bought a small outboard last week, johnson 4 horse two cyllinder 2
stroke probably from the late 70's/early 80's by the look of it. This
one has the throttle on the body of the motor. gave it a compression
test and things look fine, but its a ******* to start and runs a little
rough at idle. The motor looks to have had little use, but id say the
plugs are the originals from the factory! Im thinking new plugs, carb
clean and new points. First two are no problem, but the third?

These things do have points right?
Yes, usually.
