Recently a friend gave me an Aquabug boat motor that he couldn't get running. I'm not sure just which model it is. I thought it was the 1.2 as it has a two blade prop. Problem with that is everything I have read shows the 1.2 with a float bowl type carb, thumb lever throttle, and weighing about 13 lbs.
This guy has a diaphram pump type carb, no float bowl. It also has a twist grip throttle and weighs about 8.5 lbs according to my bathroom scales. It also has a single screw clamp to hold it to the transom instead of the double screw clamp I see on the 1.2 illistrations I've looked at. It's about 29" tall overall. I need to find a diaphram for the carb to get it running. I'm not sure what I have or where to find parts for it. Anyone have any ideas about what model this is?

Edit... I did some more searching and found this on ebay. It's the same exact motor that I'm looking for the diaphram for. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/VINT...at_Parts_Accessories_Gear?hash=item27af6e82e4 He says in the description that he made the diaphram for it himself. Maybe I can get him to make me one.

Ahhhh Yes. Ohlsson Rice engines. They even used those engines on off brand chainsaws. That will make an interesting addition to your outboard collection.:D
