Re: "Newer" 25/35hp OMC compatibilities

May I ask what the model and serial numbers are for this 35? check that the plate serial is the same as the round medalian on the block serial number.

They are my fav motor……….if indeed 1978.

And a few pics please?

Carb linkages and ignition plate cam follower..Roller?

Also the exhaust relief holes on leg under power head.

Is the tell tail hose connected to the top or the bottom of the manifold cover as well.

1977 35 was a lot of bits for 1977. 1978 was really different bits and ONLY for 1978. There is no comparison for later years at all. 1978 has to be 1978 bits.

PS: I have just read that it is on a pontoon……………what prop do you have on the motor? OEM part number should be on it or Diameter and pitch will be marked if not a genuine part. What type of pontoon? How fast does the motor push it now at WOT…….or……2/3 WOT?

Also: how far down is the motor into the water on this pontoon………….Pics would actually help a lot.
