Hi, John. I would start by not posting it in the Outboard Non-repair forum.<br /><br />You are probably going to need a lot more info, but you will get your best advice on that on our Mercruiser/OMC I/O forum.<br /><br />Gonna move it there.

If your sure it a 2.5 OMC its a Chevy. <br />Somewhere on the drive there should be a tag with a model no.<br />What year is it?
