    Prestolite starter assembly

    Um, the battery OK? Did you have it load tested? Have you done voltage drop tests on the cables? So you say there are magnets in the starter? Interesting. Yeah you might as well run out and buy a new solenoid. Everybody else does. Good for my stock in the solenoid factory.

    The trailing letter indicates any mid-year engineering changes that were made--IF any were made. Otherwise it means nothing.

    1956 Johnson 6hp versus evinrude 6hp pros and cons

    Think of it this way. At one time the 7.5 and 5.5 were sold side by side. A 6hp is basically the same motor as the old 5.5. IF the 7.5 will plane the boat but the 6 cannot there will be a considerable increase in speed.

    Surging Johnson 6 hp.

    I have a suspicion that the fuel pumps won't work properly at the extremely high RPM's you are turning. Never have tried it though, and probably never will.

    1978 Johnson 85 HP Choke Issues

    No wonder you are getting so many incorrect replies. I wonder how many other things are wrong. Does it even have the correct carburetors? Or did somebody swap out some bigger carbs in a go-faster attempt?
