interesting.. I didn’t notice that plastic linkage reversal.. I’ll get it fixed, but I think that would just be a position thing.

the original 115 had a cylinder turn into a meatball about 12 years ago. I sold the long block to a guy who was going to rebuild it in lake champlain.
couple years later I found this 140hp bubbleback on a electric transom, the lower unit had self destructed.
The seller said the powerhead had been bored .30 over and was “a good runner”.

I accidentally had the throttle up on start once and it revvs up very impressively… it’s just not happy at Idle.

I dropped the powerhead on the LDrive and put it in storage, been there ever since.

I’ve been selling online all year and with all this government molesting the economy with all their inflation/stimulus and PUA/jacked up unemployment I’ve been selling stuff like CRAZY. So I pulled this jetboat out and trying to get it sold.
