    Ok, just got back from the store, and, I bought it. Its a Johnson HD-25, 2.5 horsepower. By most standards, I over paid, but Im happy with it. It has superb compression, though, so that makes me happy and comfortable with the price.
    I think I am going to rename this thread either "1949 Johnson HD-25 Revitalization: A beginners perspective" or "1949 Johnson HD-25 Overhaul: A beginners perspective and guide for the total fool". When I get home from my vacation, the real fun will begin, with my trying to see whats wrong and how to fix it.
    For now, James
