    1988 Johnson 225 goes to slow mode

    Every trip the the motoer goes to SLOW mode.<br />I run boat at 3800 RPM, boat runs fine, will run over 5000 RPM, but every trip the motor goes to slow mode at least one time. When this happens the RPM drops to about 2000-2500. I pull the control to neutral and wait till idle smooths out...

    1987 Johnson 225 erratic running problems

    Motor starts and idles ok. Some days it runs fine, othe days it will act up. I run it at 3800-4000 RPM on my 230 SEA OX. By acting up it will be running at cruse speed and then loose all power. I then need to return to idle for a few seconds until idle is smooth then we are good to go again...

    Engine acts up at start up. Smokes and seems to miss fire. After 3-5 min it seems to run ok. The rest of the day it runs like a new engine.<br /><br />Can anyone tell me how the choke system works?<br />Maybe somthing is sticking or needs to be cleaned? <br /><br />Thanks<br /><br />T J Gleeson
