!: Step By Step Guide to Troubleshoot Your Johnson Boat Motors

I understand that troubleshooting your boat motors is not a piece of cake for everyone; therefore, I have come up with this article so that I can help you as much as I can. I know that it is very irritating when you excitedly take your boat down only to find out to your disgust that its motor does not start. If you have Johnson Boat Motors then you will face any of the same problems that you might get with any other gasoline-powered motors. When all this happens and you finally plan to troubleshoot it on your own then you have to have some of the basic knowledge about how to make the engine run and so on.

If your motor engine is not working properly, there could be some error within the following three components:

Compression
Fuel
Fire

Follow the steps below to troubleshoot your motor:

If your engine is not firing, look for wires that may be disconnected or loosened. If all this seems fine, check the battery cables - - they may not be tightened properly.

If you have contaminated fuel, this could be one problem your motor boat may not be working. To check if this is what is causing your engine not to work, check the gas bag, clogged carbs, fuel tank, fuel pump, and fuel lines.

Cooling system is important to check. May be there is some problem with that which caused the engine to heat up and eventually not work. Therefore, check this and if you feel this is the culprit, go for changing the water pump impeller.

If none of these work, you better take it to a technician.
