    Johnson GT Ocean Pro

    You can't take a 10 and derate it to a 15....you can derate a 15 to a 10 though. Can a 10 be made into a 15? Yes, with different terminology. As marked, your motor is a 10 unless it's been modified. Why do you care? Just curious.

    1990 50 hp Johnson reed valves

    They don't like you bringing old threads back. Also, most people don't report back from a problem over a year ago. Start a new thread describing what is wrong and what you have read and lots of good people will reply. It's an easy mistake it's just against TOS.

    1996 ev 25 hp 2 stroke not peeing

    I have that motor....interesting pump on that, in fact we had someone a year or so ago that had a super hard time ordering the right pump kit. Seems the info on some part sites are incorrect. For me, buying any JohnnyRude outboard parts I go OEM first....then Sierra if I can't find in the oem...

    87 50HP VRO Evinrude - Could this be my problem?

    Wet or dry would give indications on where to look I had originally notice that you weren't setting the high idle before starting so possibly a flooding condition or spark is your problem. Spark plugs can tell a story.

    87 50HP VRO Evinrude - Could this be my problem?

    Have you tried pumping the primer ball when this condition exists? What do your spark plugs look like when all this is happening?

    1980 evinrude no water

    Take the male barbed adapter off off the block that the tell tale hose goes to. Start it ...if it's still dry and you think the impeller and kepper key is in correctly then your most likely plugged up somewhere.

    1988 Johnson 70hp - VRO or not to VRO?

    Yeah, an old employee of mine went north and became an operator for Chevron up there, equipment and trucks could never be shut off outside.

    pulse pack

    Sometimes people don't read the dates. Just start a new thread listing your motor model number, what the problem is and what you've read. Best way to get information.

    Silliest Question on Fuel Mix - Thank you for your patience

    And once again this thread also demonstrates that old school mechanics are set in their ways. I know they have bushings...and I also know that 24 to 1 is lots of oil. Much much better oil. Again, I stand by my statement that kbait gives excellent advice and I'm sure he's done it. Of the...

    1989 Johnson TJ50TLCEC No Spark

    Rectifier converts ac to DC power to charge the battery...running it unhooked will fry it. It does not affect it's ability to run though. You need a DVA adapter to test correctly but if everything checks out ohm wise replace the pack as directed.

    Silliest Question on Fuel Mix - Thank you for your patience

    Kbait's original suggestion will work fine. Never seen him give out any bad advice. With today's oils, I'm running all my older 2 strokes with less than their original suggested oil ratios with 0 failures. This boat, with it's 1985 30 HP johnson, I've been running 75/1 for 3 years. Not...

    1989 Johnson TJ50TLCEC No Spark

    Got confused with another thread...you have one power pack so that could be your problem. Rule out the stator/charge coil/chaffed wires then pp is the issue assuming all connection have been gone through. (Corrosion) Salt water motor?

    1989 Johnson TJ50TLCEC No Spark

    You made this statement..." my wire colors do look correct " max rules has color charts but you already must know. Continuity test on wires should come out with 0 resistance. Resistants for your stator coil will be listed online. All the ignition systems can be tested but the power pack. If...

    1989 Johnson TJ50TLCEC No Spark

    Sounds like it could be a bad wire...time to do some continuity testing. Wire or stator is my guess.

    Idles then dont

    Fuel issue, low idle circuit. Full speed that circuit is bypassed and run though the main jet. You most likely missed something cleaning the carbs.

    Idles then dont

    Should be set higher than that if there's no load. Possibly could be your problem.

    Idles then dont

    OEM parts? What rpm are you setting it to? In gear and under load?
