50 hp 1972 Johnson

[MasterBaiter]

I used to have a 50 on a 17 foot whaler. I also used to have a manual for it. I never throw anything out (just ask my wife)so I'll look for it. Either way it should be easy to find one for it. Try one of those used book stores online.

If I remember correctly there was a stator and unless it sank it should be fine. I would look at the points to be the problem, especially if neither plug has spark.

Is the Whaler a '72? That would mean it is a short shaft 50 - and that would be pretty cool and fast......
