    1998 Johnson Ficht low compression 1 cylinder

    Johnson 2 stroke Fuel Injected 115 HP Model J115FTLECS Hey everyone I was out running around and the engine decreased in power and then started running poorly so I shut it off and ran back to the boat ramp on my kicker. What I found was that 1 cylinder (port side bottom) now has low...

    Johnson model J115FTLECS 115hp 2 stroke 2 cylinders not firing

    I did clean the float needle and started it up. The float appears to be operating normally because the fuel is no longer pouring out the vent line. Also when I pump the Primer bulb it's getting hard, whereas before the fuel would just escape the vent line. When I have a chance this weekend...

    Johnson model J115FTLECS 115hp 2 stroke 2 cylinders not firing

    So I have determined the float is the problem. While it is functioning up and down without an issue and the tank was clean of any debris its not stopping fuel from running out the line at the top and its flooding the 2 cylinders which aren't running. I think my only option is to replace the...

    No I appreciate any information.....I'm by no means an outboard expert so I'm sure I have omitted some useful information. I know these engines have been problematic and if I can fix this inexpensively I'll keep it, otherwise it might be time for a new one.

    Johnson model J115FTLECS 115hp 2 stroke 2 cylinders not firing

    I've had the boat for 22 years.....it was running fine up until a few weeks ago. The wires haven't been messed with so they should be fine.

    Johnson model J115FTLECS 115hp 2 stroke 2 cylinders not firing

    Ive got 2 cylinders that are not firing, same side of the engine. I've checked for spark and it's good (also changed out coils, cables and plugs) I'm getting fuel I believe because it's leaking out of the air intake and unburned oil gas mixture is coming out of the exhaust. It seems to run fine...
