🔍 Model Background
The Evinrude Johnson 130 HP Outboard (1986–1989) was a mid-range V4 two-stroke engine designed to offer solid performance, reliability, and versatility for recreational boaters. Positioned between the 115 HP and 140 HP models, it delivered a balance of power and fuel efficiency ideal for fishing boats, family runabouts, and small performance hulls.
Powered by a 1.99-liter (122 cubic inch) V4 crossflow two-stroke engine, the 130 HP featured twin carburetors, premix or oil-injected lubrication systems, and a robust mechanical design known for its durability. Its high torque output and responsive throttle made it a dependable performer in various marine conditions.
This model included CD ignition for reliable starts, compatibility with electric trim and tilt, and remote control steering. It was available in both 20-inch and 25-inch shaft lengths to suit a wide range of transom heights and boat styles.
The 130 HP outboard was popular among boaters looking for an engine that could handle moderate loads while offering smooth cruising and solid top-end speed. It earned a reputation for low maintenance needs and a long service life when properly cared for.
Today, the 130 HP from this era is still found in active use, valued by enthusiasts for its classic two-stroke sound, power-to-weight ratio, and mechanical simplicity.
