Model: VWB9073A
Serial: 56XG12646
I snagged it at an auction today for $35 + $1 for a clean 4-1/2G tank W/hose, bulb & quick-connect.
Got it home and popped the hood and my eyes bugged out. The entire powerhead appears pristine. Forced to guess, I'd say it has no more than 10 hours on it.
Earlier this year I sold one all but identical. <--The model on that one began with: VWB66---, so I GUESSED it was a '66.
Is it safe to GUESS that this one's a '90?
I suspect the low usage is owing to lower unit damage. It either froze or hit an obstruction and was welded - but it leaks.
Accordingly, can anyone point me to a source for a replacement lower unit shell?
