Re: 1976 55 HP Johnson Control Box Locked Up
Ok so thanks for everyone's help. I decided to rebuild my control box. After cleaning every little part and re greasing, the controls work great. I guess it was locking up due to lack of lubrication. Works good now. Thanks

1976 Johnson Seahorse model number 55EL76E, serial number E4473745
I was out on the water the other day and my engine cut out.
The engine started good and I took off. About a mile later, the engine cut on and off and on and off just jerking the boat. I noticed the fuel line bulb was deflated...
