Re: 1989 johnson 150 gt help
'afternoon jrc27,<br /><br />wow, lots of questions.<br />yup, carbs can cause lots of problems,... as can carbon build up.<br /><br />do a search on this forum for "decarb". there is already a wealth of info on the subject.<br /><br />run a compression test before and after a decarb treatment. results will let you know if you've got a "sound" motor to work with.<br /><br />if the results are ok, then remove and service carborators. STRONGY suggest you get a service manual if you don't already have one. aftermarket manuals are available at the link at the lower left corner of this page.<br />confirm the integrity of the entire fuel delivery system (Tank, bulb, gas lines, fuel pump and your rebuit carb)<br /><br />after the above, if there's still a problem, then its time to move on to the electricals.<br /><br />we'll wory about that onece you get there.<br /><br />let us know what you find. lots of folks here who are willing to help.<br /><br />sorry that i'm not familiar with your motor specifics HOWEVER, a manual will have info on recomended and alternate plugs.<br /><br />Good Luck<br />HAVE FUN!
