I have a 1989 60Hp Johnson that I am having trouble with the Primer Solenoid. It has been working (clicking that is) but the motor has been very hard to crank even with the primer solenoid. I have checked the voltage on the primer solenoid and have voltage. Is there repair kits for these primer solenoids? Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

pull the small hose off the top of the top carb. pump up bulb till hard, now activate primer, gas should come out the hose. if it does not, you have a clogged primer system.
