    Help with 1982 Johnson 15 HP - water in bottom cylinder

    I tightened up the head bolts as best as I could with no positive results. I guess it's time for the Head to come off again . . . . CMOS

    I'll see what I can do with those bolts without removing the Power Head (which I do no know how to do...). CMOS

    Help with 1982 Johnson 15 HP - water in bottom cylinder

    Quite possibly. Let me explain: when I pulled the Head to replace the T-stat (it was easier than removing the entire Power Head) the Power Head was still in the lower cowling. As such, when it came time to tighten the Head bolts I had poor access to the bottom 2 bolts, thus, I may not have...

    Help with 1982 Johnson 15 HP - water in bottom cylinder

    Help with 1982 Johnson 15 HP - water in bottom cylinder

    Update 7-2-17: I had some time to fiddle this weekend and what I found doesn't sound good: I replaced the fuel pump and found no difference in the symtoms: starts and runs fine then idle gets low and very rough, then dies. I pulled the plugs right after the symptoms showed. Top is fine...

    Johnny, Yep, I'm really only concerned with the steel trailer. The tinner and the motor can easily be well rinsed. Those Reds and Specs are callin me man . . . . CMOS :mrgreen:

    My 14' tinner never been in sal water - shoud I?

    This post may seem a bit silly to some, and well, maybe it is. :mrgreen: I did a full restore on my 1963 14' Lone Star boat, and added a 9.5 HP 1966 Johnson motor. Solid rig and she runs like a scalded dog. I use it thus far, at a local fresh water lake. Here's my dilemma - I've recently...

    Between Ebay and other OEM parts sources you should have no problem getting her running again. CMOS
