Is there a shear on a 1975 mercury 200 (20hp) outboard motor
Replace the shear pin.
It sounds like the shear pin has been sheared.
The cone pin, or shear pin, is used to attach the propeller to the drive shaft so that if you hit something hard with the propeller, you only break the shear pin, and not the expensive drive shaft, motor, or propeller.Or, more specifically, that you only break the shear pin and propeller, not the drive shaft or motor.
I run my 150hp mercury V6 on 50:1 pre-mix (fuel to oil) this has been working fine for the last 7yrs! Your engine will be the same if you wish to pre-mix. This equates to 0.5 liters of oil in 25liters of fuel or 0.8pints in 5 gallons. This is very a very common practice where I live, as the Mercury engines are prone to thermostats corroding, then overheating which causes the oil pump drive to shear, loss of lubrication and then seizing!
Engine, not motor. There is a possibility for it to, if the impact is sufficient enough to shear the engine mounts.
It depends on the model of the engine. The early models utilized a smooth propshaft with a shear pin drive. The late models use a splined shaft. Both early and late models use a nut, with a cotter pin, to retain the propeller.
Flywheel key (or shear pin) can shear off which will put the motor out of time and wont start . It could do damage to some other parts but that is the most common.
The shear modulus of a material is calculated by dividing the shear stress by the shear strain. This can be represented by the equation: Shear Modulus Shear Stress / Shear Strain.
Shear Stress divided by the Angle of Shear is equals to Shear Stress divided by Shear Strain which is also equals to a constant value known as the Shear Modulus. Shear Modulus is determined by the material of the object.
viscosity of mercury is lesser than of water,because shear stress developed in water is more than mercury, this is taken from the relation viscosity is directly proportional to the shear stress and inversely proportional to velocity gradient.from fluid mechanics.
Sheer is a homophone of shear.
