    1994 V4 115 Johnson Bubble back fuel consupmtion

    I have a 94 115 bibbleback that I converted to a conventional diaphragm fuel pump. I bypassed the VRO. Through this forum I was told to se a 1983 140 fuel pump. Works great and runs strong. It shutters a little in gear at low RPM but seems to idle and run great at WOT. What is normal fuel...

    1976 19 FT Glasply project.

    I picked up a cheap 19 ft cuddy boat as a project for next year. I know it is going to be an expensive project but need some questions answered. Did the 1976 have glass stringers? It has an old AQ171 without the exhaust manifold in it. It came with a spare block that has a cracked exhaust...

    1994 ish 120 Johnson looper power pack?

    I picked up a spare 120 motor figuring it would be a fun project and spare for my boat. I only have spark on Cylinder 2 so believe the pack needs replaced. Spark is bright so I am not guessing stator. Could the timerbase cause it to have spark only on one cylinder?

    AQ171 parts

    I picked up a 1976 Glasply that came with an extra AQ171 motor. The motor in the boat supposedly runs but needs the Exhaust manifold off the spare motor. Can I find a place still to at least buy a new exhaust manifold gasket?

    120 Johnson Model/year identification

    I picked up a spare motor to tinker with for cheap. Planned to use for spare parts but it looks like it's in pretty decent condition. Problem is I can not locate a tag with the model number anywhere. I am going to attempt to upload some photos.

    94 115 Johnson Does disconnecting VRO also bypass heat alarm?

    I have a 94 Johnson. 115 that had a 4 wire VRO. It now has a regular diaphram pump and the vro connector disconnected. Will the overheat alarm from 5he head temp sensors still work or do they run off the Vro circut board? If so can I just re-install the vro with a ports plugged and just clip the...

    AQ171 exhaust manifold

    I am looking at a 19 Ft Glasply with an Aq171 engine in it. The guy says it ran but needed a new exhaust manifol . I have read up on it and it appears that parts are very rare so pretty steeply priced. The hull appears to be in great shape and my brother in law has the identical boat and has had...

    94 115 Johnson bubble back Vro troubleshooting help

    Can get the boat to start after priming the ball but it runs the ball out of fuel. I can keep it running if I continue to pump the ball. I tried the fuel rebuild and now I cant even keep it running. Opened it up again to verify everything is installed right and still no luck. I pulled the pulse...

    1994 115 Johnson timing/fuel question. Wont stay running

    Starts cold and sounds good with the high idle lever slightly up. After running for about a minute or so and as it gets warm it dies. Even does this with the idle lever half up. Just rebuilt the fuel side of the pump so I dont believe it's that. It ran prior to me pulling it apart to replace the...

    1994 V4 115 Johnson Bubble back

    Had some help tinkering with the boat the other day and now I have a cracked carb bowl at one of the plugs. I can not find the part number for the plastic carb bowl. Online I can only find an aluminum bowl and it requires different intermediate orifices due to different size threads. Anybody...

    1994 115 Johnson V4 crossflow

    I picked up a starter boat as a project to play with. It has a 94 115 Johnson on it. I have hood spark and all 4 cylinders are at about 125 to 130 with a wet test. I rebuilt the carbs and have had a problem with the VRO No oil sensor. Did the Vro oil test and its seems fine. I am losing vaccum...

    1994 V4 115 Johnson Bubble back no oil alarm

    I have a 94 bubble back that keeps giving me the no oil alarm. Alarm comes after a few minutes of running. I replaced the oil tank cap in case it was not venting properly. All the oil lines appear in great shape and I just ordered a new VRO. Installed the new one and they shipped me one that is...

    1987 15HP Evinrude Carb cover

    I picked up a little 15 horse and thought I would just rebuild the carb to get it running. As always it's not that easy. The carb body cover has a crack in it. It almost feels like cast aluminum. Anyways I looked up the part online and noticed it does not look the same. I also noticed that the...

    94 115HP Crossflow oil Alarm

    I picked up a 17 Ft Glasply powered with a 115 Bubbleback johnson. Has spark and good compression. I changed the oil in the oil resevoir because what ever they had in it was smoking like a banshee. Replaced it with XD-50 oil. When I took it out the first time I ran it off and on from No wake...

    1994 115HP bubbleback alarm.

    Has good compression and spark. Already dealt with a overheat alarm via thermostats and pump. 1st test run the other day and and seemed to be missing one cylinder. Idled rough but planned out great. After an hour of up and down in speed it sounded an alarm. Shut it down immediately and gave it...
