Hi, all.
I'm a newbie with a 1981 25hp Johnson.
My OMC service manual covers the 25hp and 35hp models for 1981.
I was reading and trying to understand where the 35hp model
gets the extra hp from?
In comparing the Powerhead specs, seems most of the numbers are the same, e.g. piston displacement is 31.8 cu in. on both motors.
The only difference I saw was the Tank test Wheel Number and Full throttle operating range.
25hp... Wheel Number 388880, 5200rpm
35hp... Wheel Number 386891, 5300rpm
25hp... Full throttle operating range 4500-5500 rpm
35hp... Full throttle operating range 5200-5800 rpm
I don't know what this means.
Can someone enlighten me?
thanks,
jasper
