J225VXSIF need a shop manual-

[elhombre]

I recently aquired this 2001 225hp carburetted Johnson. I'd like to find an(OMC) shop manual for it. Evidently Johnson was in bankruptcy for 7 mos that year and it's unclear to me wether or not Johnson or OMC published a manual for the J225VXSIF. I'd really prefer a manufacturers (rather than aftermarket) shop manual. Suggestions appreciated, Thanks...

The engines (Johnson and Evinrude) V6 carbed models (200, 225, 250) are so so very similar from 1996 thru 2001 that if you cannot find your 2001 model manual, a manual from the years mentioned will work. There will only be small differences, like connector styles, etc.
The meat of the manual, and the concepts discussed and explained will be the same.

What daselbee said. I doubt there will be many, if any, differences.

This is for a 2000 I would think this one will work for your outboard
