    Rings for 4006E

    I would start with trying another gauge to confirm those numbers. Any idea when the last time was ran?

    Johnson 55 crank threads

    If it were me I would clean them up with a small triangle file. Work slow and carefully. Patients Pays.

    Johnson 55 flywheel nut differences

    I can’t say for sure but my guess is you will need the extra height of the original to get the recoils components on and still catch enough threads on the crank. Just a thought.

    Just Cut out the Kill Switch?

    Using it can save your life and the life of others. Not having one can cost you a hefty fine in some states.

    Starboard cylinders overheating, but no thermostat installed

    Agreed on checking with another gauge to confirm these numbers. Do you plan on pulling the heads to check the diverters. I’m sure you will find even more crud there as well. Best

    E-tec 40 hp

    Roll on truck bed liner. It’s tough stuff and UV resistance is great.

    Lapping flywheel

    A little less compound would be helpful imo. Also I once saw a guy coat the crank with a marker and rotated the flywheel on the shaft to check for wear points. I have never done it personally but it looked like it was a good way to check the fit.

    $250 Boat in my possession!!

    I used a product called SeaCast to rebuild a transom once. Its a great product. My transom was so rotten I didn’t even have to cut the glass on the inside or out. I was able to dig out all the rot it was so far gone. It is very important to get ever last chunk of wood out if you go this route.

    Johnson 55 hp electric start conversion.

    Agreed. That’s all I did on an 02 40hp. I charge the battery at the start of summer and keep it topped off with a solar charger. It lasts all season with not problems.

    Boat with engine ($500 update)

    Sounds like an interesting and kool job. I still have a 1990 Toyota 4Runner that has a perfect frame and still has stickers on it in some places. Only one spec of rust on the body and it won’t be there much longer. I have also had an 05 Tocoma and an 06 Tundra. Both were in perfect condition...

    JOHNSON 55 HP TILT PIN QUESTION

    I’m not sure why you would need a tilt pin if you have tilt assist. If you need to change your pitch you can move the bottom pin of the tilt assist cylinder to the appropriate whole.
