my 78 johnson 20 hp would not run right. I took it to a shop and told them to check it out. Two days later the guy calls and says its running...carb kit, tune up and water impeller ..total of 247.50. He also says I need a prop..He has used one for 50.00. He also says this is a commercial motor. Did I get taken and has anyone heard of a commercial 1978 johson?<br /><br /><br />mjhuntfish

$247 sounds pretty darn reasonable to me. I wouldn't charge that much, but I don't have any overhead.
