    OK, sorry jimmbo, I got them printed.

    Johnson 60ESL70B component

    jimmbo, thanks for that info, can you provide a larger scale version of the pics or PDF file, they becomes illegible when enlarging. racerone, thanks for the advice, I was hoping to avoid that for now but I guess I'll have to. Do you know the torque for the flywheel nut when reassembling?

    Johnson 60ESL70B component

    My limited online research suggests timing settings of +4 ATDC at idle and -20 BTDC at full throttle. I don't have access to the appropriate manual for the 60ESL70B, so looking for confirmation.

    Johnson 60ESL70B component

    I drafted the following beautiful prose ready to post it, about the 12 VDC circuit going haywire when the motor ran, but then I thought of a comment I had heard about "earth grounding the motor" which typically happens through the lower unit being in the lake. Since I was running it in a...

    Johnson 60ESL70B component

    Thanks F_R for that explanation, that is exactly how I interpreted things from the wiring diagram. I was aware of the default in forward gear. I'm wary of the automotive coil usage too but that's for another day if/when it fails, lol. I'm awaiting a new rectifier before moving on with the...

    Johnson 60ESL70B component

    Thanks, that what I thought. Yes all plugs confirmed firing with a visual spark tester tool. I cleaned up the insides of the remote and applied a bit of grease to the roller but haven't examined the engine cable adjustments yet.

    Johnson 60ESL70B component

    I wasn't asking about the blocking diode (0279176) in the remote, I was asking about the "diode assembly" as it is called on the wiring diagram or might be called "diode and lead assembly" (0383840). I presume the output is 12VDC so it must be rectified and regulated like the formal "rectifier"...

    OK, it looks like it is named "diode and lead assembly" on the exploded parts diagram, but other verification questions remain for me.

    Johnson 60ESL70B component

    The wiring diagram for this motor shows a component named "diode assembly" and I have one on my motor, not to be confused with a "clipper circuit assembly" (that my model "B" doesn't use) or the blocking diode in the remote control. What purpose is this component? It seems to be exclusively to...
