Re: johnson super sea horse

r u sure its 136? a starter weighs? like 10 pounds? cause i was looking at it and looks kinda ot be 126 so thats 2 pounds more then 124. i think that would be more reasonabe? u know lol

Re: johnson super sea horse

looking from the rear, tstat is just above the cylinder head, a little to the starboard.
this is a seahorse that has had the fuel pump added. the tstat would be under where they have the fuel pump mounted on this motor.

Re: johnson super sea horse

In addition to the starter motor you've got the ring gear, wiring harness, & choke solenoid. Also add in the battery, external wiring harness and solenoid box for another 60-80 lbs. or so depending on your battery.

Facing the front of the boat, port is on the left, starboard is on the right

Re: johnson super sea horse

CG,
I thought you were putting it on a pontoon boat? You probably would get 25 to 35 on a lightweight planing boat, but not on the pontoon. Maybe 1/2 that on the pontoon, all according whether it will get the pontoons up on top of the water. How long is your 'toon? Are you going to keep it on the boat it came on? What kind of aluminum boat is it???? If it's a feathercraft rocket I want it. Will give you $101 for it so you'll make a little profit. Will come and get it--tomorrow.

Re: johnson super sea horse

well some of my plans of getting have spoiled u could say. my sister found out and his bugging me blah blah and think what if it dont run. i told her i havent even really looked at it yet lol blah she doesnt understand.

well im still going to check it out just going to keep everything form the guy a secret

i have to get rid of some of my grandfathers old boats a fiber glass and some other old 10 foot fiber glass row boat. im going to keep the motor from the big boat though a 1961 mercury 50hp think about putting that on a toon

Re: johnson super sea horse

well im going to try and see if i can convince the guy to let me just buy the motor for like 50$ lol and see what happens. my sister wont complain about that then. here coems me going 12mph down the lake now lol i wish i could get my 50hp to work but i believe its so darn old that no parts for it like evinrude and johnson. if the 50 horse worked i can see me going 20mph down the lake

well since this motor hasnt ran in a while? how do i check compression? stuck rings maybe so false reading. i dont think i have a battery to use to use the electric start. and how do i check compression by just the manuel pull? dont u ahve to diable the compression lever but how?
