So I drilled a test hole in each and what I found is that they were hollow. Not even any wood dust inside as if they rotted away. The...

    Lower Unit Help

    I've been preparing my 1954 seahorse 10 hp qd15 that I bought a few months ago to be taken out for my first time. I ran it twice and got it tuned in for idle, it runs great and appears to pump water very strong spitting out the back. Now today I wanted to change the lower unit oil so I went and...

    1954 Johnson Seahorse qd-15 10HP

    Hi everyone! I'm new to this forum and also new at owning an outboard. A few days ago I purchased a 1954 seahorse 10hp. Supposedly it's just been completely serviced with a carb rebuild, new coils and plugs. I paid 150 for the motor and tank which I think was a decent deal. The only problem is...
