    1951 10 HP Johnson QD-10

    I am working on this motor for a friend. The top cylinder has 65lbs compression and the bottom has 70lbs. It needs the carb rebuilt and the starter return spring. I have been unable to find any parts. I have only found 1954 and newer parts. Any ideas? Is this motor even worth it?
