    Stator 6hp non standard

    The powerhead has a ‘boss’ where the armature plate fits. This is where the grease is. If you use a center punch on the side of the boss, and punch the sides at 12, three, six, and 9 o’clock, it will put up a small wave of metal which will take up that space, and no more lateral play that can...

    1927 johnson k 35 ignition.

    With coils under flywheel, flywheel needs to be in correct orientation (keyed) for spark to be generated when spinning. You could torque flywheel down without key, in correct position to test if you don’t have a key..

    Best fuel stabilizer for older 2 strokes

    Alcohol absorbs water. E10 in tank/carb will absorb water over time, and phase separate.., then you are trying to burn water in combustion chamber.. If you figure out how to burn water.. let me know, and we’ll be extremely wealthy.😎

    Hub repair

    I have seen this repair using set screws instead of bolts after drilling/tapping holes. You would lose gear protection on rock strikes.. or shop right here: https://boatpropellers.iboats.com/Johnson-Outboard-Propellers/?chart=8&engine_id=30&cart_id=082274992 or a find a used prop. Good luck!
