Johnson Sea Horse

[Jerome]

I picked up a 2cyl. Johnson Sea Horse fishing motor at a yard sale and would like to know what year it is and what horse power so I can try and get a manual for it.
The serial is 67330 Mod H.D 25. I Would like to thank anyone that can help me. Jerome

Howdy, Jerome.

The HD-25 was made from 1946 through 1948.

It is 2.5Hp, uses Champion J8C plugs gapped at .030".

Set the points in the magnetos at .020".

Good luck.
