    40 johnson

    I need some help. I have a 1999 40hp Johnson. I have been slowly but surly solving issues since I bought the boat and motor. My issue is it is hard to start when in water. At home on the hose this motor takes one revolution and she is started and will set and idle all day. In the water it starts...

    I thought the M meant they were OEM, but wasn't sure. If I understand your saying the coils are good? The other thing I saw which i forgot to mention. I noticed taking coils off that the black wire was under the screw on the opposite side of coil as the the one in the tutorial. I don't see how...

    Later that same day. Removed coils. Multi meter reads .7 to .9 on green and black leads, with a little up and down. Plug wire peg reads 4.54 on both coils. Checking coils part # is 512154. my research shows these fit 1957 5 1/2 hp. I would think they would at least throw a spark of some kind...

    I got original alum prop with boat and have reinstalled it. I think owner was trying to gain some push and help on turns by going smaller and more twist. The cavitation is something that happens at top speed on tighter turns, and I can deal with that. Not running flat out and turning hard much...

    I believe I could go as high as 115hp max but have no need for that much motor, and don't like pushing things to the limit. The boat is a 1997 16ft wellcraft, center console. Nice solid heavy boat. I would be fine with a 50hp if I could find one. The way it is rigged now on a jack plate with...
