I would like to know year of Model # K7503110E of a Montgomery Ward Sea King 7.5

[engineercottontop]

It has a serial #1061795, Type #XTV 52259 and it is made by Clinton Motors. It is a water cooled engine.
I also have a question, the person I got it from told me it runs good but the spark on the spark plug (not sure if he is talking about the spark between the wire and the top of the plug which would concern me or the spark at the end of the spark plug, which I gather could be fixed (hopefully by replacing the plug). Thanks again for any help, I am much appreciate the experience and respect all the fine people who help the ones of us who lack in knowledge of these older engines!

It is a 1975. I don't know what kind of BS he is feeding you about the spark. I don't think he does either.

Not sure what e-mail addy is? I am going to get a puller today or tomorrow and try and get it off. I tried with larger screw driver, but I don't want to bust it up. If you will tell me how to send you a couple of pictures, I will do it as soon as I get it off. Thank you again!
