Turns out an acid flush fixed my issue (overheat in both heads), no new parts needed.

Thanks for all the feedback SEAHORSE, turns out an acid flush cleared all the passages and it's running way cooler, even with the jack plate way up and running in the higher rpm range.

Thanks for the tips

I have a 2015 Evinrude 250HO G1 and I need to order parts for it. I feel like I've used someone on here in the past who gave a small discount, can't remember who that was. Want to say they had...

OK. I haven't changed anything though, not like you're describing. I appreciate all the feedback though!

Isn't there a European parts seller on this board that gives BBC discounts? I feel like...

What would it mean if it was not aerated until higher rpms?

They asked if i wanted an acid wash. They said that if it were red bloom (algae) that an acid wash would flush it and fix it, but they also said that they hadn't done that anytime recently and when...

I’ll get the code on Monday morning.
The pressure that I normally see on the gauge is around 20 but he said it was as high as 35, I don’t know I’ve never seen the needle climb that high. 5200 RPM?

I have this motor on a tunnel style hull (cat hull). It's a short shaft with the large pick-up scoops. Shallow running with the jack plate way up is common for the region I fish, and on these...

My 2015 Etec 250 HO gave me a overheat alarm twice this past weekend, when running 40mph with abt 22psi water pressure at 4200rpm. Raised motor to check if nose cone pick up was clogged, was not. ...

Looking to repower my boat, hoping to find someone selling what I'm trying to buy!

I'm located in Texas, would need it crated and shipped to me.

Bought a 2015 boat/motor, motor is a 2015 ETEC 250 HO. I understand the G2 250 HO is allegedly 10% higher, coming in closer to 275hp, haven't heard the same thing said about the ETEC. Is there a...

I have a little slop in my prop. Bought motor used (2016 250 Pro XS model), bought prop used (mark croxton BnB Bravo) and installing mechanic gave me a hub since I didn't have one and needed one. ...

He's the moderator for this board, and very helpful, so I'd gladly give him my business. Thanks for the tip!

I think I've found the kit on his site, will call Monday & confirm.

Thanks!

My serial # is 2B231293, which gear case oil should I use, and how many quarts to buy?

Thanks for all the replies, gives me a sense of relief.

This is my first boat with trim tabs and I use them a good amount, but I'm always using them more each successive trip. This is the first motor that I've trimmed out as much as this one when...

Thanks for the responses!

David: It has the 20" shaft, TM lower, solid motor mounts would explain more vibration transference.

PVS holes are plugged (has dual) on advice from the dealer who...

My 150 4 stroke had me spoiled to a quiet operation, beginning to end. A slouch out of the hole, and top speed wasn't much to brag on (43mph w/ a mild tail wind and no chop). The 250 Pro XS is quiet...

Hah, didn't notice that, new to the boards. Thanks for all the input!

My boat came with a 2015 150 4 stroke. WOT, boat runs at 5900rpm. Because it's a bay boat, I there are only a few occasions each trip where I turn the wick all the way up. I'm about to trade up on...

I recently purchased a motor from an individual, and I will need to get the motor shipped to the dealer who will install it for me. It will be shipped on the factory crate (2016 motor).

What's...
