Hello all,
I recently purchased a newer boat with a 2001 Johnson 90hp motor. The model number is j90plsi. I was looking at parts on this site and not sure if this is a loop or a cross or neither? They don't make it easy to order parts too many options. Also when I start the motor and push in the key to choke the motor shouldn't I hear the choke click or does this model have a different style of choke every boat I've been on before you can hear the choke click. Sorry new boat owner any help would be appreciated.

Motor is loop charged.-----Take the cover off and listen for the primer to click.

When you're starting it hold the key in until it fires. A lot of misinformation out there about starting especially when cold.

You may look up parts by the model number on the crowleymarine web site

Make sure you turn key to "on" position then push in and you should hear a click . If you push key in and then turn to on and then to start you won't get a click .
