  • johnsonit 200 hp won't start

    I have a 1985 Johnson 200hp outboard. It wouldn't run for more than minute then it would quit. I have replaced the starter and solenoid ,powerpack ,coils , plugs and plug wires. I am getting both fuel amd spark to cylinders but still won't start. Since this is my first boat I don't really know much about outboard motors, any help will gratefully excepted.

    Check compression, if has spark and fuel should run if compression is even on all cylinders.

      what should the compression be on this motor?

        No more than 15% difference between cylinders.
