    How interchangable are parts between a 1987 Foce 50 and a 1991 Force 35

    I have a 1987 Force 50, which overheated and I'm trying to replace it with a 1991 Force 35. What are you thoughts on keeping the Force 50 as a parts motor for the 35? The power head between the two looks quite different. I'm not sure if the lower unit are compatible. What do you think?

    1971 Johnson Super Sea Horse 40 HP with starting trouble after stop

    Hi Everyone. I'm looking to buy a fixer-upper outboard and found a 1971 Johnson Super Sea Horse 40 HP. The problem is that it starts and runs and idles, but once you turn it off it has trouble starting until it cools down a little. Normally, I would say the problem is the carb. But that...
