    1982 Johnson 50Hp won’t start

    Well, its running anyways. After you replaced the reed valves did you backfire it more? Was that through the carbs? If so wondering what they look like now.

    1982 Johnson 50Hp won’t start

    Your probably good. Getting past my experience level. Check for GOOD spark and post...let's see if others know where to check next. Would have thought your motor would have been good once wire was corrected.

    8hp Evinrude running poorly.

    Maybe, it has the rich/lean screw on the right side like your old one. 86 was in the front. What you hope now is you don't have two crappy carbs!

    1982 Johnson 50Hp won’t start

    7/16 spark jump. Yes, power pack. Did you mess with anything under the flywheel before? And if so is everything lined up correctly?

    anyone know what year this looper is . no plate or welch numbers

    I was thinking late 80's early 90s. Here is a cowling for a 90's. Looks like it to me.

    1982 Johnson 50Hp won’t start

    Also, if you have a three wire plug, like the one on your wire schematic, make sure a,b and c are all correct from both sides.

    1982 Johnson 50Hp won’t start

    Do you have an inline or a spark length tester? Check for GOOD spark. Otherwise you will need to go through your wiring I suppose. You might have fried something.

    1982 Johnson 50Hp won’t start

    With all the unburnt fuel it's bound to be smokey. When you switched coils did you switch plug wires too? Test or switch plug wire.

    8hp Evinrude running poorly.

    I think your going to find a lot of differences between the 86 carb and yours.

    1993 Evinrude 200 TXT Peeing but no water at thermostats

    Probably ocean residue stopping it all up. Was it overheating? Were you missing any water pump impeller fins? Time to pull some covers and see how plugged up it is and clean. I assume salt water use.....

    1994 150 after few minutes it's like you turn key off let cool for 5 min and will go another few min and repeat

    Yes, my guess would be optical sensor first then power pack. Start by testing the sensor with an ohm test ....many online forums on how to do this.

    1982 Johnson 50Hp won’t start

    Funny, your diagram shows the color coded wire from the power pack but not to the coil, nor does it say which coil it goes to. Also, no legend as to what the wires color codes mean. I could see how that could mess someone up.

    9.9 electric start

    That's ok, sometimes that's just best. At least you posted this. Pretty sure that was your problem.

    Fuel Pump Bad?

    So read this from Leroy's ramblings. It's your motor but scroll down to the fuel pump part. I've never worked on that pump but if you read this it says you can use the newer small sq. type pump (probably the 76 one Racer said to use) but you need two longer screws. The earlier ones you had to...

    Side mount?? Binnacle?? Are you saying, "you can get full range out of the throttle?

    Fuel Pump Bad?

    There might be someone on here that knows where to get something, if memory serves me, but in leroys ramblings he says there unavailable. I think you have to convert to a newer style. Hopefully someone will help you out here.

    Heating Johnson

    I hope you didn't put the frozen hockey puck back in...that wouldn't make any sense These outboards do not need high octane gas just no ethanol. You can Google non-ethanol fuel near you.
