i just recently bought 2 johnson 3hp outboards at an auction. one model JW-13, one JW-14, both are cream and burgandy in color. the are in decent shape. i had to clean the carbs on both to get them running, but they both run good. they are old, and any info on them would be very much appreciated. how much would they be worth?

Re: old Johnson 3hp

Howdy, Tatercats.<br /><br />JW-13 is a 1957, and the JW-14 is a 1958. Both great little engines.<br /><br />Fuel mix should be 24:1<br />Set points at .020<br />Champion J4C plugs gapped at .030<br /><br />Parts are available or can be ordered at NAPA stores as well as JohnnyRude dealers.<br /><br />Get a Repair Manual here: http://www.outboardrepairs.com/manuals/ <br /><br />Good luck. :)
