[papamike]

I have a Johnson 50 hp engine Iserial # 67043284 I have to use starting fluid to start it. The marina told me the choke solenoid was leaking when I push in the key. how hard is it to change it and what is the approximate cost of the part? thanks for any and all advise

It's very easy to work on. Repair kits are like 12 bucks. Just make sure the plunger is in correctly. I fought with one for a while one time before I figured out I had put the plunger in backwards.

The approach is to take it apart to see what you need.------Might just need the o-ring.--------???--------E-bay will not offer much technical help , but your local dealer can.
