I would Like to repower with another Jonson OB, currently I have a 1991 Johnson 225 HP. Johnson only goes up to 175 HP unless I go with Evinrude. If I go Evinrude I would have to change out my controls, guages, etc. Right? <br /><br />Q: What was the last year that Johnson made the 225 HP? <br />Q: Is it as good as my current motor?

Re: Like to repower with another Jonson, Q:

Johnson and Evinrude use the same controls, gauges, and wiring harnesses. If you repower, you will need the MWS cable adapter if you use your old wiring. You will also need the 4 lite System Check gauge or the System Check tach, each with the 4 warning lites.<br /><br />The last 225 Johnson was 2001. They have a 4-stroke 225 for 2004.<br /><br />New motors have a warranty promotion until April. Johnson- 5 years, Evinrude - 7 years of warranty.
