- Help! The handle on my outboard motor won't go back in and I can't start it. Easy fix for a bad recoil unit. Replace the broken spring or just re-seat it and preload so it works again.
Thank you for forgetting the washer, and including that in your video. You saved me from making the same mistake! You guys are a great team. Have fun on the water, play safe.
This the best post ive seen on doing a 9.9 Johnson pull start cord or spring repair. very very good .
Great video. I have an 83' Evinrude 15hp and just popped the spring out of place last night. This video helps a lot since it looks like our motors are identical. Thanks for the share and your helpful assistant. He did a great job! 👍👍
Thanks so much for the video! I have a little 4hp Envinrude and had to replace the spring. The video you and your son did made it so easy!
Great video kids need more of this in their lives today
thanks kid, you helped me to fix 2 problems . great job .
Thank goodness for you tube. To get the old spring out of mine I actually chucked it across the yard and it came popping out. Then I realized I threw the washer with it hahaha. Edit: a few hours later, I wound the thing backwards, and forgot the washer.
I just spent an hour trying to fix this on my 15. Thanks kid.
I'm doing it right now ... hope I don't forget the washer ... glad you did!
Thank you for the video. I repaired my Johnson 15hp on the water today. The bolt backed off and the recoil assembly fell off. I couldn't figure out why, but if I tightened the bold back down, the rope wouldn't pull back in unless I loosened the bolt up. I guess the last guy who put it together put that small washer in the wrong place (on top of the big washer instead of inside the spring case).
Do I have to wear pajamas when i do this or is that optional?
Looks like you've got a good mate there. Great video
Good vid Team Evinrude. Had a problem getting that sucker in. I was wondering what all the OUUUCH was about. Now I know, the end of the spring got me too lol. Thanks alot.
very nice video, and what a great father and son team you are!
Thank you mate, i forgot the washer and your video reminded me haha. Before that i was wondering why it was stuck like a horse on ketamine.
This was very helpful, I thought I was going to have to take it to a shop. Awesome thanks
👌thank you for sharing.
That lil man is going to be one hell of a mechanic.
Eh, he is almost 19 now, and just kind of a mechanic. He is great in many other ways.
@@mbrenengen they grow so fast.
Yep, I found that if you keep them away from social media, they turn out better, and more productive.
Can’t get my grandsons to do much. They are on Xbox constantly.
thanks for this video, saved me about 40 bucks and one less day out on the water.
Good job guys, I surely would have dropped something in the lake! Please be careful with that spring, it will "put your eye out"! Good job with the washer and the locating pin, most usually screw that stuff up....
Excellent job. thanks for the lesson.
Extremely helpful~! Thanks!
good job... my suggestion.. ALWAYS INSTALL A NEW ROPE too. I always keep a length of rope in my shed. If I take apart a recoil for any reason, I always put on a new rope. Even if the existing one is only a year old... .they get dry rot so might as well change it
Excellent advice. After 40 years the integrity of the rope can be compromised.
God bless You both.
haha awesome. That kid is great. He should have his own cable show.
My God I wish I thought of that rewind method before spending an hour trying to bundle it back in with one go!
Perfect
Good job on the video
GREAT video- helped me out a lot, thanks!
Thanks for the awsome and helpful video
Thanks for sharing, this helped me to replace the rope on my Johnson Seahorse 9.9
Good vidéo thanks it will help me😉
Good job kiddo! Thanks for the help!
I'd like to see the kid wind that spring.
often times when the spring is being sucked in it is because the anchor point is bent. The metal gets bent outwards and wont hold the spring anymore. Just a thought. If you find yours is this way just whack it with a hammer until its flat again and it will hold the spring.
cheers mate,worked a treat.
That boy will be rebuilding engines at the age of 14
He is 16 now and not one engine rebuilt...
@@mbrenengen oh wow! Well good to see a young man out with his dad workin on motors.i guess when tbey hit tbe teenage years things change lol.hey what model was that outboard you guys were working on? I bought 1 today & its all scratched up.i cant read any numbers.wanting to order parts.i have serial num but no model num.do u remember by chance?
I repair everything in my Spider Man Pajamas.
Great video! I was very happy to have it all back together when I looked up and saw the washer on the bench. And that was AFTER I saw you do it! My ‘80’s vintage 9.9 has a small red ratcheting device of some kind that makes it really hard to re-install. Any ideas?
The ratcheting device keeps the motor from being started with the throttle too high. It can be removed (mine doesn't return with the throttle when you turn it down)
Thanks for posting this video! I need to do this to mine for the upcoming fishing season, I think this helped a lot! I have a fishing and outdoor vlog on here if you (or anyone) want to check it out!
Thanks again!
Great kid dad duo
Just what I needed to find
Make sure you wind the spring the right way or else you will not have any tension on the rope.
Hello.i have that exzact same outboard.but the tag is missing.all i can find is my serial #.i dont know what the model is to order parts! Could u tell me what model that is?
That kid has big hands.. and a wedding ring?! 😉
My recoiler spring has a bunch of sticky goo in it and is very hard to pull. Does this spring need any kind of lubricant or is it dry?
It should be dry. Sounds like you're needs cleaning.
just fixed my recoil on my Evinrude 9.9 earlier today
Louis Gene Whitledge II where did you order the part from?
I reassembled my recoil starter but how do you add tension to it or do you need to. I tightened down the bolt and it was hard to turn the recoil starter and it would just go slack, but hone i would loosen the bolt it started to wind back. any tips?
You have to wind it a couple turns before you bring the string out. Also make sure the washer is in the right place so it turns easily.
I am having trouble getting the bolt to tighten up all the way. I have a feeling the gear slips because it is stripped on the bottom of the insert of the bolt. I have a feeling the bolt is not tightening because the bottom is stripped. Will getting a new bolt will fix the problem? Any suggestions??
That doesn't sound like the problem to me. Take the recoil unit out and see if the bolt will go on all the way. Look at the washers and make sure you have them in the right place too.
how do you add the tension when its back in with the rope on?
👍Great job.
Was it necessary to take the handle of th the rope ?
Yes, but it is very easy to do.
Fabulous !!!!!!!
forgot to put washer made me laugh ... every time!!!
Nice
Thanks. 2nd time ive done this. Bolt keeps comimg loose. Suggestions?
My small washer was under the rewind unit, and not inside.
Lock Tight? I don't know. Have not had that problem.
@@mbrenengen thanks. Noticed washer at 1:15 was under the assembly and not inside of it. Hoping the washer prevented bolt from seating properly.
thank you
respect
What size wrench?
Anyone have suggestions on where to find the spring that I need for this motor?
My pullcord has came out or broken 6 times this year, I was going to replace the rip cord once more and noticed my spring was broken this time. Any suggestions as to why I can’t keep it in place?

@1:21 -- LOL ... This happened to me !!
Not nice ..
This video did not help at all... soo easy that the assistant had to coil it right?
Seriously? You should just pay someone to fix it.
Who shit in your cereal
