    What else? - rough idle

    I have a '67 Johnson 33hp motor, model RXL-15 (maybe RXE, can't quite remember). First, the motor does run and starts fine when the throttle is up halfway, BUT when I put the throttle all the way down, it shakes, sputters and dies. However, if I idle it just a bit faster, it stays running...

    new thrust washer

    I have a 67 Johnson 33hp (RXL-15, I believe). Anyway, I needed a new propeller thrust washer, part number 304576. Being an older motor, it's hard to find on the internet. Could anyone help direct me to find this part or something that is equivalent? Thanks.

    smart tabs - which to choose

    Hello. I was thinking about getting smart tabs for my boat for better performance. However, looking at the tabs, I was curious on which hp rating I should choose. I have a 14 ft runabout with a 1967 Johnson 33hp motor. Should I get the tabs for a 20-25 hp motor or 30-40 hp motor? Just...

    fuel pump conversion

    Re: fuel pump conversion I just got back from the storage, and I pulled the bypass cover. Below is a picture. It is about 2" at its widest and 3" at its longest (the picture shows the cover on its side). One concern I have, the metal housing where I would drill is actually pretty thin. I'm...

    fuel pump conversion

    I just picked up a 1956 Evinrude 10 hp motor. I wanted to convert this to a fuel pump system. I've seen a few different ways of doing this for different horsepower motors. However, I was wondering if the method in the following link would work for my model motor? (Model #10012-10626)...

    will this work?

    For the spring/summer, i am thinking on buying a small outboard to run my 14 ft glasspar lido for the lakes that require less than 10 hp. I am finding quite a bit of older 7.5 Johnson/Evinrudes for sale used. How well would this work for my boat? I would have no more than 2 people on the...

    Glaspar Lido structure

    I have a '57 or '58 glaspar lido. I stripped the boat to fix the transom (the floor was left in as it was in good condition). After thinking about it, I wanted to make this more "fishing friendly" by creating more standing/walking room on the boat, so I was thinking that I didn't want to...

    stalls at idle johnson 33hp

    My motor stalls at idle. I could get it started at a higher rpm (putting the throttle up in the middle), but it stalls at idle when I bring the throttle down whether in gear or in neutral. I've got spark on both cylinders, compression is good (btw 105 and 110 on both cylinders), points are...

    tachometer for Johnson Super Seahorse 33hp

    I have a '67 johnson super seahorse 33hp motor. I was wondering if there is a tachometer that is compatible with this motor. Looking at other threads, I cannot find anything about installing tachs on older motors. My motor does not have a generator.

    Johnson super seahorse 33 hp compatibility

    I have a '67 super seahorse 33 hp, and I have an opportunity to buy a '68 evinrude 33hp motor for parts for cheap. Are these motors compatible. I am unsure of the model of the evinrude, but I do have a picture. If you can help me out, that'd be great.

    johnson 33 hp-dies when choke is released

    I have a 1967 Johnson RX-15c 33 hp motor on a 14' Glaspar Lido Runabout. The problem I have is that when I pull the choke (it has a manual choke) the motor starts, but once I release the choke, the motor dies. Here's a little background info. I bought the boat last year, and when I took it...
