Evinrude 25 hp problem
Hello,
I have a 1991 25hp Evinrude motor model E25REIE. It was purchased about two years ago on Ebay. It has run great up until this year. My family and I were fishing in Lake Lanier and we were getting into shallow water. The motor was not running. Before the foot drug bottom I tilted the motor up. We fished a while longer and I lowered the motor and cranked it up. The motor started like it wanted to go wide open but would cut out and sputter. Then feel like it wanted to go wide open then started cutting out and sputtering again. I thought it was an air leak in the fuel system. I did take the cover off and pumped the gas line bulb and saw gas leaking from the round thing that is part of the fuel pump where the gas line connects to the pump. Since then I have replaced the fuel pump, but it still does the same thing. Also I have replaced the gas line, gas tank, rebuilt the carburetor, bought new speak plugs. When I put the new speak plugs in it did seem to fix the problem. It ran wide open far about five hundred feet before it started cutting out and sputtering and doing the same old thing. Can anyone help? I want my fast motor back! Sincerely, Benjamin |

Hi Ben,
You might look for an old OMC mechanic with some gray in his hair. Most of the big boat dealerships are not interested in working on our old motors. I would try to get a good reference here for your area. -- Bill Kiene Kiene's Fly Shop Sacramento, CA www.kiene.com "Benjamin Ransum" wrote in message om...

Anyway, some things I'd look at, seeings how when you put new sparkplugs in it, and it helped would be electrical connections. But, it still sounds like a fuel delivery problem to me. Where in the area are you? |

I live in Lawrenceville. My motor seems to run fine until it travels about 500 feet then the trouble starts. The only thing I have not changed is the fuel lines inside the motor. What puzzles me is why it started so suddenly. My motor has the S.L.O.W. thing that limits RPMs when it gets hot, but the p hole is squirting water just as it always has. Plus it had been sitting for over an hour the day it started this. That really sounds like something to do with the throttle cable/timing set up. I'd suggest getting a good repair manual for that motor. Look at the Boat U.S. (I think it is) across from Sam's on Steve Reynolds Blvd. |

Except for the over rev part, sounds a lot like an experience I had years
ago with some bad gas(water was my guess). Get all the old fuel out and start over with fresh. It took me several trips to the mechanic and $$$, before we figured out the simple answer. Sometimes you can get lucky. "Benjamin Ransum" wrote in message om... Hello, I have a 1991 25hp Evinrude motor model E25REIE. It was purchased about two years ago on Ebay.

I tried the gas thing. I too thought it might be that.
