with the help of of some of you guys, I finally got the fuel issues resolved on my 2001 225 ocean pro. When I took it to the water for the first time, I took 2 timing lights (new and old one) and could not get either one to work. I knew by the tach that the engine was idling too high so I...
When I started having problems with my 225 johnson, one of the things I did was replace the switch. Everything was ok until I had a bad trip to the coast and the engine would not idle and I spend 3 days trying to get the engine running good enough to fish a little and I turned way too many...
I need someone to share some measurments on the correct float location. Im rebuilding my carbs (225 hp) but don't have a factory gauge. (thought repair kits had a gauge). I have dial calipers, scales, micrometers, etc. so if someone can share the technical data I think I can set the floats...
Although I recently said that Id never have another OMC motor, I found a 2005 225 HO etec New with warranty. Very good deal but it will be 7 years old as soon as it starts, I know this. My questions are these.... can a 20" shaft be converted to a 25 without a lot of expense? Is this 225 HO...

I have a 2001 Ocean Pro Johnson and I wanted to upgrade the fuel system. I installed a new sending unit in the tank, new fuel line and bulb, new filter at the engine, new fuel/water seperator filter. Took it to the water and it won't idle. Have to bump the throttle up quite a bit to get it...
I have the old type f/w seperator that just looks like an automotive oil filter. I put a new filter on and filled the filter about 90% full with fuel before putting in on. Keep in mind that on my boat, the bulb is between the filter and the motor. I tried to pump the bulb and got nothing...
Sunday I took the boat out for the first time this season. It was difficult to start but several things went wrong beyond that. First, the kill switch didnt make any difference, the engine ran with the kill switch engaged or disengaged. Then after about 30 minutes of running, all four...
I noticed a 2 inch long crack in the engine cowl and the latch in the front is broken off and the mechanic had to lock it with a pair of visegrips. Where can I buy another engine cowl or new latches at the very least? thanks
I bought a 2002 ocean pro on a 24' CC and had nothing but heartache first time out. would not run over 5100 rpms with a 15x17 prop, then the motor ran very erratic with the rpms constantly fluxuating about 200 rpms even at WOT and then when I started to put in on the trailer the HOT warning...
Im looking at a boat that has the F250txrd motor. Is there anything about this motor that has known chronic problems? Thanks for helping before I buy something. :D
