I got the broken bolt extractor out and removed the bolt remains. Only four more to go. The only easy outs I had were cheap Chinese, am waiting on some hanson (USA) extractors. In the mean time have...
I found the ring gear already loose when I removed the timing cover. Would have used a puller if needed but flywheel just lifted out due to five broken bolts. Looks like it would be hard to knock the...
Has anyone dealt with the gear on the flywheel coming off? Am I right in thinking to warm it to reinstall?
Yes, engine turns freely, pulled the plugs to check. It didn't seem to at first but it was the flywheel not really on and rubbing. Unfortunately I've hit a bit of a snag, broke a easy out off in hole...
I didn't catch any fish today and then this happened... 2000 johnson 90 running perfect up until it didn't. Made a noise, (not a good one) and then wouldn't start. The only good thing today was...
So the general opinion is that going through the carbs will solve this problem? Does it sound like the float seat and needle are not closing correctly?
Replaced the cracked fuel bracket, reassembled and pumped the primer bulb to check for leaks. No leaks from the bracket reservoir but I am getting fuel from both carb throats on the port side. (none...
The crack is visible and runs perpendicular to the cover. (not so visible in the picture), what is visible is the seam between the reservoir and cover. In your opinion do you think a new gasket will...
I'm finding that I have a crack in the reservoir tank part of the fuel component bracket on my 2000 90 Johnson, (leaking fuel, loosing prime). My seloc book shows replacement of the bracket and it...
I have a Javelin 17 venom with a step in the hull. Looking for transducer location ideas for a Garmin. I was thinking of mounting on a small block of king starboard bedded in 5200 to put it at just...

I need to install a new steering cable, look like the only way is to lift the engine just enough to get the correct angle. Johnson 90. I have a chain hoist but not sure where to hook to. I don't see...
Some great advice. The boat is a 2000 Javelin. The rest of the boat is dirty but not like the aft area. Relatively low hours on engine. Did a compression test, all seems ok. Last owner lived on a...
Javelin 17. Getting it to the engine is the easy part, it the last damn 12 inches...
Anybody got any tips for installing a new cable without removing the engine?
Last owner let this aft compartment get a little funky. I'm thinking of removing everything and detailing the area and maybe a coat of epoxy paint. The fuel tank is mostly empty. Any thoughts? Am I...
An update. With help from you guys (thanks ChampioNman) I got the handle off, no obvious wire damage. Put an ohm meter on the switch wires and "up" was dead Jim! Ordering parts today. Thanks again.
Thanks to all, great advise! Will dive in tomorrow...
Does anybody know how these come apart to replace the switch? Mine will go down but not up, the switch on the motor and the one at the bow work fine.384551

Picked up a 2000 17' Venom with a 90 Johnson. Its been 10 years or so since I last owned a boat. The steering feels stiff. I have pulled the cable off at the engine, the engine pivots free and the...
