" I have a 1972 Johnson 100 hp
" I have a 1972 Johnson 100 hp outboard. The motor trails out for a split second and then slams the transom. This has been going on for four to five years. I happens very quickly and I can't tell if it is the motor momentarily stoppin and starting again or if the clutch dog is slipping. It happens at any speed, sometimes two or three times in a row and then not again for a whole day. It seems like if it was a clutch dog it would do it constantly. Sometimes it happens when we are pulling a ski-er and sometimes at idle. Obviously the violence of the slam down onto the transom depends on the speed we are going. I have ruled out water in the gas, the shifting solenoids, bypassed the ignition, switched props, checke all the grounds. But there is something I am missing. What is it?
