  • In this video we take the top of the broken outboard to change the condensers, coils, HT leads and spark plugs.
    This is a "how to" kind of video - (but not a video on how to spell Magneto proper like.)

    Interesting. Gave me the courage and inspiration to try and service my petrol lawnmower engine.

    i know this isnt anything to do with the coils,but where is the fuel pump if it has one?,i have almost the same engine and used this very helpful video to do some tests because mine wont start...(looks like it hasnt been touched since 1974),engine is black oil inside but no petrol so i think its the pump? cant find the info on any other video for these early models.

    What is an "H tealeaf" I couldn't understand the 'British English". I have the same motor, but it's a circa 86 or 1988 Johnson Sail Twin. Mine was running just fine when the RPMs declined, the motor backfired, and five minutes later quit, and we noticed an intense odor of burnt insulation. My coils contacts etc. were just replaced a few years ago, and it didn't run on one cylinder, so I'm suspecting something major coming up from the magneto. I hope it isn't the magneto itself. The local OB repair place now won't work on any OB older than 1990. Sigh. The OB is so light, and my back is so bad, that I've just got to fix this baby.

      H tealeaf..... haha, so funny.
      I'm actually saying " HT lead". The High Tension lead that goes from the coil pack to the spark plug.
      I know we broody love our cup of tea though.

      Hi, very many thanks for this guide. What size machine screws screw into the flywheel for the puller? I’m guessing they are not metric

      @@p81dap51 you need to make a puller (like the wooden thing with 4 bolts). The three small outside bolts screw into the cover. The big one in the middle will push down onto the centre and then it will pull the cover off.
      You can not remove the cover any other way.

      @@RichardBrocklesby101 I built a puller out of a steel plate and it sat tight I can say. now the lid is off, yippee.
      I have no spark on the spark plugs do you know what to look for first?
