The cam opens the throttle plate at the marks.-----See your manual for the correct adjustment of the stop on that rod !!

If this is a " battery powered " ignition , then you may have to OPEN the circuit to stop the motor.

If that rod opens carburetor too early the motor will stumble and stall.-----I often see that adjustment wrong.-----It looks wrong when it is correct.

Yes , you can bore out #2 alone.----But first see if you can find an O/S piston and rings.

Nope------Powerpack has nothing to do with charging the battery.-----Work carefully as smoke from wires in the wrong place is expensive !!

Repairing the carburetor takes very beer tokens and no time.-----The total teardown of the powerhead is going to take a lot of both.-----First see if 3 new pistons and machine work is available and in your budget !!.----Pistons may be hard to find.

Motor needs a rebuild.---Simple as that.-----And you need to correct what caused this or it will fail again !

Looks like BC.----Determine condition of running engine.-----Determine condition of the drives.-----If good then rebuild / repair the bad engine.----Sell the boat.

That is one of the models that needs a new impeller every 2 years.-----Also looks like it might have been run dry a few times.

Looks like the block was replaced.----I see nothing wrong with the sparkplug.

The early twin outboard set ups were both standard rotation.-----Opposite rotation is nice to have.

It is difficult to determine spark quality by using the plugs,-----Harder yet in broad daylight.

Electric start ?-----How are you testing spark?------Or does spark not jump a gap of 5/16" on a test device ?

The 97 model Johnson 4 stroke is NOT a Suzuki built motor.

Seen lots of rings stuck with carbon.

Need to know when impeller was changed.----And it might just need low speed mixture screws opened 1/8th turn at a time to see if keeps running.

There is nothing special on that bearing.----Take the number to a local bearing place and get it for $10 or so.

I could rebuild that motor with hardly a glance at a manual.-----I think you need to learn a wee bit of trouble shooting !----Good luck with it.----Note ---I own about 10 or 12 inline 6 Mercury motors.
