1982 Mercury 9.8 impeller service

I lost the first minute or so of video, just showing the destroyed pump. Boys and girls, change your impellers! The gent who owns this motor hadn't had it changed in 10 years! On these 9.8's the impeller is small and prone to failure, change it every 2-3 years. No need to shift into neutral, remove the 2 nuts holding the lower unit, one front and one rear. The lower unit drops down, 2 nuts hold the top of the pump cover on. Reassembly - use a zip tie to compress the impeller, dab some grease on the key and stick it to the impeller shaft. Slide the impeller on until it seat while removing the zip tie. Turn the drive shaft clockwise till the impeller vanes turn in the right direction. The water tube may come out with the lower unit, it needs to be pushed back up into the powerhead, then the lower unit is reinstalled, any other way will lead to non pumping. Hope this helps all yee owners of this model.

Buying Used Outboards

!±8± Buying Used Outboards

Used Outboards - Are you looking at buying a used outboard motor? If you are looking at buying a used outboard you should consider all of the options available to you. Some questions you should be asking firstly yourself is -

What will I mainly be using the outboard for? How many hours will I be doing each year? How much can I spend? How much can I afford for maintenance?

Each outboard motor manufacturer produces a very different outboard from the last. Some of these outboards suit different applications. For example, if you are looking at doing a lot or trolling, then you could possibly consider a four stroke outboard. The issue with most two stroke outboards is if you do a lot of trolling and idling, they can be very smokey and have the issue of fouling spark plugs.

If you are doing large hours with your outboard motor, then you will want an efficient outboard motor. A four stroke outboard or a direct injected two stroke, like a Mercury Optimax, Evinrude Etec, or Yamaha HPDI.

When buying used outboards the cost is a huge factor. You need to make sure that used outboard is in excellent condition, especially if you are on a tight budget. For instance, a used outboard motor over 5 years old will need to have the Powerhead gaskets replaced straight away, or within the next few years. Outboard Powerhead gaskets on used outboards can cost around 00 - 00. If you did not budget for this when shopping for a used outboard it can really put a stop to your boating season if you do not have the finances to have the Powerhead serviced.

As a rule of thumb, fuel injected two stroke outboards and four stroke outboards are a few hundred dollars more to service than carburettor two stroke outboards. This is an important area to consider when shopping for your second hand or used outboards. If you only do low hours, like 30 hours a year, it will probably cost you more to have a four stroke or fuel injected two strokes. This is because of the extra service costs. If you do large hours, 80 hours a year or more, then the extra fuel efficiency will save you money in the long run.

Used outboards are for sale for a reason - You really need to find out why that is. Quite possibly it is a genuine reason, the owner might do large hours and wants the extra fuel efficiency, and the owner might want a quieter outboard as the old two strokes might be quite noisy. Or, the outboard might have an underlying problem or issue and that is why it is for sale. This is why getting used outboards inspected before you buy them is very important! A used outboard inspection should be carried out by an experienced technician or outboard mechanic. They should go over the outboard motor from top to bottom. Carrying out a compression test, ignition system test, look in the motor with a bore scope to inspect cylinder bore condition, check gear oil, engine mounts, running quality and charging system etc...

The best place to buy used outboards from is a marine dealer or workshop, you might pay a little bit more but you will usually have the reassurance of a warranty or guarantee. After you have purchased the used outboard, it is very important to make sure it is installed correctly on the boat. Engine height and propeller selection is very important with used outboards and outboard motors in general. Also, you need to make sure it is serviced, the oil system is clean and operational and you are using the correct fuel for the outboard.

Correct Fuel and Oil For Outboard Motors

!±8± Correct Fuel and Oil For Outboard Motors

Should you be using DFI or standard engine oil?

It does make a difference, make sure your running the right stuff! It is essential to use the correct oil for your outboard, especially if you have a fuel injected outboard.

Each engine manufacturer spends millions of dollars developing oils for their engines. With fuel injected engines, such as the Evinrude Ficht or D.I and E-tec, the oils are specially formulated to stop carbon building up on the fuel injectors. These oils are more expensive, but the extra cost is well worth it.

If you have a fuel injected motor, be it a Mercury Optimax, Yamaha HPDI or Evinrude E-TEC etc I suggest purchasing the oil designed for the specific engine. Carburettor engines aren't so critical when it comes to oils, however you need to use marine outboard TCW3 oil.

Personally I always run an outboard manufacturer's oil. I have found that these oils are superior in lubrication and corrosion resistance over many of the other oils available.

When filling up your oil bottle, be sure to use the same oil every time! Mixing oils may cause the different brands to react, causing a sludge build up at the bottom of the oil bottle. This will eventually block the oil pickup or pump resulting in Powerhead damage.

If you have just purchased the boat and don't know what oil is in it, it pays to run the oil bottle down low, then start running the oil of your choice from then on. As always please consult your local specialist prior to undertaking any changes. On a pre-mix engine it doesn't really matter about mixing oils. As long as you run the outboard on TCW3 oil.

The mix that I run and recommend to all my customers is 50:1. This goes for any two stroke premix outboard. If you run an old outboard like Seagull for instance you will need to get in touch with your dealer as they run a much richer oil mix.

You may notice that on some smaller motors there is a sticker recommending you to run 100:1. From experience 50:1, in my opinion, is much better for the motor and with the extra oil in the mix it tends provide superior lubrication and helps to prevent corrosion of the internal parts of the motor when it is not in use.

In my F3 race boat I run a mix of 20:1, I put 1 litre of oil into 20 litres of Av Gas and I have never had a problem with fouling spark plugs. I always run the highest octane fuel the petrol station has available. It doesn't cost much more and the engine will love you for it, especially if you don't use the boat often.

Outboards have a minimum octane requirement for the fuel you use. Petrol available in New Zealand isn't that great, if you imagine your engine requires a minimum of 91 octane. If you use 91 you would probably be lucky for it even to have a true 91 rating. After you leave it sitting for a few weeks or months it will have deteriorated to well below the minimum requirement.

So always go higher!

If you are using the boat frequently and you run a Japanese 4 stroke outboard like Yamaha or Suzuki, 91 octane will be fine. But in my opinion all carburettor 2 strokes and especially American motors require 96 or above. Always check your handbook or contact your local dealer.

When storing the boat it is best to have the fuel tanks filled right to the top. When the tanks are low there is a lot of air in the tanks. This creates a risk of condensation, so top them right up.

If the boat is going to be stored any longer than about 2 months, I recommend putting some fuel conditioner into the fuel to help maintain the octane level. This is available at most of your local outboard dealers. Simply fill the tanks and mix the conditioner in. Your fuel will last months longer!
