Just rebuilt my carburetor and fuel pump on my 92 twenty eight horsepower. Used OMC kits twenty something dollars each. Haven’t used yet but should be good I’ve done other engines before 👍

Hey. Thanks for tuning in. Wow a 28 horse, it's really a 30 but they started rating the hp at the prop instead of the powerhead.

Hey I was wondering if I could get your knowledge on a few things with my boat. I have an old 15’ fiberglass boat that weighs a good bit, it’s got a 1983 Johnson 25hp and I watched your videos a few years back to get it running. The boat gets to about 15mph ish I haven’t done a exact speed test but I want to get it faster. I was wondering what prop would be best for top speed and if it’s possible to carb swap the motor to get more power. I love the content, keep up the good work

Hey. Thanks for tuning in. 83 is a good year. When I had mine I put a 35 horse carb on it, didn't change anything else and gained a super solid 5 mph. It was a match made in heaven! I don't remember what the prop size was, you'll have to play with that, just remember that bigger isn't always better. Here's all the info you'll need. Thanks again ! forums.iboats.com/threads/80s-johnson-evinrude-25hp-to-30-35hp-conversion-with-pics.516146/

I have a 14.5' smoker craft with floor and cabinets(heavy little boat) with a 1999 J-25hp. I added a 1 and 1/2" block (cut on a table saw) to the top of the transom and gained 2 mph, also adding a bow mount trolling motor w/battery got completely rid of the porpoising. Hey, just curious, do you (or anyone reading this) happen to know the difference (in thousandths) between the HS jet orafice of j-25 vs. j-30 ? Thanks.

Hey. Thanks for tuning in. Yeah raise the motor the faster you go, like racing outboards, less motor in the water, less drag. Usually the 25 is a 59d and the 30 is a 67d size. Thanks again & Stay tuned !

@@THISOLDOUTBOARD1 love your vids of the 25-35 HP Evinrudes as I salvaged 4 25hp and a 35. Got them all going and your videos helped appreciate it 👍 I found a 25 HP Evinrude Sportster in good condition. They are pretty rare in Australia. I fitted a starter motor to it. Let the good times roll brother 👍
