    Leaking Fuel From Air Intake Gasket

    Yeah that’s what I try to do just thought maybe there was something I was missing in the design or the way it was assembled or a better gasket. Thx

    Leaking Fuel From Air Intake Gasket

    Typically I see fuel leaking from the gasket seal (#10) when I have he engine tilted up. Not a lot but some. I think the intake cover and gasket is supposed to collect any excess fuel item (41 and 28 along with gasket). Any tips on making this a better seal? A couple of the bottom screws are...

    9.9 1974 Johnson Heavy Black On Plug

    Went out and got the plugs B7HS and what do you know. The beast fires up on second pull. Pump seems to be working fine and the motor seems to be running ok in the barrel. I had the idle at 11/2 turns out but ending up adjusting this to 11/8 turns out. Seems to idle ok and ran in gear it at 1/3...

    9.9 1974 Johnson Heavy Black On Plug

    So the check valves on this block should be activated by my breath much like the final assembled test? Based on my pump fuel will come into the chamber in green and through the valve and then return through metal side(red) and out to carb? There is a passageway connecting to chamber on right...

    We will be at 150 soon enough. What does that middle section do besides act as a pocket for the bottom spring?

    Yeah I saw that. Both sides have the metal part 180 degrees apart so his won’t help me.

    9.9 1974 Johnson Heavy Black On Plug

    Could not get this pump assembly to pass the blow test. Tried a ton of times and went over all instructions and some videos to problem solve what I could be doing wrong. I could not find anything. I think part # 329974 could be defective. Any way to test this component? I may end up buying the...

    9.9 1974 Johnson Heavy Black On Plug

    Here the exact way I had assembled it. Small spring was on the right hand side of block. The base has no parts that can fail? Air freely blows through.
