Looking for info on Sears 5hp

[bernd]

I have a Sears 5hp outboard (chassis # 217-59311, serial # 200631). I would like to find out what year it is and how to get the prop off (it's frozen on the shaft). I'm also wondering if there is any point in investing any time and money into this motor, seeing as parts seem to be difficult to find. Any thoughts?

Would you be interested in selling this motor, if you do not repair it. ???

That's a 1972 engine. Engine parts should be easy to find since it's the same as a Techumseh engine.<br />Eska parts place.
