The iboats forum moderators are excited to announce that at this time it appears the iboats forums posting pictures function is working once again. Though we cannot promise for how long, we're hoping for indefinitely.
Does anyone know if there are rebuild kits for OMC outboard starters in existence (bearings, brushes, etc)? OB is a 79 Johnson 150 V6, starter is an American Bosch. Thanks.
There is not an overhaul kit, but the brush kit and any other needed parts can be ordered from a Johnson/Evinrude dealer.<br /><br />Many Starter and alternator repair shops service small motor starters and have the common parts, also.
Hydrasport,<br /><br />Starters are very generic., Most share a pretty small universe of bushings, bearings, brushes, etc. Any good rebuild shop should be able to fix you up for a fraction of the cost of a new one.
