    Johnson gas tank connection

    One pic you can see the two pins are equal in length so probably not a problem there but the other pic, the connection is not snug. Should it be a closer fit? It doesn't leak fuel but could it be leaking air? Brand new fitting on the fuel line.

    Johnson gas tank.

    I found one of these at a yard sale a few years ago for $10.00. It looked like it had been used maybe one or two times and was clean as a pin inside and out. I hadn't used the boat all this time and you guys had been helping me thru the re-build of the 9.5 Johnson. The motor is running OK except...

    Will this fit my motor?

    A few of you were concerned about the welded skeg on my MQ-13 9.5 Johnson. I have been looking for a replacement and found this. 382573, 0382572, Gearcase Assy. (Upper & Lower), 1972 Evinrude 9.5 hp 9222M Rope I'm not worried about the upper, just the lower gear case cover...

    Timing 9.5 johnson

    Are these the marks I use with a volt meter? I saw a couple of videos on the subject, looks pretty easy other than the marks face front and the bottom plate moves around. Should you have the throttle at stop or does it matter?

    9.5 Johnson Hopefully the last two questions.

    Do the impeller fins need to point a certain way? Also My points came with felt pads. The old points had no pads, are they necessary and if so where do they go.

    Johnson 9.5 Shift Rod Bushing? What tap size do I need?

    Ok, going to vent a little. A week and a half ago I dropped off the housing at the The Boat Center. It's a huge boat dealer in Memphis. I had called earlier and he said he could knock it out in a few minutes, no sweat and no charge. They were very busy and working a skeleton crew so he asked me...

    Johnson 9.5 Gears

    What are your thoughts on the gears pic. There is wear and tear on the drive shaft mostly but a little on the prop shaft too.. Should I clean it up with emery cloth? My seal kit and points kit came in yesterday so I am ready to go to work.

    Johnson model MQ-13 9.5hp Tiller handle.

    Re-installing the tiller handle. I took it apart and cleaned it. It was pretty nasty, caked with grease etc. Anyway, when re-installing, do you line up the first tooth of the gear on the handle with the first slot in the rack? Also the plastic screw in the rack has the flared head snapped off...

    Pivot Pin 9.5 hp Johnson

    Well that's a fine mess I got myself into. I stripped the head on the pivot pin and then the easy out broke off trying to extract it. My question is since it's in there really good, do I need to take it out? I have a seal kit on the way and I was hoping to put a new washer on it. Do I need to...
