yahoo!!! that old johnson 9.5 ive been tinkering with fired up today at first attempt. may sound corny but after all the crap ive been through trying to get my main engine in the boat up to par it was really encouraging that the kicker fired up . last week i had a broken killswitch , no spark and no gas tank. after some help from the good people of this forum i was able to get some spark happening . today i bought a gas tank & hose , mixed gas , filled up the barrel ,and it sputtered on the first pull . after a few more tugs it fired right up. it runs a little rough, so i think ill follow a couple of previous posts and clean the carb real good and adjust it . it tended to want to die when shifting gears but did not . i was able to keep it going by givin a little gas and it would idle again for a few minutes then repeat. impeller works too but gonna replace it anyway. thanks to all that helped me , i couldnt have done it without you ....dimitri
