    Squier, you’re a wealth of knowledge on these old Johnsons!

    I got the power head back together again today. That’s
    always a good feeling!
    Next I start tearing apart the lower unit. Hopefully
    the gears, etc. are found as decent as the power head.

    Regarding the tiller handle. The light weight, 7/8" OD
    tube is only 6" long. It had a tapered wooden file handle
    tapped onto the tube when I got it, that made it about
    3" longer, but I’m guessing that feature was after market. 😕
    Am I missing something besides a "grip", or were they really
    that short?
