    Just a follow-up note on the connecting rod upgrade for this RD-18. Digging through some old files, I uncovered my long-forgotten copy of the Johnson Common Parts list and found that the upgraded 377272 con rod is listed as the common part for all models RD18 thru RD21. Lots of good information in this Common Parts list – wish I’d found it earlier!
