Johnson 70hp 1994

[beach]

I need to know what an approx rebuild will cost me to do myself on the motor vs having a shop do it. I have rebuilt automobile motors but never a boat. The lower end is said to be in good condition. The Model is J70TLEOR. I also need to find a cowl for it.

Ahoy, Beach.<br /><br />Though your engine may have been built in '94, the model number says it is a '95.<br /><br />Cost will depend on what parts must be replaced; whether you rebore and put in new pistons, for example.<br /><br />For a typical rebuild, figure at least $1,000 for labor. That is about what you would save by doing it yourself.<br /><br />Good luck.
