It's alive!!!! I don't know how many years its been since that little Johnson kicker motor has been run, but fuel line was plugged solid with crap at the tank and at the carb. throttle valve was stuck, and the choke was frozen in place. Took it all apart, cleaned it up and re-assembled with new gaskets and float and she fired up on the 52nd pull of that pull string. After that, she seemed to run great, smooth and water seems to be flowing properly. I ran her for about 20 minutes... It should be able to keep a steady 1 to 1.5 knot troll going....... or limp me back to shore if the 175 merc dies.....
