      Tubs, is this motor going to Maine with you next summer?
      I hope you don’t get the deluge again!

        That’s the plan Bob,
        To take it and one of the others I have and
        run twins. I’ve been putting a couple 60’s
        lightwins on the boat the last few years.
        That video has got way more hits than any
        other I have made.
        Seems like the summers now are either hot
        and doesn’t hardly rain at all, or it wont stop
        raining. Last year I put the boat in when I got
        there and ended up having bail it out before
        I got to go out.
        Bailing out the boat use to be the worst but
        I don’t mind it anymore.

              What a great winter project Tubs! I’m sure you will make a brilliant job of that motor. Getting all the grime off certainly gives you a better idea of  what you have .

              Have fun!

                Tubs,

                You are the man to do this project! I wish you well.

                  Got to spend some time the motor.
                  This all I have for drive shafts.
                  I added some weld to the female
                  side to fit the mail side as best I
                  could. If I could take the male joint
                  off I could make a better repair but
                  its pressed on before a tapered hole
                  is drilled for impeller pin.
                  It would be difficult to aligned it.

                  Used the aluminum brazing rod here.
                  As usual with this stuff, it worked but
                  it was difficult and the result is not as
                  good as I hoped.

                    Tubs, I like your gear case “grease hole” repair.
                    Looks like it turned out pretty good!

                        Even back then the designers made life difficult for the mechanics!
                        I rarely open the hood on my newer vehicle anymore….. not much
                        I can or want to do there!
