Hello,
My friend asked me to take a look at his 1979 mercury 7.5HP electric start motor.
It didnt turn over this spring.
I opened a few things up and it is pretty corroded in there. Probably not worth trying to save.
What information do I need to identify potential candidates for replacement powerheads? Am I stuck with 1979 or will other years work?
He would prefer to keep it electric start but if dropping that opened up more possible options it would be ok.
Thanks.
