    6 Gal Gas Fuel Tank Gauge

    I've picked up a really clean 6gal fuel tank, but the fuel gauge is unreadable and useless. I've spent several hours trying the locate a replacement (fuel pick up, gauge and connector) but all I've found is new style without vent pin. The tank has 11/92 date on it. Any ideas where I can locate...

    '95 70hp question

    I work part time at the town transfer station and a older 70hp Evinrude ('75-'92 ?)came in (didn't get model #) for disposal. Since I have a 70hp tiller (J70TTLEOR) I took the thrust bushing (318841) and 14x13 prop (391668) along with castle nut and spacer. My 70 thrust bushing is (127084)...

    Question on motor ID

    If the model and SN on tag is illegible, is it safe to say the model # and SN on welsh plug is sufficient? I've been creating an inventory sheet on my motors etc, and the ID tag on my 15hp Johnson is more of a decal instead if stamped tag. The decal is unreadable now. The welsh plug has J15RCDE...

    Question on water pumps

    Is there a rule of thumb about how old the water pump is in your motor, that it would be time to replace it even with very little usage ? I'm referring to the known number of years since you've replaced or had it replaced. I'm not talking about a motor that service is not known to you. Just...

    Spark plug

    I've been using Champion QL77JC4 plugs in my 4.5,15 and 70hp Johnson's forever it seems. While looking for the correct gap, my friend looked it up on his cell and said the reccomended plugs have been changed to QL86C Champions for those engines. What's up with that??

    A friend gave me two gallons of this oil and I've never used this brand. I normally stay with Evinrude oil. Has anyone here used it? Opinions? Thanks

    93 Merc 60hp

    Hi guys, my friend is looking to purchase a boat with this engine on it. My question is what would be good compression numbers for it. They will do the test but he has no idea if the numbers they get are within tolerance. Thanks for the help

    Question on 4hp Evinrude

    My friend dropped his motor off 4906B E06097 to store in my heated garage for the winter. He had not done any winterizing on it so I told him I would for him. He said it was a good running little motor so I just did the basic stuff on it, plugs, storage seal in cyl, LU grease. When I pulled...

    Johnson, OMC steel gas tank

    I know this is a stretch, but at one time there used to be a soft plastic/rubber molding that fit the bottom edge of these tanks. I've been poking around on the net to see if they're still available, but I don't even know what it was called. Does anyone remember what I'm talking about and can...

    3 gal Johnson gas tank

    I just picked up one of these that is really clean inside. This one has a plastic vent that screws into the tank instead of through the filler cap. I've never had one like this, and was just wondering if the vent ever goes bad and needs replacement or don't worry about it. I did remove it to...

    1982 Johnson 4.5

    I was looking at the breakdown of the lower unit when I discovered something that has me perplexed. When changing/replacing the prop it lists prop hub, cotter pin, drive pin and thrust washer!! I purchased my motor used a bunch of years ago and have had the prop off several times over the...

    Exaust question

    I have an 84 Johnson 4.5hp (white) that I use for trolling on our 18' Lund. After our last trip I noticed that the area below the back pressure exhaust, was a lot of very black oily residue. I understand there should be some but the amount surprised me. Wipes off easy enough, just looks bad on a...

    Steel gas tank maintainence

    I have several of the Johnson/OMC 6 gal tanks and today got to wondering just what other guys do to keep them from deteriorating inside. Myself, if I'm not going to use one or more for an extended period of time (a year in some cases) I'll completely drain & dry the tank and put a little WD40 in...

    OMC fuel connector

    My buddy has a irritating problem with his fuel connector. When he plugs it into the tank it will sometimes bleed gas out of one of the two pins that get compressed when you lock it on the tank. As you look at the male connector on tank, it's the right one next to the fuel supply connector...

    Sears 14 hp

    A friend of mine was gifted a Sears 14 the other day. No gas tank with it. The original owner said it was purchased early to mid 60's..... maybe. Really nice old guy. If he's remembering the years correctly, was it made by McCullough ? Will the older Merc bayonet fuel connector work on it...

    Whats your opinion?

    One of the local stores have Pennzoil TCW3 full synthetic and synthetic blend for a decent price. I've always used Johnson/Evinrude oil, and was wondering what the opinion is from users on the Pennzoil.
