Beautiful! On the left side of the lower unit there should be a door that has two flat head screws. If you take this off you can put a standard set of rabbit ears on it for water rather then a bin. Made things alot easier for mine. :)

According to my Johnson/Evinrude shop manaul (actual shop manual from the 1960's) your engine pumps water the way it was designed to. The thermostat closes to assure proper temp @slow speed. (so engine runs smoother) You will see small droplets of water at the exaust hole and sometimes some steam, (according to the manaual). I had a 100 hp 1967 Evinrude. It performed the same way. Enjoy your Johnson. They are great motors. Post some more pic's. :^)

50 year old johnson outboard runs againby oldfan772,418 views
According to my original 1960 Johnson/Evinrude shop manaual your engine pumps water the way it was designed to. the thermostat closes at low RPM to keep engine at proper running temp. (assures smooth running at low speeds.) The engine will spit droplets of water like you described and sometimes steam. like in your video. I had a 1967100 hp Evinrude and it performed the same way. Enjoy your Johnson. They are great engines. post more pics. ;^)

Another boating summer coming to an end and it was another great summer on the water! I guess I should make more videos...I belong to Golden State Glassics here in CA. We all own 1950's-60's fiberglass boats and the majority sport vintage motors as well.
Many of the guys/gals shoot videos on the water during our camping weekends and day runs. Also, documenting restoring of our Classics.
And YES! I have and will continue to take good care of my Johnson!!!!

I just purchased my 1960 Glasspar, with the original Evinrude engine and will join your group.
You don't launch with that VW do you?

Yes I do! In fact we chose the Elgin back in 1986 for its size as the only tow vehicle we had was our 67' VW bus. You just have to know what your doing considering the motor is in the back. Get a lot of funny/disbelieving looks on the launch ramp through the years. Back it in til the tailpipe touches the water and your good to launch.
