It will be best to remove the carb, disassemble, and soak the
metal parts in carb cleaner.The gas tank should be removed as well.
Remove the fuel fitting from the bottom of the gas tank.
Some models have a fuel filter screen attached to this fitting
which will often need replaced, or cleaned at the least.I often use a pint of mineral spirits and throw a bunch of
sharp wood screws inside of the gas tank, and shake the
tank a couple of times a day over a few days. Soapy
water and lots of rinsing will remove the loose residue.Good luck on your project! Hope to see some photos
some time!Prepare to be boarded!

There isn’t a service manual just for that motor.
Some info may be found in this general service manual. Try copying and pasting this link to see if that will work.

For cleaning out dried up fuel I like Berrymans B12 using the same process as the Buccaneer
describes. It will affect your decal though so be careful with it. I use Gumout for cleaning other
fuel system parts. I don’t believe there are any seals in that motor. Use lubriplate 105 or corn
head grease in the gear case as a substitute for the original grease’s that are no longer available.
This person is reproducing gaskets for earlier outboards on eBay. He may be interested in
making you what you need. I, like many others, just make my own.

Later coils can sometimes be adapted if necessary. Points should only need a cleaning.
A later condenser can be used if necessary.
Here is a video on how to remove the flywheel if there are no holes for a puller. I have welded 2 nuts together but if you just jam them together on the bolt it will work.

I use Supe Clean the purple jug to clean my tanks with
nuts, bolts, & BB’s from pellet gun.
Art Dekalb has a great check list for getting them running.

I have had a magnet charger for over 40 years. I have learned that although the magnets
do loose strength over time they still retain enough so the motor will start and run fine.
If you can find someone to recharge your flywheel great, but don’t bail on this motor
If you can’t.
Without knowing the exact value of your condenser a value of .25 mf in most cases
should be close.
You should test the coil windings. If they are not open its worth giving the coil a try
even without knowing the secondary value.
Need to see a picture of the mag to let you know of other possible coil options if necessary.
Spark plug wires look original. Good sign. Motor could be low hours.

Once you find the best running position set
the lever so it will be in the center of its movement
when the cover is on.
Only slight adjustments are necessary. Normally
slightly richer for cold starting.
