I don't knowabout yours (I'm not an expert here.), but someone once told me they are made by Chrysler. I'm not a fan of Chysler, but I have a '67 3.5hp SeaKing & it still runs great.

I just got off the phone with Laing's who echo'ed the Chrysler made portion of what was said earlier. Also Clinton, someone who may know better please correct me if I'm wrong but I got the impession that if Clinton made it it's older than the Chrysler made ones. I have a 7.5 Sea King and it has a Clinton tag on it.<br /><br />I'd like to find someone who can source throttle parts for this. I need the nylon throttle gears for my motor.

I have a 7 1/2hp Wards Sea King and it's older than dirt. It has a Clinton tag on it also, so if Chrysler also made them it had to be after Clinton. harrison20002

Tom, what are you using for reference material? By chance can you date this 7.5 hp?<br /><br />Clinton tag:<br />Model XTV 50575 C<br />Ser I604745<br />Type X 751 7106A

I am pleased to report Clinton still seems to have parts for a bunch of this stuff.<br />Talked to them today and have replacement items on the way.<br /><br />They were a riot, give them the make and model and they will mail you a parts list you can order off of.

This is for Just__Glen; I also have a Wards Sea King with a Clinton tag. Could you post an address for them? I could use a few parts but someone told me Clinton went out of business. Last Spring I took the points & condenser to a small engine parts house and they matched me up with tec***se points, Worked good. Thanks Hal.
