    Flywheel Problem.

    I have an old {?} 7 1/2 hp Sea King. I went to install points and condenser. When I reinstalled the Flywheel I tightened the nut down and the flywheel was bound up. Thinking I had put the key into the keyway wrong, I took it off and put the key in the keyway up against the top of the Flywheel...

    Coil Wire Question?

    I just bought an old{70's} Wards Sea King. I picked it up and most of it was in a box. I've got it put back together except points, coil etc.<br /><br />Besides the plug wire the coil has two wires. One seems to be an extra. Normally, I would use it on a "kill" switch but the motor says to use...

    Be Careful

    Several months ago I mentioned that I had a pretty good OMC prop {from a stolen Patio boat} that someone could have for just the shipping. It wasn't doing me any good and I wanted someone to get some use out of it.<br /><br />A fellow contacted me and I sent him the prop, I got a nice thank you...

    For Schematic

    A couple days ago I posted a thread about changing a shift linkage screw from slotted to a hex head and you said you hoped I used stainless.<br /><br />If the original was a regular screw why should I have went to stainless? I haven't fired the motor yet so please let me know the reason.<br...

    Want to share a tip.

    This may not be a great revelation but almost everytime I install a L/U I seem to fight with the shifting linkage screw.<br /><br />The other day while doing this little chore I had a thought. I went to the hardware store and matched the slotted screw with a hex head screw. With the aid of a...

    Let me check one more time.

    About 15 years ago I picked up a friend at the Fresno, Ca. airport. He had been working on the Alaska pipeline. We picked up two of his three bags.<br /><br />He asked a Baggage Steward about the missing suitcase. The Steward seemed as though he was entirely to busy to even take another quick...

    What did I do right?

    I recently got hold of two outboard motors. The first one is a 9.9 Chrysler and the other is a 6.6 Chrysler.<br /><br />A Marine shop in this area just happened to have all the parts I needed to overhaul them. I finished working on them and tried 'em out. Both ran excellent. All the time I was...

    For Fouled Plug.

    Hi Fouled Plug, I just hunted up a box and packaged up the prop. Monday morning I'll take it to the P.O. and get it headed North.<br /><br />I'm glad I found someone who could get some use out of it. Wish I'd have thought of it sooner. Enjoy and good fishing. Hal

    Can anyone use?

    I have an aluminum prop and have no use for it. Two years ago I bought a 22' Toon. Before I could replace the deck and top, some SON OF A *%&^$# hooked up and towed it away from the storage yard. I hate a thief!<br /><br />Anyway it had a 25 hp Evinrude. Right now I'm sitting at the puter...
