Power Equipment & RV / Re: 1993 Merc issues getting up on plane
« Last post by JKEEN33 on July 02, 2025, 06:49:08 PM »
Thats an old black Max oil injected.  Owned Merc's since the 70's. Grew up in an outboard shop and have worked boat insurance claims for 27 years

My idea in order
1) Stator, that is likely what the "fire" was Merc ran a much hotter ignition back then that OMC
2) bad Coil.  Get welding gloves and removed on plug wire at a time until you find the bad coil
2)  Bad primer bulb or hose  Run it on a separate remote tank and get some fresh non Korn gas

I was reading the string wondering if anyone was going to say bad bulb. They will feel like they are full, but a small pinhole or crack will kill your power.

Stater... could be.. they have a high and a low.. not sure why yours would be working on the hose but not in the water tho if it is the stater.? I Just did one, went with the jet unit brand off eBay. Only a couple hours on it so far but seems to be working fine and fixed my intermittent spark issues. Really easy to swap a new one in.

The head of the Duckabush holds Elk. The last time I was up the Mt Jupiter trail I didnt see any Elk sign. I did see some Deer sign and the most Cougar sign Ive ever seen per mile in my life. Stay low in the drainages IMHO

Freshwater is open or at least what most people call freshwater.  Good fishing there too.  I am headed to fish Port Angeles tomorrow morning, and might make a run to Freshwater if the bite is slow where I will be at.

Ediz hook troll the point and beach by the CG station
Freshwater bay has a beach launch and will hold fish
CQ/ clallam Bay, fishing two minutes from the launch at Mason's.. which is now DFW owned so it's free.
I would not take a 14' boat with a 2.5 hp motor around the hook. Might want to stick to near shore Sekiu stuff.
