    Johnson 50 hp air/fuel issue

    I also pulled the reeds and shined a flashlight into the carb opening. I can see a decent amount of light when viewing the ends and sides of at least 2 of the reeds for the bottom cylinder. The top cylinder reeds also show a little light but not as much as the bottom ones.

    Johnson 50 hp air/fuel issue

    As a test I pulled the shrouds which exposes the upper part of the driveshaft where it enters the crank. I sprayed a decent amount of wd40 through one of the reeds on the lower cylinder and none of it came out from the bottom of the crank area. Is that a good test?
