About a week ago I tore into my 71' (I believe it's 71) Sea King 7hp outboard to replace the lower end gear grease with fresh. In doing so, I ran into a slew of other issues all of which I have finally managed to fix. (broken roll pins, recoil spring acting up/getting stuck, etc.)

Hello all. I had my Sea King k700 2107a apart yesterday to replace the old sticky grease in the lower gear housing with fresh gear oil instead. I reassembled the housing and quickly found that I couldn't really turn the prop. I pulled the pull cord to see if that would spin it, nothing. Well...

Hello guys! My dad has had an old Firestone boat motor sitting in the shed for years now and I finally grabbed it in hopes of getting it running. The motor DOES have compression so we are off on the right foot. I took the carb off and it looked pretty clean. Gas is moving through the line as...
