I bought a 6 hp 1966 Johnson outboard. I have an old 50s pressurized tank from my other motor that died. Chose to buy this motor and fix my other one later. Can I convert the double hose press tank to work w my single hose outboard? Thanks

Borrowed compression gauge today. Nothing registering!! I pull cord and can feel little air out of port. Funny because I looked at a running motor last night and similar air coming out of the port. Buy a head gasket I take it?

Ok thanks. I'm borrowing a compression gauge today. I'll post numbers w pic of ignition later today. I appreciate all the help.

Did some investigating with the cylinders. The bottom cylinder looks like there is grayish milky sludge in there. They move freely when pulling cord. Is this where head gasket is? I will post pic tomorrow of ignition plate. Very frustrated.

Ok I did overheat earlier last year. I sucked up some sand and a pebble was caught in the port. Ran fine for a few weekends then died like I said. Wondering if coils are bad now.

Fuel gets to the bowl I've confirmed that. Im hoping internal filter may be clogged. Thanks

1954 5.5 hp envinrude... Ran fine then died never started again. Wondering if carb could be issue? Clogged jet? Good spark and fuel delivery from tank. When it died it was full bore and wound down and stalled. Any thoughts??
