    Need help with strobe timing on 1972 9.5 HP Johnson 9R72M

    I had a bunch of 2 stroke motors from 1.5 to 85 HP and know what you are talking about, but with this particular motor it is much, much more. And this is first 9.5 HP I got, so I can not really compare with the same type motor.

    I still need help with this motor. Please read and tell me what you think. I did some extensive work on it due to the fact that previous owner had little clue what he was doing, based on issues I found. 1. Replaced gearcase due to small crack. Re-seal kit, water pump kit, pressure test passed...

    I have 9.5 HP 972 Johnson. It has timing marks on the flywheel. I can not find mark to align those marks against using strobe light. I do not have original manual for this motor unfortunately. Can anyone help please?

    I was thinking about drilling before, like the hole and SS pin at the end of driveshaft on older 6 HP OMC motors to push head seal, but then dropped the idea scared to weaken\ruin driveshaft. Anyway , I will soak it for week or two while coming up with the way to pull.

    Do you think Kroil will be good? This thing gets bad things that any other "oil" can not.

    Need advice on 1989 4 HP Johnson

    Hello, I just got this little motor. Previous owner removed LU , it needs some work. But, the difficult part for me is that driveshaft stayed in motor. I am not able to pull it out. I have original manual that just says, "remove 3 screws and remove gearcase". Nothing special... Is there some...
