Johnson 1975 85hp V4 - I have a Factory Service Manaual
Tried to start her for the first time, took a little while and only would start with warm up lever around midway. Runs fairly rough, lot of vibration/ shakes the boat a bit - still on trailer. As I continue to push the warm up lever down to get it to where it would go into gear, the motor dies.
Both cards fully rebuilt
All new fuel lines
Reeds in good shape
New fuel filter
New Plugs
New gas, tank filter clear
Could this be a timing issue? It seems like it might be missing.
The rpm don't sound smooth and I don't get why it won't start with the warm up lever pulled up fully and dies when it is pushed all the way down. Only runs in the middle and very roughly.
This boat ran great for years, I fogged it, it sat for 7 years and now it doesn't.
Please help, I am about 500 hours into rebuilding the boat, all ready for our family beach trip next week minus a running engine. Damn details will kill ya.
