Re: Super Fastwin restoration hits a snag.....problems in the lower

those washers are just 2 of the many, many, many things I need to buy for this project, but yep!.....they're on the list.

Speaking of parts to be ordered, is a complete "lower unit seal kit" available for this unit? When I go here http://www.iboats.com/Evinrude-Lower-Unit-Seal-Kits/dm/view_id.269241 (and/or other similar parts websites), a '53 15HP isn't listed.

I can't find a kit either, but you may be able to piece together one at the link below.

You'll need to buy individual seals for that motor as a kit is not available.

Ah, yes. The "a la carte menu".....which, as it's required, I'm fine with.

Except: Anybody know today's (Sierra, etc.) driveshaft seal number? The OMC part number was 41A62, but I can't seem to cross that to anything.

The rest of the stuff I can source, but the driveshaft seal eludes me.....

has a seal kit. It actually has extra seals, but everything you will need.

I ended up going a la carte.....and placed a pretty big order for a ton of this-and-that, in the quest to make this engine run again.

I got my hands on a 15012 parts list and that helped a great deal....between it and my dial vernier, I was able to find seals from the sierra catalog that will work.

If anyone needs the parts list, I can scan & pdf it....just let me know.
