    1994 Johnson Fast Strike 150 dies when it warms up

    Yes! I followed up on a different site, but forgot to here. So I ended up discovering that the Powerhead was replaced with a newer one prior to me getting it. Although I had it rebuilt and have bought parts based on the model number on the transom it was all stuff that happened to match up. The...

    Fast Strike 150 GLERV hoses

    Follow up... I connected the hoses in the configuration you described and my fuel starvation issue went away on the muffs. I haven't lake tested yet, but the simple fact that it was still happening repeatedly on muffs before I made this change and now it's not seems to be pretty solid evidence...

    Fast Strike 150 GLERV hoses

    I just looked up your model number and the 150EXECD and 150GLERV are similar, but the differences that I see are the differences I have found in mine! I think I just found the main source of my confusion. I think that my powerhead was replaced sometime prior to me with a newer one and even the...

    Fast Strike 150 GLERV hoses

    It's a 94'. I'll look on that page when I get home tonight. I could've just missed it. Correct, but I was trying to figure out which goes to the inlet/outlet of the pump. I can only assume that the center nipple on the pump is the inlet and the one on the front upper side is the outlet, but...

    Fast Strike 150 GLERV hoses

    I've had some recent issues come up with my engine that I've worked through for the last couple of months as I've had time. I finally worked it all out. Found several small issues that resulted in some somewhat bizarre symptoms. Anyway, I put everything back together and second guessed my hose...

    1994 Johnson Fast Strike 150 dies when it warms up

    I haven't followed up on this post in a while, mainly because I still haven't figured it out, and also because I have embarrassingly overlooked some obvious stuff. Apparently after waiting for it to "cool down" for a good while I would naturally pump the bulb to prime the system again out of...

    1994 Johnson Fast Strike 150 dies when it warms up

    So, for anyone interested, I was finally able to carve out a few minutes to poke at my engine last night and found that there were multiple bolts that had worked loose on the stbd side intake manifold. One actually backed all the way out and the other two were ~hand tight. I busted all of the...

    1994 Johnson Fast Strike 150 dies when it warms up

    Awesome feedback. I think I need to get back to the basics. I replaced it the 2nd time because the 1st time I replaced it based on information from a seasoned Johnson mechanic and it cleared up for 6 or 7 trips. I thought I got a cheap part that went out. Basically just throwing parts at it...

    1994 Johnson Fast Strike 150 dies when it warms up

    Yes sir. I agree. I ohmed coils cold and hot, and they should be fine. I can't recall the resistance reading that I was getting, but remember that it was within .002 of being identical across all 6. This is why I've been through two new power packs thinking that the pack was bad and coils are...

    Ohhh, I left out that I've replaced the rectifier and power pack. Actually two power packs now...

    1994 Johnson Fast Strike 150 dies when it warms up

    The title says it all as for the problem. I crank it, it fires right up (on muffs and in the lake), it will blast off, but only until it's warm then it bogs down and eventually dies. Then it won't even fire back up until hours later after it's cooled off again. The same thing happens on muffs...
