1976 Johnson 85 HP Bolt Size

Is anyone aware of the shoulder bolt that holds the bellcrank and shoulder pin assembly. Also, I stripped out the female part of where it attaches to the motor head. I was planning on using heli-coil. Does anyone have any other recommendations?

Yes I have worked on those.----Not sure how you could strip that bolt and thread on the block.

 

[oswana21]

My apologies. The part I was talking about is the stud, throttle lever.

Helicoil works fine.

Helicoil works fine.

Thanks. I'm going to try to re tap it. If that doesn't work, then I'll need to bore the hole anyway. Thanks for reaching out!
