Thanks all for the kind words. It is a carb engine, and as I said I have had them all, currently have a Tohatsu, Honda, Suzuki and this Johnson. I have had outboards from 2 HP to a Mercury 280HP on an Allison 21XTB. After 40+ boats you have good ones and bad ones. PICs on the way. I should also mention that the only reason I am selling is to get a bigger boat 19 /200 or 225HP. I will also say this BassCat site is amazing, from having to find out things in the past about R and T boats this site is the source of truth.
