I have a 1969 Chrysler 55 hp outboard missing vent and fill screws at the gearcase. Anyone know what size screws to use or how to rig something up with a washer and bolt that I could get at Lowes? I'm nowhere near a marine supply store. I was thinking a couple of #18 3/8 screw with a gasket or a washer might let me fill up the oil in the lower gear case so I can at least fire up the engine w/o risking the water pump. Any thoughts? Anyone know if I need to torque it?
The engine sat outside for 20+ years, but fires up w/ some starter fluid, new sparkys and a new battery.
