We inherited a '59 Glaspar w/ Johnson 35 hp. It has always been garaged and and looks like new. Probably less than 100 hours on it. From previous posting, I plan on replacing hoses, impeller and old wiring. But, when pulling the carb, we can't get to one bolt behind it. Anyone have suggestions on this and other start up procedures? I have the service manual, but I am looking for the basics before starting it. Also, are parts available for a 40+ year outboard?
