Flambeau disassembly

[Dave Hostetter]

I will welcome tips for partly disassembling a Flambeau for cleaning and inspection. Recoil came off easily. How should I remove carb adjusting “wheels”. Can the fuel tank be removed without risking sealing damage to carb or other parts? Please advise, thanks

Good info Buc!

These are fun motors, but not really designed for intuitive disassembly and re-assembly. Take your time and it will come apart OK.

Fuel tank has to come off to service the carb anyway, so good time to do it.

Detail #254 needs to be removed to get the mag plate off. Screwdriver hole in the tank to access screw holding it in.
I spent an evening trying to get mag plate off so I could remove the tank before I saw detail 254 holding it in.

Maybe I should start working on mine soon so I could learn something
from your efforts. Mine is froze up, but no idea if it’s the power head
or lower unit yet.

Hi everyone i am new here and just started to work on my own flambeau and i was wonder if anyone new hot to pix or fix an new or used version of this part. The end has broken off

[Buccaneer]

Is it just 1/8″ pipe? How’s the part that it screws into?

Hey everyone I have fully disassembled my motor and have not been able to replace that part that has broken and i am trying to get rid of this motor, any ideas on who to give it to or how to sell it and it is available to any one on this site it can be fully reassembled is missing a few screws

All those screws that hold the clamshell together are different lengths. Take a piece of wood and draw their aproximate location on it in respect to their location on the motor. Drill holes in the wood and put those screws there.
