@Faztbullet thanks for the info, i was talking to this guy about his parts motor and almost pulled the trigger
the more i look into this the more i feel like i should just buy a full running outboard motor to re power it ..........
so i cleaned the rods, bearings, piston pins last night .... i sorted it to good, minor imperfection and messed up.
I will get
4 good pistons
1 good rod
4 good big end bearings
1 good piston pin
I did not sort out the needle bearings
I am not sure what you mean by your comment of “step aside now” but I do appreciate your help, this is comming from a guy who knows zero about outboards and who has to research everything. I am trying to learn along the way in this wrenching adventure.
Local Guy has this listed with a parts motor says it’s a 2000
Google thinks it’s a 93-98 due to the stickers
What is the difference in ocean pro and non ?
i am guessing my measurements were off because i was using the rear ratchet for some and not for others so this was giving me a different tightness ?
I am into this for about $100 so far
bearings for trailer $60
used parts $25
800 grit sandpaper $?
but I am having a blast trying to make...
Ok so where do i go from here ? I need a plan ........ I want to put this boat back together the way it is supposed to be and to the best of my abilities. I can not spend a fortune on this as this is a WANT and not a NEED so it needs to be cost effective. It does not need to be on the water this...
Started to clean up the crank to see how good it would turn out, looks good but it still has Pitts in it that your finger nail catches on
I am thing this method works on cars as it has a bushing style type bearing ? And this has roller bearings that run on this surface ?
I called my local Evinrude dealer in St John's newfoundland looking for a crank. I told the guy it was a 1995 he said crank should be part # 434 769 and they are discontinued and out of stock in Canada :( and they were $230 .....
https://www.evinrudeparts.ca is out of stock also the guy there...
