    1975 Johnson 25 won't run above idle in gear under a load.

    could be just carb dirt again from that tank hose you did not change or dirty pick-up check venting ..recheck compression etc.. and sparks more to come surely.. :) check fwd linkage

    1956 Fastwin 15 Drive Shaft and Impeller Issues

    on the 5.5 and similar size engines you have a split pin holding all the " stuff" upwards against the PH .. carbon seal spring base etc... no such things on a 15hp so no such PIN top side of the shaft ..just splines to grease.

    1971 Johnson 4hp no spark / possible bad coils?

    Happy Holidays to you to ! the 4hp is a great learner engine. In a tub don't run it to fast because the prop generates lots of air bubbles and impeeds cooling after a while. replace oils and impeller before testing. it should spit water out look up utubes lots of them... here is one :-)

    1971 Johnson 4hp no spark / possible bad coils?

    glad you solved it... those 4 hp ( I have three refurbished) are great litlle kickers for trolling and back-ups to modern fussy engines. a great book to help out from the past ..it does not cover your 4hp1971 but.... for 20$ it is a great read on general maintenance of oldies like the JW...

    No fuel being drawn into lower cylinder Johnson 7.5hp

    well a hole is usually round and that "chunck" missing does not fit the description much :-) patch it up and run it till it dies then find a nice early 60s 7.5 J or E .

    No fuel being drawn into lower cylinder Johnson 7.5hp

    welding ($$$) would be best but you can try this stuff . properly shaped it may do the job .. it gets pretty hot in that section 1983 is not " old" old is 1950's ...an old 50-60s J or E 7.5hp model can be found in much better shape sometimes $100-150$ if you search and are...

    90HP Evinrude E-Tec

    BTW whenever removing the lower clamshell.... be VERY carefull to line things up on reassembly and NOT OVERTORQUE the bolts which would snap off the the plastic bolt retainers . A few of mine got broken by a dealer (I suspect) but I managed to fix/glue things up (another story !) . I...

    90HP Evinrude E-Tec

    Hot is not normal first thing to check is the impeller old ....new.... broken up... last changed ??? Next could be a stuck thermostat but change the impeller if age is unknown you are apparently not overheating enough and going into safe mode which is good but you need to fix...

    Max Throttle on 1995 Evinrude E150 GLEOM

    well in theory OB's are meant to be and like to be run like wild horses. it helps reach proper temperature, burn fuel properly and spitt out exhaust carbon gunk that can develop and accumulate overtime. if you plan on limiting the top RPMs to just slow down you may be creating...
