting point www.amazon.com/Washers-Compatible-Mercury-Outboards-Mercruiser/dp/B0C27LTPG2/ref=mp_s_a_1_5?crid=3AD6GQJC4193B&keywords=mercury+lower+unit+oil+seal&qid=1693017686&sprefix=lower+unit+oil+seal%2Caps%2C146&sr=8-5
