🔧 Johnson Evinrude 6-15hp Motor Fuel Pump - 397839, 391638, 395091, 397274, 0388685, 0388833 Review

Engine will not start after installing fuel pump. I checked for faults and found that I was out of fuel. I replaced the new pump with another from the same engine and the engine started working. Also, the screw on the pump breaks easily when tightened, which is necessary to keep it from leaking.

First they sent the wrong size screws. Had to look for longer screws or failed to install. Second, I completed a short 10 minute drive.

As other reviews have suggested I had to drill a hole to allow the gas to flow through and reach the pump. 3) It worked great once I drilled the hole and installed - within a day. Pulled the boat into the water but it won't start. I smelled gas. I opened the engine cover and the fuel pump spat out gas…

Pump received all looks pretty good for use on a 1969 Evinrude 9.5hp outboard. I had to buy longer bolts to mount them to the engine but it didn't make much of a difference, just inconvenient. Went through the carburetor, dots, impeller etc. When it came time to start the engine for the first time in probably over 15 years I was able to get it running for a few seconds by manually injecting fuel into the carburetor , but it didn't seem to work. received fuel. The fill light seemed a bit odd to…
