so i put a new prop on today (slightly lower pitch. went from 17 to 15). and i noticed when slowing down quickly i'd get a few seconds of clicking noises from the engine. its a 2000 johnson 130 oceanpro. i have a feeling it might be the engine slowing down quicker than the prop. just wanna make...
i have a 1997 oceanrunner 115 that only starts on a high idle. my friend seems to think its the powerpack. i thought powerpacks either work or they dont. i'm pretty sure if the powerpack was partially defective it would only work on a low idle due to the slow feature engaging when it shouldnt...
i have a 2000 johnson 130 on a 20 ft robalo cc with a 15x17 prop. my engine will get up to to 4500 rpms and my speed is 20 mph. i'm looking to get a little more out of my engine. i've checked and there is no room left on the throttle arm to go further. my carbs at full throttle are wide open but...

i have a 2000 johnson 130 that i might have to put a new powerhead on at the end of the season. compression is a little low. i was thinking about putting a 135 powerhead on to gain a little horsepower but i noticed that the part number is exactly the same for both the 130 and 135 powerhead. i...

i'm trying to put my boat back together after doing the transom and need some wiring help. i have the main harness that goes back to the controls. out of it comes 2 bunches of wire with 3 wires in each bunch. i know one is for the temp gauge and the other is for the volt gauge. they both look...
i just redid my transom with nidabond. it came out great. however where the engine used to mount, the bolt holes had elongated. i covered them with duct tape prior to filling on the outside skins of the transom (not a good idea. turns out nidabond dissolves the adhesive on the duct tape. i was...
i'm gonna redo my transom with nidabond but I was wondering why transoms are not replaced in the following manner:remove the entire cap from the transom, drill out and scrape out all the old wood the same way you would for a pourable transom then cut new plywood to the transom shape, laminate...

so i went out fishing this morning and was chasing a school of bass. we stopped to do some fishing and while sitting there saw a black fin about 6 inches high pop out of the water. it dissapeared so we moved to keep chasing the school. while repositioning ourselves we saw a whole bunch of fins...

i just got a boat with a 2000 johnson 130 on it. the boat was in the water when i bought it and the guy took me for a test drive and the boat ran great. it still does. i took a compression and there was between 120 and 125 psi on all cylinders. the plugs all looked really clean but they were not...
i have a 1978 140 evinrude that needs a new upper main bearing as the flywheel has slight play. i have the original evinrude manual which says the engine must be stripped down to get to the main bearing but i noticed that it seems as though if i take the 4 bolts off under the flywheel next to...
i have a 1979 evinrude 115. i am getting a very erratic spark so i traced the problem back to the stator. with the stator disconnected from the rectifier i get 150v dva from the plug on the starboard side and 110v dva from the port side.i did these tests with the plugs disconnected from the...
