I've got a leaky integral fuel tank on my Mariner 2M outboard. I believe the motor is about a 1980 vintage. Serial number is: 6A1 065514. It's a plastic 1 liter tank. I can't find any source of a replacement tank. It may be repairable, but I'm willing to buy a new tank, if available...
Bob1123, I had a question about the 24:1 fuel mix ratio. The reason I ask is I'm currently working on a 1954 Johnson 5.5 HP which calls for 1/2 pint of oil per gallon of gasoline (16:1). Are you certain your 1953 is calling for a 24:1 ratio? Buster7

I had the carburetor off my 1971 Light Twin (4HP) to check for a sticking float. (it wasn't stuck). On reinstallation, the high and low speed adjustment stems were off-center of their bores, where the splined knobs didn't fit well. I had to loosen the two carburetor attachment nuts, attach...
115 HP Suzuki<br /><br />I recently had an electrical problem and had to manually raise the motor to safely trailer home. I removed the hex head screw completely from the bottom of the pump, then manually tilted the motor while purging a couple ounces of hydraulic fluid. I replaced the bolt...
