Re: More 135 Johnson problems

How about the carburetor? Does it have a matching hole? If not, then the gasket doesn’t need one either. If there is a hole in the carburetor, I’m not smart enough to know exactly what it does. The cross slot in the manifold is sort of an equalizer or balance between the cylinders.

I believe the hose you are speaking of is a drain for the air box. Captures and recycles the drainage instead of doing it the old way, which was to dump it into the boat or overboard.
