In this video I show tensioning the recoil mechanism on a Mercury 110 9.8 HP outboard. I also investigate several reasons why it won’t start including inspecting the reed valves.

I know this is a old video mate but was hoping you could give me some advise on one of these. A friend has one and it will go into nuetral and reverse but cannot click it into forward. Even with the leg off any help mate would be greatly appreciated
For future reference you use the top but to separate the lower unit from the midsection. Just keep turning it up and it acts like a puller.
ALL screwdrivers are "hammerable" (7:58). Some only once though!
Hello Friend! do you have a carburetor of that same engine to sell me ??? { Brazil}
olá amigo! vc tem um carburador desse mesmo motor para me vender ??? { brasil}
ALL 2 stroke Mercury's are hard starting. I've had two now, and sold them both, I hunt Waterfowl in Upstate NY, and the colder it gets, the harder they start. Have since switched to Evenrudes.
wow that's funny "STAAT YA' BAAASTAAD" genius marketing right there
my first motor back in 1981
12:44 early friday morning and a beer in his hand 😛 on the piss at work haha good on ya mate
So once you changed the impeller did the steaming and all that go away

I have two Yamaha outboards and one Merc the Yamahas are great the little 6 horse Merc is a snivilly little bastard I hate it but it came with the dinghy so I am stuck with it until it dies or I rip it off the dinghy and chuck it in the ocean.
There is probably an intermittent ignition issue that you jostled by taking it apart and reassembling it?
Well, There is 20 minutes gone and we don't know what was wrong with the motor. Cant figure why you posted this video.
Breakfast beer !
I have purchased a Merc 7.5 and 9.8 both early 70s vintage. I didn't even know that they were nearly identical except for carburetor jets and maybe a couple other minor differences. They both start but neither pumps water out the spit hole. I have replaced the impellers and run air and then water backward through the system with no hindrance. Do you have any other suggestions as to why water will not flow through the cooling system? This was a great and informative video which I wish I had watched prior to tearing apart the lower end on each two or three times. Incidentally, they both have the 35/1000s larger shaft for the impeller.
