Yes, I got it yesterday. The carb looked good but has a cork float. I don't know if I should replace it, it looks fine to me. It's a good lookin motor, all there except for the front emblem.I don't think Sierra sells the float. The OEM kit has one. BRP 0439071. Is this a new motor for you?
Picking up a 58 18 horse parts motor tomorrow morning. I'll look and see what kind of shape the medallion is in. You're welcome to it if it's any good.
Cheers................Todd
That was very generous of you Sea18![]()
I'll say!
If you need something let me know. I have a few parts laying around.
Thanks
Maybe they should open a barter trade forum. Everyone has something to swap or give. I know I have lot of junk, scratch that, misc old stuff. Any body got a tiller for a 9.9 or 15 hp Evinrude?
I'll post a couple pictures soon. I got to give it a bath.CC67,
How dare you score a new motor and not post a pic???!!!!
Those danged emblems are a pain to find!
Good luck,
JBJ
Thanks Todd
As It turns out not all 15hp motors are equal. Mine is a 1975 and the gear and shaft assy is year specific. Different part # for 74-75-76. I imagine the gear is somehow different.Are you From England?

I got the motor this morning. Over all I'm pleased, It looks like the flywheel is straight at least. (the one on my 57 18 wobbles) The medallion doesn't look too bad. I'm pretty sure the screws are not correct and there are only two of them. But CC if you want to pm me your address I can pop it in the mail.
Ah '75, yeah '74 on were the "low profile" design weren't they? Somewhere in there. I imagine they are different.
Am I from England? No, born and raised right here in Oregon. Just out of curiosity, why do you ask?
