[CDN BEAVER]

Hello, and thanks to all those who have already helped along the way.

Can anybody tell me if Im missing something? This pic is a view of the lower unit. It seems that there should be something in the large round hole, but I have no idea what it is.

Second, Im alittle unsure how the idle wire that goes from the ratchet for the fast idle to the engine is attached/routed to the engine. My seloc manual doesnt show it very well. I hope the pictures better show what Im trying to explain. If anybody can verify that the routing is correct, or post a picture of a similar engine I would be very greatfull. I believe the 15, 18, 20, 25 models are all very similar.

Lastly, could somebody tell me what all the different timing marks are for, and when they should line up with the mark on the manual pull start housing?

Thanks again for the help. These forums are the single best source of information.

In the large hole you need a trim tab anode (little fin looking thing). You also need a new propeller...badly!

As to the routing of the wire, I am unfamiliar with that motor.

The timing marks are used when setting the timing with a light; the procedure should be outlined clearly in your manual.

Did I mention the fact that you need a new propeller?:^
