Hi watermann/SHSU I was working on trying to repair witeing problems but when I hook up battery and turned key on I let the smoke out of everything
I tyres to find parts but it's hard to find parts for1975 I did find new coil for310$ refactor?stator

I happened to find a comeplelt motor so I went on a 2 and a half hour ride to check it out i was told it ran 2+ yr ago
I brought comprestion tester muffs fule tank starting fluid taped some bare battery cables and it fired right up

after getting it home it had very bad gas lines so I started takeing it apart I noticed no trimming pointer and no marks on fly wheel
it does need water pump

I forced water through it with muffs plunged at inlet and put water through flush hole seem to run well

no tilt or trim but I could switch it and trimming pointer and flywheel?and save other motor for parts

I don't really need another motor but I wanted to fix the one that took off SS what do you think
