    Trim motor 3 or four bolts?

    I am looking at changing the trim motor on my 130, 1998 Johnson. I can see three bolts but if there is a fourth it looks impossible to get at. I have not been able to find the correct part number for my motor, J130txacb. I'm hoping for a three bolt model, but it don't look good.. If there is a...

    Kill wire giving me the jerks

    I am troubleshooting the black/yellow kill wire on a Johnson 130 hp (all the plugs removed) If the engine rests for 24 hours, with the ignition switch on, and a continuity check at the black/yellow wire shows full open, the plugs fire, and will continue until the switch is turned off (that is...

    Spark testing

    I’m using an adjustable gap spark tester. When I attach one end of the tester to the plug wire and clip the other end to the plug I get a healthy spark, three out of four plugs. One plug, with the tester assembled the same way, no spark. Tried another plug, no spark, but when I attach one end to...

    Phantom hose

    1998 Johnson 130 (manifold part #46?) A hose running to the upper nipple of the silencer. I cut a piece off temporarily. Now I want to replace it, but it has hidden itself behind a carburetor. What is the purpose of that hose? I don’t want to remove a carburetor for...

    Throttle Body

    I started cleaning the carburetors on my Johnson 130. Looking at the carb end of the motor I started with the left bank. The fuel pocket behind the needle valve is accessible, but after reassembly of the left bank the right bank is not. Is it usual to clean out the pockets in the throttle...

    Shift cable bind

    A 1998 130hp Johnson. Replaced the shift cable. The cable binds. Every thing works smooth until the cable ends are hooked up. The only thing I see as a problem is that the cable connection ends do not lay flat at the connection points. The ends are off about 45 degrees. I cannot think of a way...

    Johnson 130 water tube errosion

    I rebuilt and reinstalled the water pump. About ?" of the water tube had eroded away. The pressure is holding at 10 psi. Water is coming out of the lower joint to mid section, which I assume it is some water is leaking past the tube. The shop quote to replace the tube is $2,500. A silly...

    Installing the lower unit

    With the lower unit in the full up position, I?m getting too old to jostle the unit around until the shaft teeth mesh. What I?ve been doing is, with the engine full up, and getting the lower unit set in until I get about a two-inch gap, I tie it off with a rope and lower the unit down until the...

    Maximum Spark Advance

    I have a 1998 130 Johnson. I am toying with the idea of performing a ?Maximum Spark Advance? procedure. I bought the engine new and have never messed with it. I recently did a lot of carburetor work (remove and replace). My Clymer?s manual says to run the motor at 4500-5000 rpm without the prop...

    Carburetor Leaking

    1998 Johnson 130. A lower carburetor is leaking gas when in the tilt up position, no leak in the down position even when running. It appears coming from the screw on the lower housing ahead of the high-speed jet. I?ve changed out the float and nozzle parts, I?ve doubled up on the ?o? ring seal...

    Carb. Spring Clips

    A 1998 Johnson 130 H.P., recently rebuilt carbs, then remembered a caution note in the manual to have the ?spring clips? that hold the needle to the float tab positioned to the left side. I cannot remember if I installed left or right. Any significance to what side the clips should go?

    One for the books

    Went to replace my in-line filter and got a surprise. The plastics were crumpled and melted by ethanol. The inside cartridge was floating and could be shaken from side to side inside the housing. I took it to West Marine for a replacement and discovered that the Moeller and West Marine sell...

    A wierd gas tank vent line, maybe?

    I have a 30+-year-old 18? CC and the gas tank vent is acting like a pickup tube. If I try blowing into the vent line it has a stop and no air will pass. If I apply a vacuum only fuel comes out through the tube. I?m thinking the tank was built with two pickup tubes; one in front and one in the...
