I need a recirculation hose diagram for the 1980, 140hp Johnson. Please Help!

I just always plumb em #1 carb to #1 inspection cover. #2 to #2, etc. If'n ya don't have fittings on all 4 inspection covers then there are some tees involved.

Best diagram I got is from Seloc and it ain't worth a chit. Won't even bother scanning/posting it. Shows the hoses cris-crossing in such a way you cain't tell which one's pointin where.

I thought you always crossed them on a side but I may be wrong. That's on an older v-4.

Been doin a lil research and that appears to be true. Gonna swap mine and see what happens. My guess is not much. But ya never know?

Post back what you find.

Will do. Waitin on some Tygon. Way I got it plumbed now I can't simply swap hoses. On either end. Gotta pull the carbs to tie the recirc hoses onto the intake. Oh joy ...
