    Johnson 150 V6 Ocean Runner - not starting

    Lets say it was the powerpack that needed replacing (if no good spark is present) is that fair assumption?

    Johnson 150 V6 Ocean Runner - not starting

    Thank you. I did use a wire brush on plugs, but the wiring bundle near back of engine, appears to have significant corrosion so I suspect all of it to be original wiring - 1993 (like the starter was). So likely that I do have a poor ignition system (low spark which is highly likely). Batteries...

    Johnson 150 V6 Ocean Runner - not starting

    Thank you. Do you know if there are specific cylinders it disables electric on the coil from?

    Johnson 150 V6 Ocean Runner - not starting

    Also, original wiring from 1993 does not look to be 100%…pretty sure one of the overheat sensors isn’t wired right.

    Johnson 150 V6 Ocean Runner - not starting

    I was able to get a spark with the NGK plugs. I only tested two of the six cylinders on one bank. The spark seemed weak to me, but it was present.

    Johnson 150 V6 Ocean Runner - not starting

    Rebuilt the carbs, new plugs, and starter. Was running for a month and then no more. Heavy black deposits on NGK plugs I had in there....went and bought new Champion spark plugs (per another iboats thread) and they wont even generate a spark when I test them. The NGK's still generate a spark...

    Johnson 150 v6 - fuel pump location

    The VRO pump was disconnected prior to me purchasing the boat. I was hearing a clicking noise at the VRO and disconnected that power harness to the VRO pump. Question is - does the fuel pump require any electricity from the VRO pump wiring harness, or is it a simple diaphragm assembly? Seeing...

    Johnson 150 v6 leaking gas at idle

    Thanks for all the replies - found some leaking carbs and picked up gasket kits (to arrive today). Anyone know the Johnson 150 V6 carburetor bolt torque specs?

    Johnson 150 v6 leaking gas at idle

    Yes it really does sound like a BAD idea. Carbs are warped, does the rebuild kit come with the plastic sides and gasket. Would you mind pointing me to part # or link? This caught my "fix it quick" eye "Permatex MotoSeal 1 Ultimate Gasket Maker" For two and four cycle engines. Solvent-based...

    Johnson 150 v6 leaking gas at idle

    I replaced all line fuel fittings (was zip ties) with stainless hose clamps. Snugged carb bolts. Still leaking from side of carb - warped is the plastic cover and brown gasket. Second issue of lower unit - thank you forgot about prop seals etc. Its been 10 years since my last johnson and boat...

    Johnson 150 v6 leaking gas at idle

    I have checked a few videos online, so appears to be something the pump, lines, carbs, or vapor separator. Also, changed the lower unit and found grey oil (so water in it). I have changed that lower unit oil out, and fingers crossed that it wont be gray again. If it is - would love advice on...

    Johnson 1998 VRO clicking

    my Johnson 1998 50 spl is leaking at the bottom through a hose and clicking alot. Do these units click from flow problems due to bad hoses? I appears that I was getting too much oil as it was coming out of the exaust and dripping out from under the vro.

    Tilt & Trim leak

    I have a 1998 Johnson Tilt & Trim that is leaking from the top where the rod goes in. I picked up the o-ring kit and replaced o-ring, but still leaks. I am confident that I dont know which washers are used for the piston entry point. I looked at the exploded diagram on Johnson's web site I am...
