      I was given a Sears Ted Williams 4.5 outboard with
      a Tecumseh power head and Eska lower unit.
      It’s model 217-5946-4.
      It’s complete less the missing carburetor.
      Sears parts diagram says it’s Carb assembly 631724.
      I presume it would be a Tecumseh carb?
      The unit has a built on gas tank with a valve to
      use a remote tank as well, so I presume the carb
      must have had a impulse pump attached.
      Anyone know what Tecumseh carburetor this
      unit used if I deem the outboard worth reviving?
      Thanks, Buccaneer

        I think this one only had the rubber pump element installed in the carb body. The carb should be fairly common among small Eska/Sears outboards.
        A donor motor might be your best bet .

          Thanks Retiredoz, will keep an eye out for a carb.
          There appears to be plenty of engine parts
          for the Tecumseh end still available.
