Thanks for all the input.
All the holes are clear. I tend to be a better parts cleaner than anything else.
Some motors call for a gasket below wear plate. Some not. We have not been installing one on this motor, but that must be the issue.
Thanks again.
And Frankr , if you’re still in FL, will you be going to the Lake Hamilton swap meet?
Hope to be able to meet you in person if so.
That actually applies to any of the guys in FL who have been helping me out so much!

Actually, I do plan to go to Lake Hamilton–I hope I’m able. I’m fighting a health problem. If I do go, I’m bringing my 1918 Evinrude RBM, with hopes of finding a home for it. I started restoration on it several years ago and have lost interest. My loss will be someone’s gain.
