Does anyone know the pitch of a Michigan 7 1/2 diameter bronze AM191 prop? For what engine was it made? Number 2: What is the pitch of a Michigan bronze 10 3/8 prop diameter SMC54 made for an Evinrude --someplace around 35, 45, 55 horsepower? Thanks in advance, Frank.

OK! This is a difficult one. are you up for the challenge? What is the pitch of a MICHIGAN AJ702, 13 inch diameter, cupped, 15 splined, solid hubbed, bronze racing prop? Probably from the 1970s and used on Mercury engines. It was advertised as 21 inch pitch but I doubt it. It looks much more...

Does anyone know the pitch of an aluminum 10 3/8 diameter OMC prop--Michigan number 012084? Thanks in advance! Frank. BTW: I re-hubbed it and it is now a Chrysler prop.

Gentlemen: I had to return my manual to the library before I finished reassembling and that library is 50 miles away. Evinrude 115 V4 60 deg. looper, 1996. In the front under the air silencer are a green and a black wire with bullet connectors. Black wire is female and green wire is male. I...

Today I took Amanda Ford out onto the river for her pre-season shake-down run. Everything went well. I changed a couple of props to check performance and nothing was amiss. I ran the Chrysler 140 for about ten minutes on the last prop change then put Amanda back on the trailer. After dragging...

Michigan aluminum 13 inch prop, 4 inch hub. Michigan Number SPM 321. The "P" is double struck so it could be SBM 321. Does anyone know the pitch and if it is Mercury or OMC? Thanks. I bought the thing on ebay because it was painted a pretty metallic blue.

Gregmsr: If I remember correctly, Gojo is soap suspended in propylene glycol. Not only is propylene glycol an excellent solvent for oil and grease, it is an excellent lubricant for rubber. It should not hurt your force water pump impeller.

My manual is really not clear. In order to remove the block, must the two 3/4 inch head bolts holding the steering arm be removed? Also are there any "hidden" bolts? I removed the six 9/16 head bolts from the midleg and the 3/8 head bolt under the thermostats--also the two 3/8 head bolts near...

Gentlemen: Save me a little hassle. On the 96 60 degree 115 looper, Which way do the taper pins that locate the front and rear halves of the block drive out? Toward the front or rear of the block? The taper is not very pronounced and the manual doesn't say. Thanks!

OK Gentlemen: I am refurbishing a trailer. It was originally dual axle but I have the option of converting to single axle. Weight is not a problem as it will only be carrying 2600 lbs (net) Tare: 1,000 lbs (single axle), Gross: 3600 lbs. Given the same boat on it in either configuration...

This really belogs in general engine forum but I used it on a Chrysler --SO: For those of you who do their own engine work----- Earlier today I was down in my garage. I wanted to install a piston RIGHT NOW-- but my ring compressor was in a really safe place. That usually means a couple of...

OK Matt: As I said in the prop forum, the Merc prop you bought has a diameter larger than the stock prop, it is also cupped, and it is killing your RPM. However, I would expect your newly rebuilt engine with 140 PSI compression to turn a stock 17 pitch prop a little faster than the RPMs you...

Well, I went and did it: I bought a late 90s Force. Don't know the exact year because all model number plates are missing but it has the Merc midleg and Merc ignition. It also has the single ram tilt. Got it real cheap (very poor condition) and only bought it for the exhaust cover, head, and...

Hey guys! It was available so I used 3M 5200 marine adhesive/sealant to glue the plastic CHRYSLER letters (chrome plated plastic letters and medallions off junk-yard cars) onto my outboard hood. It still feels a little rubbery after about two weeks. Question--Is this compound strong enough so...

This post is actually for you fellows who have in the past questioned the use of bent electrode plugs to replace surface gap plugs. I recently bought a '79 Chrysler 140. Didn't have much time when I got it home so I just did a basic compression test--thumb over the plug hole. First, I noticed...

Well, I finally went and did it. I bought that 25 inch shaft Chrysler 140. Anyone know the year of 1401H9A? Winter project--everything looks ok except for no compression on #3 cylinder. Good lower unit with long drive shaft, passable aluminum prop, Starter works, water pressure gauge...

Even though they are out of business, Is it still possible to get an axle for a Caulkins trailer OR do I need to have one custom made? I just inherited a nice Caulkins double axle, galvanized, over 5,000 lb trailer. Frame is excellent. Front axle is good, rear axle is shot--was replaced with...

Has anyone ever run or made a hydrofoil boat? I am not talking about Doel Fins and other hydrofoils . I am questioning about a boat with two wing type foils about midway on the hull and a single wing at the stern. At speed they lift the hull out of the water and only the prop and two foils are...

BAXTR: Everytime I try to reply to your pm, I get cut out. So I will answer here. Besides, I think some of the forum members will be interested. When I told the fellow that he should be unhappy if he got less than 45 mph, my reasoning was this: It was an 18 foot Bayliner Cuddy so the length...

OK guys1 I don't cross reference serial and model numbers. I just picked up a Chrysler 55 Hp model #559V3S. What year please? Thinking of parting it out and I need to know the year for potential buyers. Thanks very much.
