    This 40 hp being manual start, and me getting older every day, I don’t see
    me using this motor long term, even if it does run good. Therefore
    I don’t have the desire to throw more money into a sinking ship, lol.
    I rebuilt the lower unit, new bearings, etc., and may keep the motor
    just to have that on hand, as the lower unit apparently is from
    a 25 hp Evinrude, which looks like it will fit my RDE-17 Johnson nicely……
    that motor I do intend to use.

    Prepare to be boarded!
