Sears 3.5 hp

[ciscoyac]

Hi I have just gotten a 3.5 hp gas ourboard from dad, I think it is pretty old. I need parts for it. I can not seem to find parts for it and I'm not even sure who made it or the year. This is all the information on the motor plate.<br /><br />H.P. RPM Full trottle RPM <br />3.5 OBC 3500 3100 to 3900<br /><br />Serial # 64600310-1906<br />Model # 54760030<br />Sear Roebuck & Co<br /><br />Simpson's Sears LTD Canada<br /><br />Thank for any help you can offer.<br />Wendy ciscoyac@aol.com

Re: Sears 3.5 hp

Go to the Antique Outboard Club website at aomci.org and click on their Ask-A-Member section. Post your question and serial numbers and someone there can probably help you. Sears was a distributor for motors made by several different manufacturers over the years. You can still get parts for some Sears motors on their PartsDirect.com website. Good Luck!

I think you have an Elgin. Check the Model # again and see if it is 574-***** instead of 547-*****

Re: Sears 3.5 hp

I have a 3.5 hp Sears outboard that I need to dig out and start working on again. It needs a new reed valve (one of the 4 reeds is bent). This one has a Techumseh power head. I'll try my local Techumseh (and Briggs, etc.) small engine shop first, then the nearest (100-200 miles) outboard repair/buy/sell/trade yard.<br />ciscoyac, what state are you in? This outboard dealer is in central MN if you're interested.
