    Nice! Thanks for info. I have to replace my flywheel/pull start mechanism (i over enthusiastically pulled it apart last fall) and used the backup wrap line around flywheel on the rest of my outings. Worked fine but have to take cover off every time.

    When changing gear lubricant without a pump can you add the gear oil from the top plug with the bottom one screwed in until it starts running out ? Thanks for sharing

    It's not a great idea. The gear oil is thick and you could end up with an air pocket in the bottom... you might think it's full when it's not. That's way the directions say to fill from the bottom.

    Thanks for the video. I'm new to doing an outboard service. Are there any differences to servicing a 2hp Honda 4 stroke outboard

    Would oil on spark plug indicate piston rings worn would you do a compression test and what compression would you expect for that outboard

    Yes, but for a 13 year old motor, I'm not worried about it burning a little oil. It's not worth the money to fix it at this point.

    Will the reverse switch work when the outboard is not running? I have a BF5 and can't seem to put it in reverse when the motor is not running.

    @@shuswapoutdoors Do you use the internal gas tank at all or just connecting it to an external gas tank or both? Also, let's say you are just using the external tank only, do you still need to flush out all the gas from the lines in the motor of not using it for more then 6 months?.... Thanks

    Mine doesn't have an internal fuel tank. If you use boat gas (marked premium), you're fine to let it sit. If you're using fuel with ethanol, you need to flush it out. The ethanol will slowly dissolve the plastic lining in the fuel line, and it will clog the jets in the carb.
