I purchased a 1997 Johnson 50HP, Oil Injection. Ran great the first few times. Then an issue developed at about 3500 RPM, engine started acting up running very rough, shaking. Shutdown to idle and it stopped, put it drive again and it ran rough. Shut it down, then restarted. Ran fine up to the 3300-3500 rpm and the rough running started again. I did hear the low oil level warning go off. Oil tank was nearly full. Shut the engine down again, started up and kept the RPMS low and go home without issue. Started up motor today and the warning went off and engine was acting up in neutral very rough as above. I checked the oil tank, took out the float, nothing unusual. disconnected the oil line at engine there appears to be oil flow. I did note the squeeze bulb was pretty hard. Any thoughts on what the issue might be? Thanks for the help!
