1975 Johnson tell tale conversion

[airman1094]

So I've decided to retrofit my v4 115 from 75 to have the tell tale! The process is straight forward, and there is a thread in the FAQ about it. I know to place it on the starboard upper cylinder to prevent an air pocket. Is there anything else I need to do with it? Like looping the hoses? Check valves? Just feels like I'm missing something!

Nope....that about covers it. It is as straight forward as you can get. Just be sure where ever you install it that it doesn't interfere with anything else or goes into the cylinders themselves. Other than that...have at it... If you already read other posts about installing one, you are ready to do yours...

Sounds good to me...it will sure beat taking off hoses to check if the impeller is pumping!
