    why not fix it yourself and get a new hobby going see link on restoring a 15 “similar” to yours . which 15hp do you have (year and model)

    lots of help here on the AOMCI ask a member site to help out

    Before your get to involved$$$ the usual practice is to do a pressure test on the cyl…..and a quick check of the mechanical (seized ? shifts ok …? anything serious broken etc..

    you will need coils, points, condensers, impeller …the usual stuff if they are original or defective

    Chineese coils are cheap and work pretty good

    good motor nice project 🙂 don’t be scared to get the fingers greasy . Caution: fixing oldies is habit forming, infectious and… they double every year or two. 🙂
