I have recently bought a 1966 starcraft Caravel with a chrysler 75 (electric)motor. According to the last owner he had it running a short period of time before I bought it. I dont have the original key, but do have a key that seems to work. I can push the key and the chockes click shut or I can turn the key and the chokes stay open. I have replaced the plugs with new ones that were the same type that were in there autolite 303. gapped at .003. The motor turns over and with a shot of started fluid attempts to run for about 5-10 secs then stops. I'm not that familiar with this motor and hoping its something minor. The numbers on the motor are as follows S/N 3572, Model #75671, 75HP OBC. It looks like someone has changed out the solenoid with a compatible one. Also looking to find where I might be able to find the gasket /seal for the little glass fuel bulb.
