I had some repairs done on a Johnson 225 (1990) and the shop welded some ports closed. (see picture) Question - what do these holes do and is this problem? Motor seems much louder now!

Re: Johnson 225 question

In the water or on the hose ?,
they sound like dirt bikes on a hose, woke the neighbors with mine.

Not sure about those holes, I'd get the manual and see.
MAybe they had to drill holes to get easy access to the lower bolts but you didn't say what work was done.
If thats so, they saved you the labor expense of having to pull the head. Its actually recommended by the pro techs here.
