'90 225 johnson: It goes fine in fwd, and hits neutral at the proper throttle detent (suggesting the shift-rod is adjusted ok); but in reverse, while the prop reverse-spins at idle, adding rpm doesn't increase reverse speed one bit. Quite a thrill to find this out docking (!)<br />Has anyone...
Took my ratty-running '90 Johnny 225 to the dealer and he reports one no-spark cylinder and all others but two running weak. He says no spark means power pack and weak spark the coil. Question is, if the power pack's faulty, wouldn't all cylinders be dead? Couldn't it be a dead coil?
Finding Bombardier's site worthless and the stock of online stores seemingly limited, is there an online source for the 'special tools' the manual says I need to overhaul my johnny 225?
once it starts things are ok, but getting it started has become a bear.<br /><br />fuel pressure is ok, but it will only start after a lot of cranking and pressurizing at the bulb, and only after letting it sit still for 10min or so afterward. Any ideas?
