I am not sure of your question, Vince.<br /><br />Set your points at .020"<br /><br />Use Champion J4C spark plugs gapped at .030".<br /><br />If you need detailed instructions, you need a manual.<br /><br /> http://www.outboardrepairs.com/manuals/ <br /><br />Good luck. :)

Hallo.<br />Je pense que tu a besoin d'un manual.Je ne sais pas si c'est possible de trouver un en Francais mais le "Volume 1" SELOC en Anglais a becoup des illustrations et tous ce que tu doit faire pour un "tune up" on puis trouver dedans.Pardonne moi pour mon Francais,la derniere fois etait presque trente annees.Si tu as des questions specifiquement je veux responder probablement en anglais.<br />Bon chance.

Re: Johnson 35hp super seahorse '58 tune-up

Today, i have many simple questions for you guys!<br /><br />I try to start my engine(It already started, but...). My gaz pump (OK), ignition (OK) I would like to know some tricks for a good starting (adjustment...) Now, when I trying to start the engine, the gasoline accumulate a little in the air intake of the caburator...<br /><br />The 2 buttons of adjustment on the carburator used for what?(Low speed and high speed)?<br /><br />Thank you all! <br /><br />P.S.
