[QUOTE="MrSimon, post: 201387, member: 5461"] I had a 40HP Johnson similar to yours. Mine would crank and crank for a long time before it would finally start. I fiddled with it for months until I figured out the problem. I had a bad fuel hose going from my external tank to the engine. The ball wouldn't get firm when I squeezed it .... hardly any gas getting to the motor. Bought a new hose .... problem solved! Fired up right away. [/QUOTE]
