Johnson TD20 Rebuild Project

[RANELS]

Hey all! I'm new to this forum but it looked like a good one to go to with lots of feed back.

What I have is a Johnson Seahorse TD-20. It was given to my by my dad. All I really know is that it's a 5hp and was built somewhere between 1946-1949.
I've seen a couple different threads on here about them, and I know people have been able to hook up PDF copies of the Parts list and Owners Manual. If anyone would be able to pass on a copy of these, it would be more than appreciated!
Ill have some photos posted up of the build and keep everyone updated. Any use full information is more that welcome.

Post the serial number if you want to narrow it down to the year.

Re: Johnson TD20 Rebuild Project

Thanks guys! The one thing that will really help is the parts manual though.. I know it's like a good $50 if i go through KenCook. I PM a couple people that have said the have PDF copy in previous threads but they were in 2008. So if anyone has access to the manual or PDF copies that would be incredibly helpful!

Re: Johnson TD20 Rebuild Project

Just a little update, picked up two more TD20s from a guy on craigslist http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/ram/boa/3045027685.html
Planning on getting one completely updated/restored and with whatever I have left get a second one running for a duckboat motor.

Does anyone know were to get some original paint? I believe this is original

One of the ones i picked up is supposedly in running condition. I'll get pictures up this weekend of the three motors before i start digging in to them.
