    Well it was supposedly never in salt . The guys fil owned it and he lived on a fresh water lake and that where he ran it mostly .. I did find some water in the lower unit so it’s gunna need new seals ..
    I did the compression check with the pull cord cold .. 110, 115, 112, 115 … The original owner changed the necessary parts and added a starter ..Got a few extra parts and pieces including an extra starter . And it came with the original controls … It’s a bit crusty from sitting out side for a while but nothing that’s unfixable I believe ..
    Got him down to 350 bucks .. Hopefully I didn’t over pay but it’s sure should be a looker when it’s done ..
