2000 Johnson 25 Hp - Tear Down Assessing the Situation

[@Showmethefish]

I learned working with a motorcycle mechanic that small hammer impact driver to break the boats loose works great especially on aluminum....just sayen...

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey. Thanks for watching and commenting. Yes, they work great on them, but a motorcycle doesn't spend most of its life in/on the water. Much different! Really appreciate it. Stay tuned !

I decided to make another video after concerning the massive failure of the well used basket case 2003 25hp I got as a parts motor that I may try and resurrect.Take a look at the carnage if your bored.May video more of what I may do.

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey. Ok. Thanks again !

Sure hope Santa Outboard will bring you that HF electric impact gun and OMC puller for Christmas! I would definitely check the rectifier diodes and alternator windings... The burned red lead is for the rectifier output, and the yellow/red lead connects to the shift switch on the right side, that switch completes the ground side of the solenoid when it is in neutral...Perhaps someone swapped the leads and created a dead short. At this point, I would pull the powerhead and gearcase to do a complete job on this bugger, it is worth it...Once the powerhead is off, it will be easier to access/heat the water cover screws. I'm sure it needs a new water pump, the driveshaft splines lubed, and the inner exhaust tube grommet replaced. This job is gonna be all about the details, and all the little pieces/parts that will be needed to resurrect this thing. These powerheads/gearcases are fairly rugged, but I would certainly drain the gear lube before going much farther to make sure the lower unit is OK.

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hahaha. I was just thinking about you not five minutes ago. Crazy Right. Actually the pump/impellar are in great shape and it's pumping water great too. Thank You Outboard Gods. Hahaha. I hope it was just a short that burned the wire, I have one on order, should be here tomorrow. We'll find out! The splines are lubed and the Gear case has been on for two days now, just need to do the oil change. Ok I'm giving up to information. Hahaha Keep in mind I'm a few days ahead of what your watching. You Hit the Nail on the Head about Details and parts and pieces ! That's for Sure. Thanks as always. Stay tuned !

What roughly going price for a 80’s 25 Evinrude outboard motor. A general expected price What was the step cleaner that clean the brass.

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey. It seems to be a little different depending on where you live, and the time of year and the competition. Roughly I would say 7-9 hundred depending on condition. Thanks

[@johnbladykas4454]

Interesting

[@AmericanConstellation]

It was the ring you pulled off at around 6:20 on this video that was a pain in my ass on my 35. That ring moves and the wires would break and burn up all the time! A shit design! Evinrude flat out told me it was a lemon! WTF?

Hey Captain Mayhem , just got back from the outboard meet and it was a blast ! Bought a few Martins and a really nice A-75 Johnson 1935 4.5 hp for next to nothing . I see your hard at it and ya know the 1/4 drive sockets are thinner walled ! Break down and buy a 1/4 impacked ! Lol

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

[@dinacaldwell7522]

If I may, I would like to recommend you obtain an impact driver. I have an old school one but with stubborn screws and bolts after you spray them it is a miracle worker. Turns about 1/8 of a turn every time you hit it with a hammer. Far less knuckle busting and strips or even breaks from twist offs. They aren't expensive and you can get one on Amazon. I had a guy telling me he had tried everything to get the oil drain screw off an old outboard. I took it over there and with three smacks of a hammer opened it right up.

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey. Haven't heard from you in awhile. And, Yes you may. Your not the first. Trust me. I've been through 3-4 of them and still have the last one I bought. It's a POS. I realize now, (in this video), you are not referring to heavy corroded bolts like most people comment about but the screws on the pilot ring that I gently tapped. Correct? Anyway, I usually get the comments when I'm working on frozen corroded bolts and the impact driver is no match for Florida corrosion. Luckily that wasnt the case here. And I appreciate your input. And Yes, could have used an Impact driver but didn't need one. Key word here, "Impact". Dont want to "smack" that thing to hard and risk breaking/cracking the Ring. Really appreciate You Watching and Commenting. Don't be such a stranger. Stay tuned !

[@dinacaldwell7522]
