    1978 Johnson 150 hp tach wire

    There should be a round runner cap below the key switch. If you pull on it you will see another rubber fitting with 3 wires connection. That's your tach tie in.

    Evinrude 60 HP (3 Cylinder) Won't Suck Fuel

    Well you should post the model number then we know what motor we are dealing with. Have you done any checking of the mechanics of the motor like compression check? Just to cover the dumb stuff, primer bulb is pointed the right way, correct? Are you buying good OMC/brp parts?

    Identify Motor

    Well their close if not right. I have a 1978 35 HP and that's all close. The carb throats are a lot smaller on the 25 so that might help but unnecessary really. The I'd tag on the carb could probably confirm horsepower. You can match it up with a parts company. Everything else tells me it's of...

    Engine tune-up spray

    No, can't hurt. All the products I used to use, and yes I have a bunch of crap sitting on my shelf, usually did a good job. Carbon cleaner, fogging oil, electrical contact wax....yada yada yada. All works but as I age I use it more now when I need to not just for the hell of it. Seafoam in...

    CDI Electronics and AGM Battery Compatibility

    CDI Electronics and AGM Battery Compatibility

    Don't believe your motor is undervolting at slow RPMs? Get your meter out and test

    CDI Electronics and AGM Battery Compatibility

    Well ...and I'm taking an educated guess here, because at low speed your not getting 14.1 volts.

    2001 70HP Johnson 2 Stroke.

    Temp sensor is unavailable, at least new that is. This problem sure happens a lot with what seems to be no resolution. Pulse limiter and thermo/Poppet were discussed. Have you checked those? What years had the diode issue in the harness?

    Engine tune-up spray

    I've used it.....I think it works but not if your engine isn't carboned up. Are you having problems with your motor?

    2001 70HP Johnson 2 Stroke.

    I thought I read once that you need to ground the tan wire that went to the vro harness. Might try that, otherwise go with the earlier made power pack

    70HP Johnson 3 Cylinder 2 Stroke Bogs Down

    I agree, when motor was running faster it was not full bore. Was the throttle handle all the way up?

    70HP Johnson 3 Cylinder 2 Stroke Bogs Down

    If the alarms test ok I'm thinking the diode in the harness went bad. Others will come that will know more but limp mode seems to be coming on. The oil tank has to match the tach so other issues can happen. Post model number.

    Throttle Linkage? (1966 33hp Johnson Super Sea Horse outboard)

    Oh sorry, your cable should have a ring at the end. Hard to tell with the picture...Hey just figured out pictures must be working again! Looks like your cable is junk....should look like this.
