    05 Merc 125 help please

    I finally got it tore down and here is what I found. The wrist pin is in good shape no signs of abnormal wear. The reed valve on that cylinder shows damage but I'm sure that was from the piston coming apart. It sucks that this engine doesn't have a removable head. The cylinder could be...

    Always ran Pennzoil and with the 26p Laser II I ran it would spin about 5100 rpm at WOT. It had to be that something happened to the carb on that cylinder. The other 3 cylinders look brand new still. I still see the crosshatching on them.

    Well the Lower seems to be welded to the mid section. I know this should be easy but it will not budge. I've taken a wood block and a hammer to tap on it but no luck. I don't want to beat the crap out of my lower trying to remove it. Any tips from the pros?

    I can rotate the engine backwards for a bit but when rotating forward it hits a point and stops. I am just wondering if something broke in the LU that is causing this. Anyone ever had this happen?

    Hey guys I am having some issues with my little 4cyl. I was going across the lake at wot and all of a sudden the motor just shut down and will not turn over. My first thought is its done but I noticed the shift lever will go into forward position but will not go in reverse position. I have...

    Boat Electronics

    Not to change the subject. But why do those both look like they were set there rather than run aground.Those rocks would have shredded the bottom of those boats but yet there's no debris. :confused:

    This is how lame I am

    Agreed. I bought my 20% LLumar from the local window tint shop and installed myself. I have had the same thing on my truck for 8 years and has not turned color like cheaper tints will.
