Hello thanks for your reply. I had considered this route but the red plug control box I have I actually use with another motor so I hate to take it apart. Rather I am looking for a way to put a compatible Red plug on this motor. Any ideas for that?
Thanks again DF
I needs some help finding a part. I have an old Johnson 25hp electric start that I acquired some time ago as part of a package deal with another motor. I have never run it as it did not come with the black plug Boat side wiring harness. The motor itself looks to be in good shape and it turns...
I have a question regarding a 1991 8hp Johnson outboard J8REIA and removing/installing the shift rod before and after replacing the gear case cover. It seems to me that the only way to replace the shift rod bushing is to remove the shift rod from the gear case. The top of the shift rod is flat...
I needs some help deciding what to try next to fix my problem. Here is the complete story. I am sorry about the length:
I have a 1992 Mercury Mariner 60hp that I am having power and ignition issues with. The problem only seems to exist when I have been running the motor for a long period of...
Perhaps some of you have had this issue and can help me:

I could use some advice. I have a 1993 20hp Johnson Electric (J20ELET) and I hate to admit it but in a rush to complete some work on it I hooked the battery up backwards but only for a few seconds. Yes I know what an idiot. Well now my issue is to try and figure out what damage I have done...
I just acquired a 1968 6hp Evinrude OB (model # 6802C). It seems to run like a Top but I am just looking for some information on it specifically about the cooling system. I have run it in a tank of water and it runs and idles just fine. However it does not seem to have a cooling water...
Could anyone tell me how big of a job it would be to replace the upper housing on a Honda BF8A 4 stroke? This would be the part that the cowling sits on and the power head bolts to. It was damaged in a trailering accident. I found a person who has the same part off of the same model Honda...
I have come into possession of an old Clinton outboard type K7516106-A does anyone know anything about these. Seems to run good but I removed the lower housing for inspection and I am not quite sure how to re-install it. Do I have to remove the power head to do so? Any help or links would be...
I cant figure out what to do next. I recently purchased a 85 30hp Johnson Outboard. It ran great the first few times I used it. However I notice it was not discharging water out of the water pump (pee hole) so I had the impeller replaced by a professional shop. After I got the motor back and...
