    Clutch dog question

    Got a 1972 25HP Johnson. Jumps out of gear. What are the ears on the clutch dog supposed to look like? Mine are rounded at all 4 outer corners of the ears. Looks as tho they were machined. I did find new for just over $100.00, but don't want to spend it if the problem is somewhere else. Thanks

    broken mount

    I've got a 1971 25HP Johnson that I'm going to rebuild the power head. It also has a broken upper mount on the exhaust leg. Is it worth the trouble to replace it or is it best left alone. <br /><br />If it's best to replace, how do I go about it. The Sealoc manual has nothing (that I can find)...

    25 HP Johnson

    1972 Vintage, whatr is the best prop to use on a 14 ft Grumman deep fisherman. Picked up a used motor (no LU) Used LU from my 18 hp Fast twin donor motor, but don't think that the prop would be best on the 25.<br />Thanks

    My technicolor 18 HP fast twin (made from 3 engined) has a problem with the tioller throttle. When magneto plate is screwed tightly to the ring under the brass collar on the block, it is almost impossible to throttle up, when screws are loose, works almost as freely as it should. The parts...
