    Force 70Hp 1991 gear problem

    pnwboat is right about the pin being broken, looks real short. Year/HP/Model??? Depending on the year? the pics should work?? The pic below, #7 and #8 7 rides on #8 and stay's in place with a bit of Assembly Grease. The grease melts/dissolves quickly and the gear oil lubes it after that.

I gave you test things for a motor with Prestolite ignition. IF???? you have a points ignition??? then...

    1988 50hp Force coil pack to cylinder order

    Get the FACTORY manual. for a 1988 The huge backfire is probably the coils were backwards or there was an over fueled situation(flooded). Did you bother to do a compression test? These 2 cyl. motor can start and run on 1 cyl. not great but they do run.

    Tools required for lower unit reseal

    Just use a sealer on the mating surfaces of the new seals. Use grease or something like Anti-seize on the bolts. Then do a pressure test. You can find U-tube video's on how to make a pressure tester.
