    1995 johnson 48hp lower unit

    Thanks for the reply/update. Agree that it is designed to get oil all the way to the top. I am sure it would not hurt any to check the oil level after running it a bit. Thanks again.

    1995 johnson 48hp lower unit

    Boats.net like you said, at the bottom of the page they listed 35hp to 50hp from 1992 to 2004 models. These were all johnson models. They listed each model number also. That is very helpful. Thank you William 01.

    1995 johnson 48hp lower unit

    Thanks racerone. Helpful information. After doing some reading many people also saying these lower units are not very durable. Also reading that I could use a unit up to 2005. Any thoughts?

    Bypass the fuel connector at engine?'s

    The hose connection was fine. Not leaking. I found a good used connector locally for $20. All working for now. No leaks. Thanks Edchris177. Guess I'm still american cheapy scape. Hopefully no royal pita from buying used. Lol.

    Bypass the fuel connector at engine?'s

    1977 johnson 15hp. #15r77m. Any problems with bypassing the fuel connector . Mine is leaking. Tried different new and used hose end connectors. Still leaking at connector on engine side. Thinking of hooking hose directly to the engine/fuel pump. Need to know if this will give me any problems...

    Thanks for the reply. I am not trying to discourage people from buying the used parts that they need. I just got lucky. I believe finding a parts motor with the good parts that I needed. Thanks uncle Charlie.

    Thanks. For the reply. Been comparing parts #s they are the same. Donor motor a lot less $ than finding parts or the so called over priced kits on eBay. The flywheel alone is more than I can get this whole motor for. Anyway. Thanks again.
