Re: 1974 50Hp johnson outboard Mod# 50ESL74M
tashasdaddy, thanks for the reply. Yes i have the big red plug..I took apart the CB and where the for/rev cables run through a tensioner or something. Theres is a black plastic piece that clicks into the handle which looks like brass knuckles, one of the knuckles was broke off, i will post a picture tomorrow. Do they have a schematic or parts catalog on them, i can find anything. I plan on doing the cables, but thought if i had to buy a new CB why waste the extra cash.
we tested the motor last night and had good compress #1-160 #2- 155
jusy hope the lower unit works cant really tell until i can get the control box working properly. to ingage the gears. I got the propeller to spin in forward but couldnt get reverse.
