Installation Guide

1. Safety First: Ensure the engine is turned off and the ignition is disconnected before starting.
2. Access the Carburetor: Remove the engine cowl to locate the carburetor assembly.
3. Locate the Cam Follower: Identify the old cam follower on the side of the carburetor, where it engages with the throttle cam.
4. Remove the Old Part: Carefully detach the old follower from its mounting point. Note its orientation and position.
5. Install the New Follower: Position the new cam follower and secure it in place.
6. Check Alignment: The carburetor roller should contact the cam and just start to open the throttle butterfly when the scribe mark on the cam is centered with the follower. Adjust if necessary.
7. Test Operation: Manually operate the throttle linkage to ensure the follower moves smoothly and correctly actuates the carburetor butterfly.
8. Reassemble: Once confident in the installation, reattach the engine cowl.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I confirm this cam follower fits my engine?
First, check the "Compatible Engine Models" table to see if your outboard's horsepower and stroke type are listed. This part is confirmed to fit a 1981 7.5 HP Johnson (Model J8RCIC), and is listed for many others. The most reliable method is to cross-reference your existing part number with those listed, such as 0323327.

What is the function of the cam follower?
The cam follower is a small but essential component in the carburetor linkage. It rolls along the throttle cam, which in turn controls the opening and closing of the carburetor's throttle butterfly, regulating engine speed.

My old part has the number 0766402. Will this part work?
Yes. The original BRP/Johnson/Evinrude part number 0323327 officially supersedes part number 0766402. This part is the correct updated replacement.
