71 20Hp Johnson - Starting A Dry Outboard /Oh that's whats Wrong! pt 6 - THIS OLD OUTBOARD

[@thegoldman246]

lve got to hand it to you your persistant. My shoulder was hurting just watching. One of my favorite sayings... persistance without insight will lead to the same outcome.

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey. Thanks for tuning in!

[@kenleydixon1365]

It’s always something but we always got you your the Man!!!

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey. Thanks so much! Stay tuned !

[@bobbyholmes3985]

To bad I'm not nearby. I can weld that crack up for you. By the way. Pull one plug out and start the engine with the drill. Maybe on cylinder running will help loosen up the junk in the exhaust trap.

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey Bobby. Thanks for tuning in. I appreciate that. Just gonna swap it, bolt hole also stripped. Thought about the one cylinder thing but I had enough for the day. Thanks again & Stay Tuned !

[@Dan_Akins]

Ready to see the next episode of “this Johnson is hard to pull”

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey. Stay Tuned ! Thanks !

[@VernonTate-y1i]

Talk about a pain in the neck that thing looks like a bear to pull can’t wait to see what the problem is see you in the next one 👍🏻🤘🏻

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey Vern. Thanks for tuning in. Yeah bear, barely pull it. Hahaha Thanks again !

[@stigjohnnysvin7334]

I digg your videos man😊

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Kool man. Just tellin my story. Thanks & Stay tuned !

[@TheSteelworker]

Loved the “high striker” bell each time you two were pulling it. Sounds just like the carnival. You just didn’t win no teddy bear today. If it was the carnival, you woulda won about 30 teddy bears. Had me cracking up! 🤣🤣 good video. 👍

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey SteelW. Thanks again for tuning in. Hahaha! Ding! Luv it! Stay tuned !

[@dbcooper692]

Wow, I see it is as hot as hell down there in Florida. I hope you're okay. Good beer-drinking weather!!

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey. Yeah were getting hot! Thanks again !

[@frankstamps7053]

If you put fiberglass cloth in the JB weld it becomes much stronger and the cloth prevents the cracking. I never use JB weld without fiberglass cloth. Try it, you will like it!

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey Frank. Thanks I will !

[@Kyle-bb9zp]

Sounds like the recoil is hitting the top of the recoil housing when Ron was pulling on him pull cord got my parts for my motor today in the mailbox. My 25 Johnson 1969

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey. Thanks for tuning in. Yeah its a mess. Thanks again !

[@doglegjake6788]

Pressure test the crank case and see if the crank shaft seals are sucking air

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

It has a crack in it. sucking air on the intake side.

[@whiskerdreams7146]

I had a 78 model 20hp was a mean bastard to crank,ended up putting electric start on it!!

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey. Thanks for tuning in. Yeah That's been a part of this whole thing! Check out the previous episode! Thanks again & Stay Tuned !

[@scubalurefishing]

New points/condensors? I have to put mine on a transom so I can use 2 hands to pull!

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey SLF. Thanks for tuning in. Spark is strong! Check out the previous episodes & Follow the Real Life Saga! Thanks again!

[@randyyoung9892]

😂 You guys should hit it with your purses next time 😜 just kidding looks like a good workout

[@mwatkins2464]

That’s funny 😄

[@jimmyhoffa7935]

😂😂😂😂

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hahaha! I'm surprised nobody but you seem to get the Johnson joke like they did in the last video. "Captain Ron pulling my Johnson" is much funnier then "I can't pull my Johnson". Hahaha I'm still cracking up! Anyway thanks for the humor and yes it was a workout!

[@GPOldMarineShop]

Looks like you got pressure back rings hence the higher compression. Still check lower cylinder too for ring movement. I would pull the head and check corrosion around the cylinders (delamination of aluminum from cast iron) which causes out of round upper cylinders. Usually occurs seen it many,many times making it hard to pull. Time the pull starter and replace that nylon pawl.....I would change the block half or get original tig welded to keep it an aligned original front & back casting. Can be done but your two tapered pins probably wont line up may get lucky I recently matched one up pin wise from about 15 blocks I had .. You know Its lined bored as an assembly.. Anyhoo Just sharing the Gospel of outboards with Ya ! HA! Good Luck!

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey Tink. Thanks again for tuning in. Yeah I'll be checking everything when I tear it down and swap the cracked block. I've swapped them before without a problem, I think I have a video somewhere! Hahaha Keep the Faith & Preach the Gospel Baby! The OUTBOARD GODS will bless you! Hahaa Thanks again & Stay Tuned !

[@GPOldMarineShop]

@@THISOLDOUTBOARD1 Yeah those loose headbolts could be a red flag who knows.Pull it hopefully its good on the corrosion front and roundness.....Wasnt sure in your video if you have those pressure back rings hard to see on my end maybe just the two thin ones...pressureback rings came out in 1972 production year along with two thin regular rings ..All replacement pistons & rings after 1971 were pressure back till the end of those motors run in 1976..I should write a book before I leave this planet I think,LOL!!!

[@riverakers]

Can you get it to pop on one cylinder.Plug out on top or bottom.Rotate after successfully running one.

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey. Thanks for tuning in. Yeah trying one cylinder was a thought but I had enough for the day. Thanks again & Stay Tuned !

[@mwatkins2464]

Tear down time!! Man what we do for fun 😂

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey MW. Thanks for tuning in. Yeah it's time. Stay Tuned !

[@jimmyhoffa7935]

You need to start a tough man contest with that motor. Invite sum young guys over to test their strength! Winner walks away with the motor

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey Hoffa. Thanks again for tuning in. Yeah that reminds me of a big cookout party I was throwing and I needed fire wood split. I challenged everyone to a log splitting contest. Any normal beer drinking dude couldn't resist, even some of the ladys joined in. Before I knew it I had enough split wood for the next two bbq's! Hahaha. Thanks again & Stay Tuned !

[@garyrichard2177]

I had a 40 Johnson that was hard too pull, found fly wheel key all most sheared

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey Gary. Thanks for tuning in. Yeah Spark timing way off! Thanks again & Stay tuned !

[@regio81]

You can do my friend I had a crack in mine too and swpped it out , it was fun and rewarding the jb weld stuff works for a little but rebreaks I'm time.

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey Luis. Thanks again for tuning in. Yeah time for a swap. Stay tuned !

[@jimm1975]

Good video series,on the 20 HP ,just like my 25 HP Johnson 1971, question, should there be any light showing thru the Reed's? I have my replayed off I'm able to see light through some of the reads, been having trouble with it, to Idle properly, should they lay completely flat,no light showing thru?

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey. Thanks for tuning in. No, no light. Yes flat. Thanks again & Stay tuned !

[@mattt6511]

Love your Chanel you’re not near Tampa are you? Looking for a outboard mechanic for my 73 Johnson 25 hard to pull also hahah😅

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey. Thanks for tuning in. Hahaha I'll let you know when my shoulder gets better! Thanks again & Stay Tuned !

[@lucatimer20khz]

A friend of mine is used to say that the 25hp 360cc are HAUNTED..!!!😂😂😂😂😂

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey. Thanks for tuning in. Hahaha he could be right! Thanks again & Stay tuned !

[@doglegjake6788]

Is it possible that Ignition timing needs to be checked?

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey. Thanks for tuning in! All done in the previous episodes. Thanks again !

[@artstates960]

Arm workout Tuesday. Ibuprofen Wednesday. Slap on some Jb weld for testing. 😊

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hahaha. Screw that ibuprofen I'll take the Jimmy Beam! Thanks again !

[@stanwilson8089]

A blockage in the exhaust will act like an exhaust brake that they use on trucks.If the motor spins without the plugs then it's not the rings.The high compression will be caused by the blockage in the exhaust system.Maybe flushing the exhaust and then blasting it with compressed air will clear it.

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey Stan. Thanks for tuning in. Yeah rings looked good, right, high comp due to blockage in exhaust, said that, yeah thats why I'm trying to start it to help flush/blow it out and clear it which did work a little if I could keep it running. Once I tear it down I'll be able to see more. Thanks again & Stay Tuned !

[@dougstarkey7128]

Have you tried a little shot of either instead of dumping gas in the cylinders? It would be quite a bit easier and you won’t flood it as much.

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey Doug. Thanks for tuning in. No not trying to kidnap her just start er! Hahaha. No never tried it. Thanks again & Stay Tuned !

[@Guns_N_Gears]

Maybe try to start it with only 1 plug in?? I suspect that drill should spin it fast enough to catch. If it starts, let it warm up, then try with 2 sparklers.

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey GnG. Thanks for tuning in. Yeah it crossed my mind, but I had enough. Thanks again & Stay tuned !

[@Guns_N_Gears]

@@THISOLDOUTBOARD1 Hey TOO, I will be tagging along to see what you find

[@stanwilson8089]

Acetone in the plug holes and block the exhaust at the bottom.

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey Stan. Thanks for tuning in. Hahaha. Wow isn't that like a suicide bomb? Oh I get it, just blow it up and end the misery! Hahahaa Thanks again & Stay tuned !

[@stanwilson8089]

@@THISOLDOUTBOARD1 Would I risk losing a pal?No chance,Haha.No leads on the plugs and an ovenight soak.Outboard exhaust flush. (Manchester UK)

[@garyrichard2177]

Much better

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Much! Thx!

[@melvinrawlings1457]

It would help if u had more of a solid stand so u can get a nice pull

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey. Thanks for tuning in. Yeah a friend of mine recently gave it to me. First time I've used it. It needs some work! Thanks again & Stay tuned !

[@mikesoresina7022]

Most likely carbon ,I had outboards that did the same thing in the test barrel .

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey. Thanks for tuning in! Yeah big pain in the azzzz! Hahaha Thanks again & Stay Tuned !

[@larryeaton4263]

It's gonna be hard to pull until you get the compression down to spec. I'd pull the head and see if it's carboned up in there. Maybe someone ran it with the wrong oil or too much oil.

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey Larry. Thanks for tuning in. There are no specs for compression but I know what you're saying. Yeah I'll be tearing it down. Thanks again & Stay Tuned !

[@randymiller1604]

Your starter recoil spring is to short and it’s gummed up and you might have a problem with the crankshaft and rods binding up

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey Randy. Thanks again for tuning in. I do believe the spring had been broken & fixed at one point. And I'm gonna find out what's going on in that powerhead when I tear it down. Stay Tuned !

[@jeffreyyoung8727]

It ain't no gas init!

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey Jeff. Thanks for tuning in. It got gas it can't get it! Thanks again !

[@stevengaines1935]

I would say it was definitely carbon build up

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey. Yeah nasty! Hahaha Thanks again Bro!

[@victorremick9721]

Pull rope needs to be longer

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Hey Victor. Thanks for tuning in. No, check out 7:55 in the vid! It full length! I do think the spring needs wound tighter. Thanks again & Stay Tuned !

[@4069ish]

I have a 25 hp Johnson that is giving me an inferiority complex.

Hey Vandos. Thanks for tuning in. Yep change it out. Thanks again & Stay tuned !

[@danielrobert7181]

Your drill must be camera-shy ! No, you really need to get a more powerful and/or lower geared drill. A used one would do the trick without breking tha bank.

[@THISOLDOUTBOARD1]

Yeah. camera shy. Hahaha Thanks again !
