My motor met the water today.. motor idles fine.. under load it came up on plane reasonably well, for an old low-bottom-end-torgue type of motor....ran well for an hour at 15 to 34 mph.. on my 16ft boat.. shut it off for 10 minutes, restarted it, and it was acting kinda bogging, and jerking under load....then within another 20 minutes, it was sounding good, and semi perky like it was when I first started it....Please make reference to my earlier topic today..."Carb setting for 1969 Johnson 55hp 3 cyl", which I have had No replies.... I have replaced almost everything on this motor... all electrical components..including the amplifier..all rewired, stater, coils, etc.. I think its just a little carb fine tuning..but any help or suggestions are appreciated.. Thanks Ross Bancroft Ontario
