    Lack of power 140 hp Johnson

    I have a 1983 140 hp Johnson. It starts and idles fine. When I give it throttle it kind of boggs down and has no power and does not go very fast. It ran awesome the last time I had it out. I have checked the compression it is good. I checked the spark present at all 4 cylinders. Not sure...

    125 hp johnson / no spark

    I have a 1971, 125 hp Johnson. Engine was running but died, replaced coil, started right up. Engine ran for about 10 mintes then died again. No more spark, it appears to be the coil again. What could cause the coil to burn out? Is there a way to test coil off motor? Any suggestions.

    1971 125hp johson /no spark

    I am working on 71 125 hp johnson. The motor was running and suddenly stopped after trouble shooting I replaced the coil and the motor started immediately. After about 10 minutes running the motor died again, no spark it again appears to be the coil. What could burn out coils so quickly? Thanks
