    Johnson works on full choke only

    My old 40 hp johnson (40R 70A) starts and runs nice for a short while only if the choke is kept on full. If the choke is removes, the RPMs drop and the motor dies. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    1971 40hp Johnson sitting for few years

    I just received a 14" boat with a 40 hp Johnson outboard. It was sitting exposed to the weather for a couple of years without being used. What should I do before trying to fire it up ? The head has been replaced - how can I find info on it ? All help is greatly appreciated.
