Has anyone been running a 2004 johnson 140hp 4 stroke outboard for sometime. I bought one with the sea hunt boat i got and wondering if there is anything i should be keeping an eye out for any problems. I have only had one chance to run the outboard for an extended period of time.
Any help will greatly be appreciated.
Thanks,
Speedy

I've got about 150 hours on mine. Excellent performance so far. Only problems are that when you change the oil, the location of the drain plug can lead to a bit
of a mess, and you have to take the lower cowling off to change the oil filter. Oh, and the fact that nobody besides the dealer has clue about parts for the engine.

1000 (500 on a pair) hours with ZERO problems.

Abeal2 and Fermentorman, I appreciate the information. Makes me feel better about my outboard choice.
Thanks,
