    1993 vs 1994 thru 2001 Johnson 9.9/15 Electric start Stator

    What is the difference between a 1993 and 1994 stator for an electric start 9.9/15hp motor? P/N 0585087 is listed from 1994 thru 2001, but for one year 1993, the P/N is 0584755. The plate the stator mounts to is P/N 0584781 and is listed for 1993 thru 2001 so the mouting of the stator did not...

    Convert 2000 9.9 to electric start - flywheel?

    Was wondering if the electric start flywheel for a 2000 Johnson 9.9/15hp motor will work with the stock coils on a rope start model? Aside from the teeth, the flywheels look identical (0584583 vs 0584584). The coils on the electric start model are different from the rope model. I'd like to...

    DIY Thermal Fuse for Overheat Protection 9.9hp for $15

    After a nasty overheat fried my powerpack, blew my headgasket, melted my thermostat housing, made a mess of my motor paint, I decided to look into thermal protection for my 2000 Johnson 9.9hp motor. Just because the motor is peeing does not mean it is cooling. I hit mud, pee went to brown...

    Have a Yamaha '06 25hp 2 stroke. Was wanting to know if the telltale is BEFORE the cylinder/case cooling circuit or AFTER the circuit? Basically, if I suck up a lot of mud and pack the Thermostat 'til it no longer flows, can I still get flow out the tell tale but no cooling to head...

    How to flatten cylinder head suface on block/case? 2000 9.9hp

    Had a low tide mud clogged intake, then overheat, then no start. Overheat was bad enough that it melted some plastic wires and blistered the paint. Anyway, diagnosed bad power pack. Replaced pack and started right up but would not go WOT. So I did compression test: 60/65psi. Was 95 before...

    The agony of neglect...

    How many motors have been layed to waste b/c previous owners left them out behind the shed? Anyway, I bought a 1972 6HP Johnson on Friday for $50. Owner said "ran great three years ago when I put it in storage...." Heard that one before? Upon inspection, it was locked up tighter than a gnat's...

    1970 Johnson 6hp - Do I need a rebuild? Compression, piston play, crank play...

    I have a '70 6hp that was running pretty good, but seemed like it should have more on HP at WOT on my 11' jon. So I did spark check. Would only jump 1/4" gap at most. Bought new coils/points/condensors and have installed onto mag plate, but not run yet. Have cleaned carb including under...

    1970 Johnson 6hp Motor Cowl replacement options - 4hp? 9.9hp?

    Have a 1970 Johnson and need a motor cover (or at minimum the gasket). Current cover has been smashed and gasket is cracked and half missing. Could repair, but would rather replace. Will a 4hp or 9.9hp cover from the late 60's/early 70's fit the '70 6hp? Were they all the same size? I have...

    Johnson 6hp motor fuel fitting does not shut off when disconnected

    Is the fitting at the motor supposed to seal off when you pull the fuel line? New to me '70 6hp. Runs great, no leaks at the fitting when the fuel line is connected, but when I pulled the fuel line, all the fuel in the line between the connector and pump dribbled out the fitting and into the...
