    87 johnson 30 throttle help

    Okay, now I'm even more confused. I looked online and can't find a picture and my boat is up at a summer place I own. I'll take pictures when I go up next but again at the very tip of the throttle cable (from a remote box) there is a hole and I just put it over the peg that comes up from the...

    1984 35 hp cough/sneeze

    OMC ran a service bulletin on that engine. You are supposed to run the timing mark up 1/4 to 1/2 an inch when setting that mark. Mine had the same problem and worked correctly after resetting to that mark. Lots of info on the web related to what I just said.

    8hp Johnson water out of exhaust

    Compression is a little low but I've seen them run fine all the way down to 90lbs. Its not holding pressure because your compression tester wont let it go down unless you release your pressure. You would have to do a leak down test in order to do that and most likely that is not your problem. I...

    87 johnson 30 throttle help

    Hey All, I have a 1987 Johnson 30 horse on a 16 ft. Lund. The throttle cable that runs from a standard omc (red plug) side mount control box is popping off back at the motor. The engine has a small block on the port side off the engine that supports the adjusting block of the cable and then a...

    Johnson sail master

    Plenty of water when you fill the bucket, at least for starting and slow in gear running. I purchased the mount years ago from Second Wave in Fremont which was located in Seattle. Campion does provide you with any way to mount a kicker and its done a great job of doing just that. I have no idea...

    Johnson sail master

    Still wondering why it runs funny with the plug out or in but here are pictures. 1st one is the redheaded stepchild or maybe I should call it a Frankenstein, the second one is the correct model, 3rd one is the 5 inch spacer, 4th is the short shaft that I made into a long shaft that runs great...

    Johnson sail master

    My extension is 5 inches. The part you show looks like for a extra long shaft. Are the sail master's supposed to be an extra long shaft?

    Johnson sail master

    No, I did a water tube extension on the short shaft...they sell them but I made my own. Same scenario though on the original one that is a long shaft to start with. It had the wrong foot so it must have had the wrong 5 inch extension piece. The Evinrude/Johnson parts breakdown does not show the...

    Johnson sail master

    One more question, I was looking at some Sail masters online and it looked like the 5 inch spacer had some notches in them...mine doesn't. Could that be the problem? (excess exhaust pressure)

    yamaha t-8 tilt motor

    I have a 2004 yamaha t8 with power tilt. Took the motor cover off the tilt so I could clean up some rust and paint it (They call it the tilt stator) and one of the magnets came loose. Funny it was working prior to that. They want an arm and a leg for that replacement part anyone know where I can...

    Johnson sail master

    Didn't really explain why do they run bad with the long shaft set up? Both are the same plug in or plug out. Motors are almost identical, shifter on the front so I know they are compatible. The original engine with the long shaft had the wrong gearcase but the matching part number is now on...5...

    Johnson sail master

    Here is a head scratcher for you. I purchased a 1990 6 hp johnson sailmaster a number of years ago and it seemed to work fine when I bought it. Put it on my boat as a kicker motor and it had a lot of engine noise and didn't run very well. Stuck it in the garage and didn't really look at it again...

    1977 evinrude 35 hp

    Hey everyone, Helping my neighbor with his 1977 evinrude 35 horse. Fixed most stuff and cleaned up some stuff someone else messed up. Running good. Removed the bolts and nut that hold the gear case on so I could pull it and change out the water pump. Anyone know where to undo the shift shaft on...

    03 yamaha t8 4 stroke

    I have a 2003 yamaha t8 four stroke that starts and idles fine but when you throttle up it bogs down. I thought dirty carb so I cleaned it twice and the same thing happened. Fuel pump is fine with 4 lbs of pressure. I put a new coil on it and still the same. A friend of mine had one he wasn't...
