Hello all:

I am replacing the powerhead on my 73 Johnson 9.5. I have got a replacement cylinder block and head off E-bay that appears to be slightly older than my 73. I was wondering if anyone can give me an idea of the year of it. The frost plug on the block is shows J2888240 and on the intake side it has black "oil line hose"(what it is refered to on some of the online scematics). From what I gather, the hose wasn't on the later 9.5's, but the powerhead should still fit.

Can anyone tell me if the intake reeds from the 73 will fit on the replacement block with the oil line hose and also, where does the oil line hose go?

I am waiting to order a manual until I can figure out the year.

Thanks
