Evinrude starts but shuts off right away flywheel becomes stiff

[Shawnfish80]

I recently bought a motor that was "stuck". I like messing with stuff like that. Long story short, the lower unit was full of water, no oil, and the driveshaft bearings seized..... "sticking" the motor.

I also like getting supposed "parts motors" and messing with them...youd be suprised how many people think they have seized up or "parts motors" that are actually decent motors after a simple fix....such as some lube in the cylinders for a day or so and they start and have decent or good compression..
