1977 Chrysler 75 hp Exhaust Snout

[Randy W.]

I'm needing an exhaust snout for my Chrysler outboard. I just purchased this motor and the previous owner said it wouldn't idle well w/o fluctuating rpm. Could the lack of this snout contribute to this problem? Does anyone know where I can get the snout and the two bolts and the washer? I was told the part # is a A438118-2, but I'm not absolutely sure since I don't have a parts book. Thanks everyone!

Lack of an exhaust snout will cause exhaust to foul the prop leading to poor idle in gear and cavitation at cruise.

You can get a new snout from franzmarine@aol.com. If you don't like his price, Private Message me. I have an old one I would be willing to part with.
