A 35 hp Johnson outboard typically requires regular unleaded fuel with an octane rating of 87. However, it's recommended to check the owner's manual for specific requirements, as some models may benefit from higher octane fuel depending on their condition and usage. Always ensure to use fuel that meets the manufacturer's specifications for optimal performance.
