I have a Clinton built Sea King K700-2107A Serial # 643121 Type No. 6027370R. My g/f's dad gave it to me since it wasn't being used and we just put a new water pump impeller and housing in it. Runs like a dream since he cleaned it all up years ago when he quit running it. He could not find the parts for it and searched a long time and then gave up. I found the parts for it right away because I found out that Clinton Engine Products is still being operated in Maquoketa, Iowa and I am from Iowa not too far away from there. I found the number and called and sure enough got an answer and ordered the original owner's manual with parts listings and diagrams. Then I ordered the water pump impeller and housing for it which were very inexpensive. I think it's an older man that is still operating the warehouse that it still stock piled with brand new parts that were never used. I say this because when the impeller housing arrive it was the casting and we just had to file the bottom a little for it to fit the housing plate properly like it hadn't been machined completely. Little work for not having to pay an arm and a leg. The phone number is 1-563-652-2411. I am telling everyone this because it seems I stumbled upon something amazing since noone can find parts for these things. Here is what I ask in return. When in neutral the prop still spins making me go forward but it does not let you go into high speed. When I shift into forward the high speed unlocks and I can then open it up all the way. How do I fix the neutral so the prop doesn't spin at all until I shift into forward? I know neutral should be completely neutral because the manual says so. Please help me fix this and I hope I have helped a lot of people get original parts they want.
