Awesome video, about to get started on my 2001 9.9hp.

salman000 says:

i have the exact same problem, it seems like its going away the more i run
it, but still there, would love to know why if anyone has any idea

BuckslayerBob says:

Great video! I would wear rubber gloves though because solvent isn’t good
for your skin to come in contact with and can lead to stuff like testicular
cancer in young guys.. Had a friend this happened to, but he made it
through it.

I am right there with you Fritxmerde… Great video, definitely schooled me
on cleaning my carb! I am having the exact issue motor fires up and as soon
as my i give it fuel it bogs and dies. Did you get the answer to your
problem last year?

Jayson Scot says:

Where is the idle mixture cap exactly? Needless to say this video was
extremely helpful and my 2002 9.9hp runs better than ever. Great video.

classicoutboards says:

@rasm146d Yes, the procedure is different for removing the carb and
disassembling it, but the cleaning process is the same

BWOJBO says:

I have the same motor, however I am having trobles. When I push the choke

Great video, to all the ass holes out there that can’t relate “this

….. Y’all are F**K**G stupid!!! Open your eyes and watch YouTube! This
guy made a great video! Good job mate! Excellent vid! Haters F**K off! 😀

A clean carb makes all the difference.

Xristos Pretaniou says:

Thanks, great how to, will reinforce classicoutboards , wear eye protection
when spraying, also having used petroleum products for many years without
gloves, I eventually got skin reactions in later years, wear nitriles or
latex, your partner will appreciate it too.

WOW, this video was a great help. I have a Tohatsu 9.8 4 stroke. I put
Tohatsu 9.8 into the search and it gave me this video along with some
others but I have to say that the engine on this 2005 merc looks the same
as my Tohatsu 9.8 as does the Carb. The instructions were great and helped
out a lot. Thanks!

rasm146d says:

can i do that on a 5hp 2stroke johnson, is it the same ?

Russ Marshall says:

you forgot to pull the idle mixture plug cap out and clean the passage,
major problem with these carbs

captianduck says:

Just did the same thing on my 2006 F9.9M. carb was overflowing from trash
in float valve. Had to replace the fuel line also. It would not come off
the carb. I cut it length wise over the brass tube on the carb and had to
peel it off. It was fused to the brass tube so bad that rubber was torn
from the inside of the hose and adhered to the connection tube. I had to
scrape it off with a blade and sand the rest off with fine sandpaper. I
suspect ethanol in the gas. Runs great now. Thanks.
