So with the throttle closed, held closed by hand, does it still over-revs as soon as you start it up? If that's the case, disconnect the top spark plug wire and restart it, if it doesn't over rev, the issue is the upper crankshaft seal. This is a fairly difficult job so I would suggest seeking out a marine mechanic unless you are very mechanically inclined.

Probably needs the cable adjusted. Put the lower unit on and adjust the cable per the instructions for your lower unit.

Sounds like your engine is flooding when in the trim down position. You might need new fuel jets in the carbs.

Yes, disconnect the pistons and make sure the gears are in forward. You can lift (tilt) the lower unit up. I also suggest taking the pistons and tie them in an up position otherwise one or both pistons can extend. This is not a big problem, just you will need to cycle the pistons in to get them to align so you can reattach them.

Will it go up? Sometimes the travel lock engages and it won't go down.

The engine runs off the magneto. Only uses the battery to start. Everything else runs off the battery. If the starter doesn't engage, it's most likely the battery circuit. Remove and clean the battery terminals, tighten and try again. If unsuccessful, try another battery.

Check the problem with the help of service and repair manual which will provide you step by step help to locate and fix the problem easily and you will get the manual from the given link Home Toolsnyou

Could be a number of things such as, the cable needs adjusting, there is something blocking the shift cable from going into reverse all the way, the gears are somehow not aligned to mesh into reverse.

Check the wires and directions, something is crossed. Make sure your pump can do both, be in auto and be used in manual mode. I think the on switch you want to wire in will activate the auto function. There should be a float switch on the pump, be sure that works as it should. The pump may be defective or have a wire crossed.

Good morning,
Sounds like the cable for gear shift needs to be adjusted .
Remove control cable or linkage for gear shift .
Move gear manually into neutral.
Adjust cable length to fit into that position.
Hope that helps you

Probably best to contact the manufacturer and see if they have owners manuals. http://www.triumphboats.com/owners-page

Usually removing the carb is easy enough and cleaning it ensures it is actually cleaned. I would proceed that way if you have the skills.

Fuel pump or a possible ignition stator going bad.

Sounds like something is overheating and the engine computer is trying to prevent more serious damage. Your workshop must have changed the impeller and flushed the cooling system, so you will have to look deeper. It could be an electrical component that is failing or even the ECU itself, or, perhaps a sensor is sending a bad signal. Have you checked for error codes, that would be useful. Beyond that, it will not be possible to diagnose the problem from Fixya. You heed a better workshop.

Sorry to hear that, but no one can help you unless you provide more information about what fish finder you have and specifically what the problem is. Good luck.

You should trace the wires as a connection may have corroded or otherwise disconnected. You can check the voltage at the tilt motor if you have a volt meter. If you have power to the unit, then the unit is probably bad.

All 2 cycle engines after about 1966 operate on 50:1 gas to oil mix. If you are unsure, it is fine to operate at a higher oil level, just check the plugs more often for fouling.

Check the coils. An older motor could have corrosion in the coils and preventing operation.

All boats (except ProStar) have two drain plugs, which allow water to be drained from the boat when the boat is OUT of the water. There is a center T-handle drain (the only one for a ProStar) and a transom drain plug. The lower plug is located in the center of the transom at the lowest point. It will be under water when the boat is in the water.
