The motor is a 1999 Johnson 50hp 2st model J50pleea. I was draining and filling the lower unit when I noticed something shiny along with my shift rod. Upon closer inspection I found that it is some sort of machine screw and a zip tie. The machine screw is laying loose in the void/space that the...
I hope this is the right place to ask this. I have a 1999 Johnson 50hp 2str..J50PLEEA. I am having a hard time getting the primer bulb to pull fuel through the fuel/water seperator. I have attached a new filter and it has done nothing. I disconnected the filter and straight lined it and it works...
My aerator just died. It gets juice, because the whole thing gets hot, but does not spin or take in water. It is an Attwood 500gph #4108 which is no longer made. I read other posts so I will not ask about the intake diameter stuff, I know they are difference sizes now.
Is there a chance that...

It is a 4 pin set up. The brake lights, and turn signals work fine. However...
I have a 1999 Johnson 50hp 2cyl 2stroke (J50pleea) pushing a 1999 Palm Beach White Cap 161. My prop is chewed up and I am in need of a new one. I am looking for an aluminum to replace it. I know there are all kinds of pitch for all kinds of use. I do not pull skis or tubes. I fish and pleasure...

I need to fix my manual release valve. I have a 1999 Johnson 50hp 2stroke. I replaced the seals in the ram and stopped fluid leaking out of the top. To do so I had to use the manual release valve and I believe it is messed up now. The engine slowly leaks down while standing and watching it...
Took the boat out for a few hours today. Ran great. Its a 1999 Johnson 50hp. First thing I noticed that was strange though is that when trimmed up at one of the islands, the motor slowly returned all the way down into the water. It is doing this now so I figure more hydraulic fluid needed in the...
Ok, so with the wife in school and two young kids it has taken me months and months to save money for a trolling motor. I need a sw trolling motor for inshore fishing. I found these Watersnake brand motors that look like the regular mg or mk trolling motors. They are much less expensive.
Do...
I just replaced my flywheel after a magnet broke. My mechanic said it ran great after the new (used) flywheel was installed. I took it out about a week later to clean the boat, and run the engine.
When I tried to start the engine it would not. Then after about 3 minutes of this a strange...
I have a 1999 Johnson 50 - J50pleea. After about 10 minutes of driving regular the engine goes into SLOW mode I think. I replaced the fuel water filter.
I have noticed that when I pump the primer bulb there is a slurping sound and it never realy gets hard. After getting the engine started and...
Question. I have a 99 Johnson 50 and want to know how much smoke should be visible in the exhaust when running the motor out of the water with the hose muffs on. It started right up and has a good stream of water. The smoke goes down sone after a few minutes. I'm a new boat owner so I'm curious...
Hello,
I have a top mounted throttle for my outboard. Unknown manufacturer. It has the key/safety clib, tilt/trim button and then a small square rubber pad button. Probably 1"x1/2". It is not labeled but it is a button. It is located on top of the throttle housing next to the actual throttle...
I just bought this boat. The motor is a 1999 Johnson 50 2stroke with electric start tilt and trim. The motor ran great for about 30 min and then started to act up.
The motor would only engage or throttle up just above idle. Any more would produce a lot of hard shaking and no movement. Also I...
