    very cool carb and intake manifold causing moisture

    I ran it in the inlet. I'm thinking E 10 is no longer here. They took the up to 10% stickers off the pumps. Who knows what ethanol percentage it is now without testing it. There are some flat areas on the roller that was also seized. I unstuck the roller and checked the sync which seems ok...

    very cool carb and intake manifold causing moisture

    Update. Running the marine gas made a difference for sure. Doesn’t stall at idle. It doesn’t seem to have the rpm’s and has a slight bump at full throttle. I’m gonna rebuild the carburetor and figure out how to check the timing. It’s a 1995 with a lot of hours and original parts. Any thoughts of...

    very cool carb and intake manifold causing moisture

    Update. I drained the gas tank and filled it with non-ethanol gas. Ran good in the driveway and it did not stall. Still some moisture but not as bad. It's been real hot and humid here in SC for sure. I'm hoping all it was is fuel and humidity. I will know Sunday and give an update.

    1995 Johnson J25REOR dosen't throttle up

    I have a 1995 Johnson J25REOR that coughs and stalls after idling for some time and doesn't throttle up. It will restart no problem. I replaced the power pack last year due to the same issue. I did disconnect the temperature sensor and was able to throttle up and get on plane. The water out of...

    I have a 2005 Johnson 115 PXSOR That is smoking real bad and has alot of sluge from the exhaust. All four spark plugs are soaked. The carbs were rebuilt last year year.
