    Fuel type 2005 Johnson 115 hp 2cycle

    Thanks yeah don’t have an owners manual. I guess I was just curious if everyone uses a mid grade or higher fuel type and I meant 85 octane not ethanol just to be clear.

    2005 Johnson 115 hp 2 stroke dies easily at low idle

    I am not sure how to advance the idle and don’t have a timing light. But I think if I raised the idle just a tad it wouldnt always be dying while trying to maneuver slowly like when trying to to load onto trailer or floating slowly in toward a dock. Having to restart several times during slow...

    At My Wits End: Lower Unit Seals (Shiftshaft/Driveshaft) Replaced, But Still Seeing Leaking Fluid!

    You also could get seepage if the seal shaft had been nicked while getting the seals installed.

    Scuppers

    I have the type with the little ping pong ball in them they don’t seal off water worth a darn and allows the well to take water which in turn goes under a hatch to the bilge pump. Constant cycling water. I think it cannot be stock to have a hatch in a water well anyway but there it is bad seal...

    Motor tilt intermittent

    weird won’t always work and if it starts to act like it won’t lift hittin up/down lever quickly seems to make a difference. Will low Hydralic fluid in the pump cause that? Sometimes it will groan while lifting. Seems like it works 90% of the time. The ten percent is at the ramp or in low water...
