    Troubleshooting 1999 Johnson 225 HO

    Again, solid beep is overheat and I do believe any alarm sets limp mode. Somewhat spit balling here. There is a low warning in the oil tank and thought maybe....but the tank is gone so someone must have dealt with those wires. You can test your pressure gauge pretty easily by removing the tube...

    1993 4HP Johnson

    Looks like you have a fine looking outboard. Next time, and let's hope you never need to, two screws removes the fuel pump giving you plenty of clearance. Enjoy.

    Getting shocked in forward and reverse.

    Probably something inside the box. I know a few captains that could use that function!

    What is this hole

    Do those have a tell tale? Backfiring to me, is to much fuel or improper timing. Make sure spark plugs are not fouled and lean it out some. Either way you will need to play with the idle screw to correct it or rule it out. Lean sneeze makes a different noise and the motor shakes side to side...

    Evinrude 35hp +/-1980 missfire at higher rpm (lower cylinder)?

    18 ft pounds on the head bolts starting in the middle and working outward in a x pattern. I don't use anything on the head gasket but perhaps others do. After you flatten the head out make sure to clean it very well. No fine metal shavings can go into the motor.

    Evinrude 35hp +/-1980 missfire at higher rpm (lower cylinder)?

    Yes, new gaskets for sure. But you need to make your head flat again. Sand paper on a piece of glass or counter top piece. Has to be dead flat. Take your head and do figure eight motions on it. I use 220 wet but people seem to use all kinds of grits.

    Evinrude 9.5 how long until thermostat opens

    High if it's salt water use and not flushed regularly. Pull off the head and water jacket and clean. Try the t-stat first maybe you will get lucky. Also, your motor might not even be running hot because your guessing. You'll get there.

    Power Head Swap? J70PLSSD to J70TLECB

    The T in the model number represent tiller. The make a tool that you put oil in and tap with a hammer but I haven't had any luck with them. If it hasn't been greased, and there is metal shavings in there than it will be tough. You will have to pull it apart.

    Evinrude 35hp +/-1980 missfire at higher rpm (lower cylinder)?

    You said you saw exhaust out the water hole (TT) Exhaust should not come out there. Also, head does not look good to me. Pictures are before you cleaned the up I take it. You need to clean, inspect/flatten and reinstall a new gasket. Do you know how to resurface a head?

    Power Head Swap? J70PLSSD to J70TLECB

    Isn't one a tiller and the other is not? Anyhow, might be easier to fix the steering. Is it all salted up?
