Man you got that right!!! I love my old Johnson V-4. Its bad enough my

car is

way over my head, I dont need my boat there too.



I have the shop manual for my Yamaha F225. It's convinced me to keep
mitts off the engine.


It's worth having so you can double-check that you're not swindled by your
mechanic into replacing your fanozolator more often than you have to. Are
the 4-strokes every 50 or 100 hours for that service?


100 hour service cycle, but I will change the oil every 50 or better.
