buying chrysler 140 .....

[coolbikeguy]

went to look at a chrysler 140 this eve and heres what i found ... plenty of water flowed when running, compression is 125 + on all 4 cyl ( closer to 130 -135 but i was rushing and didnt write the #'s down ). started right up, the tilt and trim works, new shift cable last year, the only concern i noticed is that when you grab the motor down by the gear box and tug on it ... there is movement inside the leg ( if that makes sense ) i looked at the motor mounts but they didnt seem to be moving but i could be wrong. is this cause for concern ?? i am to pick it up tomorrow nite around 6 so i figured i should ask.

engine #'s are

1107H8A
1491

frank if you see this .. i pm'ed you

Re: buying chrysler 140 .....

I yhink what your describing is the lower leg bushings gone bad.It's gonna be hard to find them and harder to replace.
Think twice before you buy.J
