First and most important. Do not try to run it until you mix up some 16/1 Gas/oil mix. Shame to ruin an excellent original like that one. Take out the spark plugs/ ground them, spin the flywheel and look to see if they have a good blue spark. Best to use some other motor until that one has been thoroughly checked out and serviced. You will almost surely need new Leather Primer Seals and instructions to install them. If so, send $10.00 cash and a self addressed stamped envelope to me Lloyd Lautner 9289 North Long Lake Road, Traverse City ,Michigan 49685. Lots of good info at pochefamily.org/outboard but note that the price there for primer seals is about 10 years old. If you order the primer seals and instructions, you will also get my phone number so you can call me for help with various issues.
