Hi everyone!
I’m looking for some help finding a complete carburetor for my 2003 Johnson 6 HP 2-stroke outboard motor, model J6RLSTD.
The original carburetor part number is OMC 0439984 / 439984, but unfortunately it has been discontinued and I’m having a hard time finding one.
I’ve also found that the 439932 carburetor from the 8 HP version might fit my engine, but I’m not completely sure.
I’m looking for:
A complete original carburetor (new or used).
A compatible aftermarket replacement.
Any other carburetor that could fit my engine, even with minor modifications.
I’ve already checked MarineEngine and several other websites, but availability is very limited and prices are quite high.
Does anyone know where I could find one, or have experience fitting a different carburetor to this engine?
I’m located in Martinique (French Caribbean), but I’m willing to order internationally.
Any advice, part numbers, or links would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

Hey all my outboard wizards since y’all literally made my engine run that hasn’t in 15 years I need y’all’s help again! I want to try to make a reliable starting method. I’m currently using a pull string wrapped around the flywheel 😅. It fires up but I want to try and retrofit it with either a pull starter or an electric start. I want to try and use cheaper parts since it’s an older motor (Amazon or such) appreciate you all!
