Johnson Outboard BOGGING! 1989 40 hp

This is a bogging issue I'm having with a 1989 Johnson 40 that has been sitting a while. It will not run at maximum rpm which is causing the boat to run very slow. This is caused by a clogged high speed jet. This video shows you the clogged jet. I did not go into detail on how to remove these carburetors because this is a common motor and there are other videos out there on carburetor removal. These carburetors come off pretty easy anyway. Thanks for watching! Please comment like and subscribe.

Great to see your still making these great videos. Keep them coming.

your rpm rang on that motor is 4500-5500, 5000 being optimal. May want to look into changing prop pitch
