    1996 Johnson 15 carb settings

    I wonder if someone who has a manual for this motor might be able to tell me the initial setting for the carb? It’s currently not running without the choke out. Also do I need to adjust the screw on the left side I’m the top plastic piece? Not sure what the original setting ought to be. Thanks...

    Correct carb for 9.9 by serial number

    Will do, thanks. I was able to find a reference to it being from a 77 but I don’t know if that will work on an 86 if the same hp.

    Is a 1977 9.9 carb compatible to an 86 9.9?

    I have a friend looking for a carb to fit his 1986 Evinrude 9.9, not sure how one loses an entire carb but there you go...I have one from a 1977, are these compatible? Thanks

    Correct carb for 9.9 by serial number

    Ok thanks. It was actually stamped onto the carb body itself. I don’t think that portion was even on the parts lists I was able to find.

    Sailmaster 8 lower unit comparability with 7.5

    I have a 80’s 7.5 with a bad lower and potentially can buy a 90’s sailmaster for cheap. Are the lowers compatible? I’d prefer to put together one shirt shaft. Thank you

    J8rcnr and e8rcic lower units compatible?

    Are the lowers for these models interchangeable? I have an Evinrude with a bad lower and can buy a Johnson with a good lower unit that is like to swap out. Thanks

    Evinrude 30 won’t shift out of forward gear

    A friend of mine asked me to look at his 93 Evinrude 30. He bought it with a boat and was told it only started in forward gear at full throttle. I opened it up and it is a mess - leaky carb, I’m surprised with all the broken pieces the recoil even worked at all, but the one I can’t see an...

    9.9 stripped fuel pump mounting screw

    Title pretty much says it all. The motor is a 76 9.9 Johnson. Can’t tighten it up so the pump won’t draw fuel to the carb. If anyone can help me out, it would be greatly appreciated.

    1970 25 hp. Anything I should worry about?

    Currently running an 18 on my boat but I have a line on an inherited 1970 25 hp. Just wondering if that model has any gremlins I should know about before I attempt a resurrection. Thanks!

    1965 Johnson 18 hp backfires when starting

    Pretty much what the title says, I have an older Johnson 18 hp that I bought from the sister of a fellow who passed on. She told me he had put a fair amount of cash into it at a shop before he died. I didn't think much of it until i started to look under the hood and found all sorts of new...

    FD-19 shift rod linkage

    Long story short, I wanted to replace the impeller on my 65 Johnson 18, disconnected the top bolt on the shift linkage and now it doesn't want to shift to fwd. I believe the top portion of the shift rod isn't seating deeply enough in the linkage, therefore not pulling the shift rod up enough to...

    Johnson 15 model year from serial number?

    I picked up a 9.9 Johnson, but it appears a previous owner pried the tag off the thing. It turned out it is actually a 15 based on the carb and somebody just wanted to avoid a boat registration. Can anyone tell me what model year the Canadian serial number C0049960 might be from? Need few parts...
