    '84 90hp crossflow. J90 MLCRD. Reed valve filler blocks. part # 0322684. When?

    How to tell it they are warped enough to replace? I'm installing new CCMS reeds with stuffers. These blocks are still soft and pliable. Some warping. I would need 4. There are two nos on eBay right now. That would leave me putting someone else's used filler blocks in. Suggestions? Thanks, Kevin

    '84 90 hp Johnson Crossflow. Water coming from engine front. Ain't lookin good.

    Unknown to me, in gear at idle, a cut down prop (13 1/2" to 9 1/4" in a barrel with a lid pushed more water out than a full blast hose in the barrel could keep up with. I was working on the dash. I heard a distinct "TICK!!". Loud enough to hear over motor noise. Quickly turned to see, no tell...

    J90 MLCRD-'84 XFlow. Upper water tube grommet part #.

    Neither marineengine.com nor brp parts show a grommet at the top of the tube. They both show a fitting at the bottom. Does anyone have a part # for the rubber fitting at the top of the tube where it goes into the inner exhaust housing mounting plate...

    J90 MLCRD '84 crossflow--cold water from front of powerhead.

    This is a fresh build, from the ground up. New everything. Full WSM rebuild kit @ .020" over. 2 hours in a drum at idle, all was well, then a steady dribble of cold water from the front of the powerhead where it meets the exhaust adapter. It did run hot once, Iong story there, I've since done...

    J90MLCRD '84 90hp crossflow. Complete overhaul. Need full advance timing #'s

    New everything. The WSM overhaul kit. Bored .020", pistons, bearings, water pump, carbs, the whole 9 yards. Carb kits were OE, not some kit from wonton, I finally got it finished. Fired for the first time today. 20 mins at 900 rpm. Looking to double check WOT timing advance. After 10 hr easy...

    J90MLCRD Port extension-Any value to this part?

    My '84 90hp was missing these when I got it. The one I do have came with some other parts I bought off eBay. Is it worth searching for the other one? I had a two stroke rocket as a kid. I put velocity stacks on the mikunis after jetting cuz that's what we did back then. Are these some kind of...

    J90MLCRD-'84 90hp Broken exhaust bolt boss

    The pic wil do a better job of describing what I'm up against. I cannot be the first to have had to deal with this. It is a second hand block that had good enough cylinder liners to bore, but has been into before and was put back together with box store grade 3 garbage 1/4 20 exhaust cover...

    1984 Johnson 90 crossflow J90MLCRD-No exhaust adapter to outer exhaust housing gasket?

    In the process of putting this one back together. I have the full rebuild kit from WSM. There is no gasket for the exhaust housing adapter (part # 0324059) to outer exhaust housing (part # 0435318). It's a long story as to why this had to come apart. No need to go there. On the BRP parts catalog...

    Old topic. I've searched. No model # on the disc.

    I'm familiar with INTRODUCES. Familiar with how to identify by model #. This block, and it's only a block, only has a string of numbers under the stamped circled M on the little silver disc. Looks like a freeze plug. Some call it a welch plug. C2832834. Not the familiar J88TSLEOC. Right now I'm...

    '84 90 hp V4 Unknown hole in mount bracket. Zerk or no? Should it even be there?

    I was cleaning things up when I found this hole from the inside of the bracket. I cleared the crud out of it and it then went clear thru to the outside. It connects outside atmosphere or water directly with the pivot shaft keeper, which sits in a race of its own. What was grease inside of this...

    No aluminum model # plug on this powerhead.. Old 2 cylinder. How to identify??

    I bought this plain powerhead years ago to repower a '73 18 hp fastwin. The man I bought it from was a fixture on this forum, but he passed some years ago. Tashasdaddy. We called him TD. I can't find any info anywhere on this block with any #'s. There is no plug with the familiar model # stamped...

    1984 J90 HP .060" over. Why not?

    If .040" doesn't clear the scoring on my block .060" over pistons are available. The walls would be thin. Ok... rings don't wear against anything but the sleeve walls anyway. Right now it looks a lot better than buying some one else's used block which will then have to be bored as well. It's a...

    1984 J90MLCRD='84 90 HP Johnson- No sleeves??

    The engine I am working on is badly scored on the starboard bottom. The sleeve that keeps coming up anywhere on the net is by LA Sleeve. Flea bay, WSM, Wiseco, whatever. They claim it's for a 65-235 JE Crossflow. But the sleeve they all show by LA Sleeve is solid, no porting at all. How can a...

    J60TLCEA --WSM brand drive shaft.

    I need a driveshaft for my Johnson 60. BRP part # 0432960. They are pretty hard to come by. I've found three, two on ebay, one used one from CNautique in France. The least expensive new one from a US seller is made by WSM. I know they have an aftermarket presence for us Johnson-Evinrude guys...

    J90 MLCRD Crossflow V-4- Best place to mount aftermarket temp sending units? Is it necessary to remove very stuck old sending units?

    Still working out old motor issues before I put it on the water. I wanted to test the temp sending units as described in the J/E manual. What got my attention was the buzzer alarm in the remote control was fried when I went through and serviced it. The OE sending units are done. Finished. Each...

    1984 90 hp J90 MLCRD What are these tiny brass nipples for? The one on the block seems plugged.

    1984 90 hp J90 MLCRD What are these tiny brass nipples for? The one on the block seems plugged. I'm redoing all of the fuel and primer lines. In the process I noticed that this little group of lines was cracked and split at the nipple fittings. I have a good bit of OE primer hose (a small roll...

    Can't find an OE manual for 1984 90 hp v4. J 90 TLCRD. Will an '85 manual work?

    I really don't like Clymer or Seloc manuals. My trusty OE service manual for my '89 60hp has gotten me through some serious issues. Like a salt water submersion followed by a total overhaul. The listing shows a book with an '84 print date, but the INTRODUCES code proves the book is for an '85...

    1984 E90 MLCRD Back from the grave. Compression a little low on lower right.

    New to me. I've completely rebuilt my '89 J60 TLCEA after a sinking in salt water. It runs very strong. This post isn't about that, but I do know my way around older JE 2 strokers. This '84 90 hp sat up for 12 years. Not even in a shed or barn. Just out there beside his barn. I bought it on the...

    How much water is too much? Bottom of foam still wet after months of airing with fan.

    It's a model 1970 Southern Skimmer. Year unknown. Paperwork is put away. I redecked the middle of the boat, from 2' forward of the transom to the front edge of the CC. The foam in that are was dry to the hull. Problem is the bilge box was in a lot worse shape than I first thought. Split glass...
