Has anyone here ever made a throttle and shifter control for the old Johnson. It has the connections on both sides for the cable hook-up but the ship master controls are a bit pricey and the cables are to. Here in Tennessee we call it redneck engineering. Any thoughts from all you old salts...

your recoil claws aren't engaging. You need to rebuild the starter mechanism. Very simple, one or two of the engaging claws aren't making contact with the flywheel. these claws are the anchor point that turns the flywheel to excite the magneto to make the spark to send it to the coil and then to...

seem like the difference so far is the is the mounting of the cowl cover and he throttle. Haven't checked the isolators yet. AS far as the power heads, ,looks like power heads are similar. the attachment cowl ears are different. Think i got some stuck stuck rings on the QD-13. Have the QD-16...

Do you have any pros an con for a 1957 rude fastwin. Is this a motor that parts can be had easily. Is it a good motor or am i wasting my time.

Thanks for the clarification on the housing pappy. It is worn, but still works for now. Ordered a new one. I cant see any cracks in the HS nozzle and i have an extra jet. I have been having a little trouble finding the proper gasket material for the smaller ones. I have been cutting them out...
