    Thanks. Makes sense. Just thought I'd ask since I already have the smaller toon. I'll just continue my search for a 23inch toon.

    My goal was to get input from someone that has experience with a smaller center toon. Thanks for your input though. You certainly live up to your nickname. Merry Christmas!

    I want to add a third toon of smaller diameter

    I have never seen one smaller either but I'm hoping there's someone on this forum that has experience with it. As far as a larger one in the center, I'm familiar with that. My brother had a Manitou tri-toon and the center toon was larger, or at least it hung lower in the water. However, when...

    Impeller kit number?

    How to test VRO system

    Just picked up a 1985, 70hp Johnson with the VRO. It hasn't been running in at least 5 years. Is there a way to test the VRO before I attempt to start it? I don't want to learn too late that the VRO wasn't working and ruin the motor. I've deleted the VRO on another engine in the past but...

    Sorry, thought I listed that it's a 70hp. Don't have the model or serial number. I've just been in messaging communication with the seller. I'll see if he can provide the serial and model #. Below is a photo.

    Troublesome motor??

    I am thinking of buying a 1997 Johnson 4 stroke outboard with fuel injection. I didn't realize they had fuel injection in those years. Is it true fuel injection and does anyone have any thoughts on this motor? Thanks for any input.
