pre-ignition from excessive heat in combustion chamber. fatigue of internal components from lack of lubrication, namely rings seizing to cylinder walls.

What is the weight of a 50 hp Force outboard motor?
50 hp Force 2-Stroke Outboard Motor. Force 50 hp Outboard is a long shaft. Force 50 hp only weighs 152lbs!! It is one of the lightest 50hp outboards ever made. This is advantageous as it will deliver 50 hp without weighing the transom down.
You just raised your 60 hp motor to the top and it will not go back down?
Check your fuse first, then the trim switch. Assuming the Up trim still works correctly, I would suspect a failure (in this order) of the down trim solenoid, the trim switch, or the trim motor. If your outboard has more than one trim switch (most newer ones have one at the helm and one on the outside of the motor cowling), try the other switch. If it works, suspect a bad switch. There are two identical solenoids that control the up/down trim motor. If the outboard only trims in one direction, switch the two solenoids and see if the outboard will now only trim in the opposite direction. If so, one of the solenoids is defective. Note: These tend to fail in pairs. If you have to replace one, I recommend replacing them both at the same time. To test the trim motor, take your outboard to a certified marine mechanic.
Why would the engine while accelerating bog down only when the motor is hot?
A damaged catalytic converter could cause that.
What would cause a S10 Chevy pickup to jerk when driving down the road?
Could be spark in the motor, or the distributor and rotor need to be replaced.
Will a loose kill switch wire on a out board motor cause bogging down?
A loose kill switch wire on your out board motor will cause the engine to lose power. As the kill switch loses contact the motor will begin to bog down or completely quit.
What would happen to an electric motor if the amount of current in the motor was reduced?
Depends on what sort of motor it was. If it was the sort you find in an ordinary electric drill, then it would slow down. But rememer, the only way you can reasonably reduce the current in to motor is to reduce the voltage in the supply. A motor takes what current it can, dependent on Ohm's Law. To reduce the current, reduce the voltage. But in a three-phase motor, the speed being dependent on the rotation of the phases, it would more or less stay the same. But this assumes it's not under load. A load would cause it to slow down.
If a car has no thermostat what would cause it to overheat?
U NEED A THERMOSTAT. THAT IS WHAT HOLDS THE COOLANT IN THE RADIATOR, SO IT CAN COOL DOWN BEFORE IT GOES BACK IN THE MOTOR.
What would make your gearshifter move up and down when you go to accelerate?
Front or rear wheel drive same problem. Motor and or transmission mount. As the motor shifts on accelaration it can cause the shifter to move. I assume it is in the floor.
Would a bad radiator fan motor cause the ac not to cool?
It could affect it somewhat, but that's probably not the problem you're having with your AC. A system performance test with a manifold gauge set would narrow down the cause of your AC problem.
Would an electric motor start if its capacitor broke down?
No.
What would cause a leak of coolant in the rear of a 98 Chevy 350?
the intake gaskets on these motors are known to break and coolant will run along the intake and head down the back of the motor.
What would cause my blower motor on my truck to slow down while driving If you tap on it it usually comes back to full speed but then gradually slows down?
The blower motor is tired. It will eventually blow a fuse and/or burn out the blower motor speed resistor. Time to replace the blower motor. Also check connections for high resistance damage (melted connections).
