The iboats forum moderators are excited to announce that at this time it appears the iboats forums posting pictures function is working once again. Though we cannot promise for how long, we're hoping for indefinitely.
Well this 2002 johnson 150 has always had a little warm start problem since new. It is a fairly low hour motor with great compression. The thing runs great and idles good when cold. If you shut it off and let it sit for more than 10 min forget it. It takes like 10 or more tries to get it going...
Okay so we have a fourwinns with a 03 150hp on it. It hasnt run right since it was brand new. This thing has me stumped. Ive posted a few times on here trying to figure it out. It has gotton worse the last 2 years and im getting sick of this thing. The problem is it runs like crap just off of...
Well we have a 2002 tandom axle trailer. Over the years it has had a few problems with the brakes like to almost lock up while on the freeway and we were forced to keep going with the brakes smoking. That happened 1 or 2 times. It was caused by a bad back up solinoid. It maybe has a few thousand...
I'm doing the water pump on my 150 johnson on all o rings and gaskets like for the exhaust housing they want you to use there adhesive m or what ever it's called can i just use a little high temp rtv?
Thanks.:D
I going to order a new pump for a 2002 150hp johnson. The marina we keep it at says they servive it but they really only seem to work on io so I don't think it was ever replaced. I was only going to get the impeller and hoesing gasket or should i get the whole repair kit? Also the paint that can...
Well today I pulled out the 1956 15hp johnson that I just bought. It was tuned up and foged about a year ago. So I mixed up a 24:1 mix and she started pretty good. It pumps a ton of water. I think the impeller is new. Well if I run the throttle at shift it runs like butter. But after it was...
Well last year me and my freind picked up a used starcraft and trailer for 150$. It is in pretty good shape. Today we added a small fish finder too it and resealed up all the seams. Last year we ran a 5hp on it. We thought the worn out plate said 15hp max. So I bought a 1956 15hp johnson. Now...
Well yeater day I whent to meet a guy a at a aomci meet in ct and he sold me axacly what I wanted. It's a 1956 15hp johnson. For 200$ I got the outboard,tank and manuals.:D I'm happy that I got what I want for a good price. It must have low hours because It has great compression.
I may buy a 1956 15hp johnson now instead of the 1956 10 hp johnson. Is the 15 closly related to the 10hp or the 18hp? Or is it the 10 related to the 7.5 and the 15 and 18 related? Is it as easy to get parts for it a as a 10hp? Is this just as reliable as the others? Does it share the same lu as...
I have a 2002 180 fourwinns with a 2002 150 hp johnson on it. When I whent to a ss prop I stayed with the same pitch as the aliminum so I think my rpms dropped to around 5000. The prop was about 500$ so I would rather get a jack plate to get a little more rpm's out of her. I have never had a...
I use my boat on a large lake. The lake has alot of weeds and the pressure tube speedo always gets clogged and is not accurate. I also have a paddle wheel for my fish finder witch I believe to be pretty accurate. If I switched the pressure tube to the fitting on the outboard for my speed would...
Well I think I'll get of my lazy *** and finally fix up my 1966 5hp johnson.
First ? if I take the power head off what about the gasket under it? Can I just use high temp rtv?:rolleyes:
I got the service manual for my 2002 150hp johnson. I was reading about the linkage syncronization. I see you need a ignition anilizer. What if you don't have that. Do I need to get one?
thanks.
I want to get a service manual for a 2003 johnson 150hp. Are there any places that I could download it for free. If not where could I buy it?
Thanks.:D
Okay so I'm looking at two styles of older motors. I like the looks of the older 7.5hp evinrude but have also found some nice 9.5hp johnsons from the 1960's. I'm only looking at motors never used in salt water. The last old motor I bought was used in salt water and It was a mistake to buy it. So...
Well i'm slowly working on a 1966 5 hp johnson. One of the last parts I need is prop shaft because the old one is messed up. I know this is not a common motor but does any body have and idea where I could find one?:D
thanks.
