I want to install a temperature gauge on my 1996 Johnson 150. To be safe I would like to monitor both heads. Is there a way to install two senders on one gauge? How do I monitor both sides? Thanks
I am pretty sure the power pack on my J150sledb 1996 is going bad. The engine randomly cuts off after its warm. It starts right back up and runs normal. I have checked the safety cutoff and the ignition switch but that does not see to make any difference. I have had it run a full day with no...
A couple questions for the johnny guru team.
The last time out my ocean runner 150 seemed to have a good miss to it. Ran with pretty good power and never stalled at idle but was missing at both high and low speeds. I started with spark plugs and they are a few seasons old they are QL77JC4...
I have a good running 1996 outboard. I have used it now 3 seasons and bought the motor used that had been sitting for a while. It starts and runs good. Idles maybe a little rough not bad and never stalls at idle.
My question is I have no idea when the Carbs were rebuilt. I don't know if...
:D Ok hopefully that got someoene to chuckle.
Here is my issue. The other day when pulling out from the dock in reverse the gears where clunking like crazy in reverse. It has slowly been getting a little worse but never too bad it always goes in reverse. Forward has always been very smooth...
Yesterday I brought home a 1980 Bucaneer sailboat to restore. It is going to need a ton of fiberglass work. The deck was distroyed when the mast came down. I will post some pictures as things go along. I am not sure if I will need to seperate the top and bottom.
Ok I posted this before and I didnt get a solution that worked. I have a check system Tach for my Johnson 150 and everything works as it should except. When the Key is on the own position I have a strange noise that my wife says sounds like a wounded duck under the dash which comes from the...
I have the check engine system in the tach. I had to add a loud buzzer to the system for the alarm. Now I notice that the buzzer has a low noise comming from it at times when I have the Key on. The alarm works if there is a problem it just seems to leak some voltage thru to make the alarm...
I decided to replace the spark plugs in my J150sledb. The book calls for Champion plugs QL77JC4 which is what I bought without looking at what was in the motor. I bought the motor used and it has been running great. Idles great and has great punch. When I removed the spark plugs I noticed...
I am so confused at to which way to go on a new combo unit. These three are all in my price range. Some are on sale. Can anyone comment on what they think is better and why?
Thanks
First one.

I have had this little sail boat for about 5 years now and I love how she handles 25 MPH wind in a 17 foot boat. She has a jiffy reef and wide beam. Very stable. Sunday we were out in 25 plus winds in the chesapeke bay with 3 foot seas. What a blast!!! We were keeping up with my buddy who...
Outdrive will not raise up and down unless the motor is running. I am not sure why it wont raise up and down with just the key on. Is that normal and if not any ideas as to why the motor has to be running to raise the lower unit?
Thanks
Ok my 1996 Johhny gets a check engine alarm at full throttle after about 3 min of running. I know this is triggered by a vaccum switch on the fuel line so it is pulling into a neg at full throttle.
Could this be because I put a OMC male / female plug on the fuel system inlet right at the...
Any reason I cant use one of these and shoot it thru the hull? I found a cheap one on ebay and it fits my wide eye but its a trolling mount transducer. I want to mount it in the bottom of the boat instead of a transom mount.
I just did an alarm check and when I grounded the port temp sensor I get light but no alarm sound? My guess is the buzzer is dead since i get a light. where the heck is the buzzer in the controller? How do I test it to see if its working. I installed a new tach with the check engine lights...
