I aquired a boat that has two motors both look the same but I can only find a model number on one of them. it is Johnson 25rl70e I am trying to find any online info about this motor. It may be too big for the boat?

It's a 1970 25 hp. Here's some info.<br /> I'de guess one of those motors is a (wrecked) parts motor. Pick the engine with better compression and you'll probably be on the right track.<br /><br /> More info.

Why not part them out and sell them on ebay. Make a few bucks to pay for a replacement.
