What is your question concerning the motor?
I really hate to post it because it's a technical question about something I want to do to my existing motor and I'm bound to get every piece of advice except what I'm looking for. That's exactly what I got when I posted the question on a boating forum.
"Did you check this or that first?"
"It won't make a difference, or not much anyway."
I got everything except someone to attempt to answer the actual question over there and in my 9 years here, I've seen plenty of that behavior already.
I'm not trying to be a jerk, but I've Googled until my fingers and patience were sore and I just want to get to the bottom of this. The local Johnson dealer was somewhat helpful but wasn't 100% certain. I'm looking for certainty so I can calculate cost and make a decision.
But what the heck. Here's my question, guys. The only question I'm seeking an answer to is -
What exact parts do I need to change my 2001 25 hp Johnson outboard to a 30 hp? I know it can be done. Possibly with as little as a carb change, but it might require an intake or modifying my existing intake.
If anyone thinks they can help, sing out, please and I'll share the exact model # of my motor for the purpose of referencing the correct parts.
Thanks.
