Fuel Pump Conversion Kits Dual Line to Single Line 1953-1973 7.5, 10, 15, 18 HPs Johnson Evinrudes

[@collinschubert6940]

Thats awesome you collaborated with another prominent vintage outbard youtuber and that an important part of this was created by him. Would totally get one of these if I had a dual hose system.

[@thisoldoutboard]

Fantastic! Thanks for the mention.

[@johnruppe1699]

I was pleasantly surprised he is using your plate. I bought it 2 years ago and it’s worked perfectly ever since. You make a great product. Thanks for putting that out. To-Mike obviously went with the best product on the market.

Hello I bought your 15hp kit but when I try to start the engine it pushes fuel out the front of the carburetor any suggestions on the problem would be appreciated

Love your content on these old motors. Even more excited to see your bourbon collection in the back. Cheers

The pressurized tanks I have seen a few that have caught fire.

[@joaquinsantillan6257]

Maybe a video on right tank and lines would be awsome because theres so many out there thank u for the videos and knowledge! 🙏subscribed!

[@joaquinsantillan6257]

What size connector do I use that goes to the tank and do I still need a hand pump prime ball on the tank?

[@michaeljsimon]

Text me at 337-278-5429 and I’ll send you the info. Thx

[@Sooperdooper74]

The larger hose included doesn't fit through the hole anymore. Shouldn't we be using a 3/16 instead?

[@michaeljsimon]

@@Sooperdooper74 3/16” will not fit on fuel connector. You can always enlarge the hole.

[@jasonluther4077]

What fuel line connectors do I use once I put your fuel pump conversion kit on my 59’ Johnson 18hp ?

[@williamcraven1777]

I have a QD14, what about the sediment bowl? Is it eliminated?

[@michaeljsimon]

No it still needed

[@JackStrobel-i4z]

Mike - which one will fit a 53 15hp evinrude? Thanks

[@michaeljsimon]

Not sure if this one is right. www.ebay.com/itm/404256760507?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=sn3ajpvKTka&sssrc=2051273&ssuid=sn3ajpvKTka&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

[@EricFager]

That’s an easy install. I have an aD-11 Johnson seahorse. Does the cover go on with no trouble? I don’t want to make a hole in it.

[@michaeljsimon]

Yes works great - selling plenty of these kits.

[@scrmn53]

With this conversion, will the hood still fit on?

[@Gunther.1802]

will the 18hp conversion kit fit my 15hp 1956? FD-10 i need help

I made brass pulsation 90° adapter on lathe 😁👍🏻

[@dennis6325]

Question: Your kit pictures a single fuel line. Yet the outlet nipple on the fuel pump is much smaller than the inlet. Don't you need two different size fuel hoses? Or did I miss something?

[@michaeljsimon]

The clamps provided will tighten for a good fit.

[@dennis6325]

Thanks for the quick reply. A friend of mine has a late 1950's Johnson 10 hp and would like to convert. I am glad I stumbled across this video and was pleased to find you have taken the time to make a complete kit. Bless you for seeing a need and doing something about it.

[@Sooperdooper74]

How are you. I saw the same thing. I ordered and received the larger 1/4 fuel line. I bought an additional 2ft. 3/16 fuel line, from the pump to the carburator. It just made sense to me as well.

[@billhuntington5163]

Will this work on my 57 johnson 5.5hp? Thank you.

[@michaeljsimon]

No - thinking there are no bypass covers on the powerhead

[@captnjack5637]

T-Mike will the 18hp kit work on a 56 30hp Johnson?

[@michaeljsimon]

Not sure if exhaust cover would fit.

[@eaglerestoration8088]

Could you do a video on converting your gas tank to single line using your old tank because it's a cool look

[@jacksonmiller279]

Will this work with a 1963 18hp fastwin evinrude

[@michaeljsimon]

Yes

[@jacksonmiller279]

Perfect just ordered it.

[@go-to-H2O]

Quick question, will this work on a 1953 15hp evinrude? The title says 1953, the eBay listing says 1955, thx for the great information

[@michaeljsimon]

Don’t think so - do you have exhaust bypass covers?

[@go-to-H2O]

I believe so, a rectangle cover on the back left side of each cylinder. Would your original method work? -Blocking one of the ports behind the reed plate, then adding a three line fuel pump

[@michaeljsimon]

@@go-to-H2O yes

[@paullasseigne]

Does it make the motor more fuel efficient also are you still in breaux bridge

[@michaeljsimon]

No and moved to Toledo Bend

[@paullasseigne]

Ok are you still picking motors I have 2-3 and some parts if you’re interested

[@michaeljsimon]

@@paullasseigne thx what type motors?

[@BlacksmithSportsman]

Have you ever considered making a kit to convert the 5.5 to a single line? A little bit more involved, but having a kit with all the pieces would make it easier...

[@michaeljsimon]

Great idea

[@caulkdaddy1]

TMike….I have exactly this. 1956 Johnson 5.5 dual line that I can’t seem to find a pressurized tank for. Now looking to convert it. Can you help guide me with a 5.5 conversion??

[@BlacksmithSportsman]

@@caulkdaddy1 kzbin.info/www/bejne/fZPUZpuqf5WIacU This is a T-Mike video that explains how to do it. You would use the carb manifold technique.

[@caulkdaddy1]

@@BlacksmithSportsman wow. Thank you and thank you for the fast response. I am learning a ton from your videos! If I haven’t already said it, thanks!

[@caulkdaddy1]

@@BlacksmithSportsman I have another question. I am trying to scroll thru your vast library. Do you have any videos showing a full tune up of a 1956 Johnson 5.5 CD-13?

[@jerrystark9820]

Will this work on a 10 horsepower? Qd15 1954 Johnson

[@michaeljsimon]

Yes
