I have Evinrude 115 HP V4 2stroke possibly 1995 ish era. I'm not a great boat person but do work a lot with motors. This one has me baffled.. Just struggles to start always... Really winds over well but just doesn't start... Can you help? Spark seems good?? Fuel is good?? I just can't work it out

The light fuse on a 1995 Lowe boat with a 30 hp Evinrude outboard motor may be located in different places depending on the boat's wiring and electrical system. However, the most common location for the light fuse is in the boat's fuse panel or in-line with the light wiring near the switch. You can refer to the boat owner's manual or wiring diagram for specific details on the location of the light fuse. If you don't have access to the manual, you may need to inspect the boat's wiring system or consult a marine electrician to help locate the fuse.

Sounds like a fuse has blown, look behind your dash panel.

go google and type in workshop manual for evinrude outboard motor and there are pages of manuals
a page called tradebit. com has the manuals in pdf version so look for a book that suits your requirements

My outboard motor is old and used.When I went to run it for the first time everything worked except when I went to put it in forward gear the boat went slowly but when I gave it more gas the engine just reved up but the boat wasn't going any faster.The motor is 40hp gale model.I think because it is bought used the prop is not the right one and it seems like it's slipping as I go faster.
I would appreciate any feedback on this problem.

Thax, Don

Depending on the year motor, make sure the throttle is in the neutral position, drop the lower unit and the motor foot should come off, will probably take some wiggling and with the age of the motor, possibly a few light taps around the cavitation plate with a mallet would be helpful.
