    Force 120hp Major Overheat

    Have you inspected the thermostat for clear passage and/or fully opening? Is this oil; exhaust "oil" or gear oil?? It could be unburned fuel dumped into the exhaust, a closer look at the recirculation hoses/screen to see if clear is recommended

    Force 120hp Major Overheat

    Get the propper parts! You have the C type (or D ??) lower unit & you likely (should) change the seal around the shift-shaft I've attached the parts manual for reference

    Force 120hp Major Overheat

    Force 120hp Major Overheat

    Jerry you're correct, the water pump housing is not the correct one for this LU How it's possible to see water coming out of the relief holes (without the LU mounted) is beyond me

    My flywheel came apart at the bottom where some metal blades are stacked together any idea why?

    I hate to Hack a post but my curiosity got the better of me, there for my excuses. I have seen a few flywheels with the tiny circular blade bend upwards, does this cause a problem with firing and/or time?

    I think personality has more influence on the "throw away" attitude than age. Money would be a big factor at any age and for me it was always curiosity to see how things "tick" (work) As a kid I would take things apart to see how they work (sometimes still do lol) and due lack of money repair...
