Hello, I?ve looked arround a while now and cant seem to find any information on this motor that I have.
It is a Johnson 6 hp Seahorse with a Serial no. B29216 and model no. 6BA78B
A friend gave it to me, and told me it would not start and it doesn?t. So I checked the compression and it came out no good (almost no compression). I took off the head and saw that there was about 2 millimeter (0.078 in) gap in the gasget between the cilinders, and there I think the problem lies. I can feel the suction in the carb when I turn the motor so the reed valves must be ok.
Questions are:
Where is the best place to order spare parts for this motor? And it has to be through the internet and someone thats ships worldwide, since I?m not a US resident.
And what year is this motor?
Greatful for all comments.
sincerely Arthur.
