    Johnson Outboard Carb Help Wanted

    Well, I GOT HER RUNNING!!!! It was a pain in the shoulders to start it. Not to mention I am 16 years old and weigh 140 pounds.

    OK, I will. How do I do a compression test? It doesn't have electric start, and it has a compression release for pull starting. Thanks!
