workshop manual for 2006 honda 2hp outboard

Anyone know of a functioning internet link?

Hi I used to have a link but the website is now suspended. You may need to recheck the date of manufacture. Honda stopped selling their 2hp badged models on 2002 and 2003 changed to 2.3. I'm guessing the cowl has an EPA 2006 sticker on the cowl.
(The only difference on a 2003 /2004 engine is the sticker on the cowl, 2004 to present day Is cosmetic changes, now power output increases or changes to the mechanicals)
What infor were you looking for regarding the engine?

That's the owners manual. I think the OP needs the workshop manual

Hi Steve,

I was planning to contact you about this! You are correct, it has the EPA 2006 sticker on the cowl, but the engine is earlier. The serial number is 1316959. The engine was kindly given to me by a friend when he sold his boat. It had not been used for a year or so prior to me getting it, and then went unused by myself for a further year (stored correctly all this time). I couldn't get it to start, so assumed it was the fuel. The oil was low, so I topped that up, just prior to draining the fuel, with the intention of flushing and re-filling with fresh fuel. When I released the drain plug on the carb, what came out was not the expected dirty fuel, but the nice fresh oil that I had just put in! Thus, it seems that there is a problem in the head, which is going to require a strip down.
Any advice? I will be needing parts from you!

Best,

Steve

Hi Steve,

thanks for the reply and the advise. Both myself and the previous owner have always been very careful about correct storage, and so I can say with 99.9% certainty that it is not a storage problem. Most likely, then oil overfilling. I added about 25ml of oil from a syringe, and noted that it did not seem to drain into the engine block. I would have added more (because I still cannot see the oil in the level indicator) but the 25ml I had already added were right up to the top of the fill tube. From some of your previous (very helpful) posts, it seems that oil leaks from the rocker cover are quite common on these engines. I noticed that there seemed to be quite a bit of oil on the shaft when it was in storage (vertical) in my flat. Do you think this could be a possibility?

Best,

Steve

Bloody deleted again!!!
From the age of your engine if it had been used in a saltwater environment it will have a rusted rocker cover. The oil on the leg could be linked to the oil in the carb ( oil out of the breather out through the airbox and on to the leg). You should just about see oil just below the threads on the oil filler casting.When you top up the oil leave it a minute or two to get your correct level

Hi Steve,

Will have a closer look in the next few days (need to get some tools from the boat, for further examination). I'll let you know what I find.

Many thanks again for your help and advice

best wishes,

Steve
