1991 Johnson 6 hp outboard part 1

Started working on my 1991 Johnson 6 HP Outboard engine. I guess you could say I am doing some maintenance work on her. Shes been an awesome machine. I was a bit surprised at how good the water pump looked after disassembly . That's ok . After 27 yrs,,,,,,, she need's some love. Thanks for watching

Thanks, Steve, that's it! I've got a Johnson J6BFCNR Model and could'nt find it on any list you get pushed to when asking in forums. I was told that the "cn" in the modelnumber says it's a 1982 model but all those videos about that modelyear show a different underwater housing. i spent HOURS(!!!) searching. But this one from your video is like mine *yippieeee*👍👍👍

Just went through my 1961 johnson 6hp new water pump carb kit and points and condenser got to put a new coil on it now. It had been sitting in a closet for about 25 years.

Boy that is one thing I am lost on, watercraft. Its pretty neat to see how those things work.

[@stevekline7247]

They are fun .She is a two stroke. It can push a 12ft aluminum boat pretty nice.I have her in Canada doing some fishing . Thanks for watching buddy !!!

Steve Good to see you on here again !!! Getting ready for those lake perch are ya ? We enjoyed many years of your lake perch from Bruce Bradford whom owned "The 2nd Amendment" which was the Baddest Punkin gun in the world !!! LOL have you ever heard of that machine? he lived somewhere close to Muskogen ?? I know that's not spelled right... and he came to Delaware ever year for Punkin Chunkin ! We used to have a Pontoon boat and I have had to replace water pumps and fill lower units with oil and I did my own winterizations and spring start ups... Man I miss that boat !!! Looking forward to watching this outboard come back to life .......

[@stevekline7247]

That's a bit north of me,,,, Nice name for a pumpkin gun :) Finally getting outside. Nice day today here. Got to move on to the fuel pump, She has always ran good but want to keep her that way. I foged her two yrs ago. Boy the spark plugs had a gummy coat on them. Had to clean them before she would start !

[@rafawojtaszczyk1409]

hello, how many Nm is the head tightened in this model?

[@LonelyGlue]

Do you ever reseal that yellow cap the impeller unit sits on top? Got the kit to do it, but Can’t decide if mine is leaking oil And don’t want to damage it as it seems seized down.

[@stevekline7247]

Never have, after I installed the impeller that is it. to replace the oil in the gearcase you never have to go this far. This is for water pump only. There is no oil involved . I am not sure what could be happening if you are getting oil on or in the "yellow cap" that you see in this video. Please watch all "1 and 2" videos on this that I posted. this video is only part 1. the 2nd part may help . If not I am sorry

hello, I have the same water, where the hell is the water pickup for this engine,

[@stevekline7247]

Little round screen by the prop. It is cast into the lower gear case on flat part. Actually when the prop turns it helps to force water . Keep the little screen clean . Its down by the prop above the nut that holds the prop on

[@csmith0244]

Is this the same as a 6hp evinrude?

[@thomasweatherford4975]

Yes

[@evinrudej]

Would this apply for a 1985 8hp Johnson ?

[@stevekline7247]

I would say yes. Not 100% sure but just looked at one on line and it looks just like my 6hp. The shifter rod might be a little different but the over all job very similar. Thier is a fella on youtube called Brandon's garage and he works on outboard motors . Check him out too! He does many different Hp Johnsons and Evenrude engine videos.
