Re: '69 Johnson "Surfer" 300 buick V8
got the boat running! ..sounds great! , kinda mean actually.. but that just on land with a hose attached to it ..they all sound mean like that ..lol.. havent put it in the water yet , it has a couple needs first ..it wont turn off..i have to unplug a positive wire coming to the dist to kill it..thats why it wasnt running , it never turns off ,so it fried the points a little. all i had to do was file the points a little and switch a couple plug wires to get it going. i need new bilge hoses as they cracked in half when i went to move em..lol..and then an oil change and it should be ready for a water test .. i will keep it on the trailer and make sure it doesnt try and sink before i do some laps .. thanx for your help everyone
