I found a 6hp johnson today around 1970 or 1971 and the ignition cam and the plastic cam follower from the carb are worn down..... It looks like the cam has ground down and it cut into the plastic follower. I have some better pictures but for some reason I cant down load them... Is this a normal problem? I picked up the motor for 50 dollars with a tank... It started on the second pull... I was pleased because I was told it was not started for several years... it has 100 psi on both by my gauge... The filter cap on the fuel pump is cracked so it has a problem to stay running.But it seems to be worth working on...
