Re: Johnson 35 HP

Hey Dayton!! Welcome to iboats.<br /><br />When ya' say grease...do ya' mean oil or gear lube? I'm gonnal throw a bunch of questions at ya'.<br /><br />What color is it? Dark black gooey looking or light amber color?<br /><br />Have you drained and checked the lower unit to see what shape the gear lube is in and if there is any water in the gear case?<br /><br />What year are we talking about? If ya' don't know or not sure...post the model number. We can help.
