Default Good to know!

Thanks for the great info!


quote=yarcraft91;1165484]Another thought on that 120. On my 1991 model, the water stream from the indicator hole is not very strong- doesn't shoot out like the newer Mercs, just sorta runs out in a stream about as big around as my little finger. It's been like that since new and a replacement water pump didn't change that, so apparently it's characteristic of the motor.

Easy motor to winterize- get an aerosol can of fogging oil or Seafoam Deep Creep with an adapter (built into some Johnson/Evinrude product cans) to connect to the Schrade valve on the fuel line just under the fuel pump. Push the dispense button for 20 seconds while the motor is running at idle and fogging is done! But, whatever you do, don't change the position of the valve handle!! That will flood your engine with oil.[/quote]
