1977 Johnson 70hp 2 stroke 120 lbs compression on all three cylinders runs very strong. Turns a older 3 blade right to 6000.

So being a complete newbie to out boards i am seeking some direction, made simple the motor was checked for compression yielding some poor results. Cyl 1 110 cyl 2 20 cyl 3 90 psi. Carbs starter ignition actually every thing aside from the sea pump is in good working...
I have recently run into this outboard it belongs to a close friend, so before starting it I replaced the water pump. No problems getting it off but now I cant get the last inch to mate up.It was disassembled in the forward gear released the shifting rod etc, it goes in smoothly I try to rotate...

My power steering cooler is leaking and I was about to replace it then I began wondering what on earth for. With today's modern oil and the low temps that exist on a marine engine is this just overkill on a little I/O...
The temp gauge has taken on a new life that is when at idle it run's a solid 165 no bouncing rock steady as it always been. Now when I go on plane it drops to 120...3500 rpm and above. Ive replaced the sender unit with the exact same result's. The engine and riser's do run cool and I can see and...
