Thanks for the encouragement guys. I thought about it more and I am going to take your advice and keep it in hopes to get it together again down the road. The motor can sit in solvent for as long as it takes since space isn’t a problem. I will proceed to clean up the other parts, bag them up and store them in tubs. I did find it encouraging that the lower unit was in good shape.
I still have that electric start Speedifour that you helped me figure out PM T2 sitting on a stand waiting for a better gears for the lower unit. I did get the new bearings, bushing and propshaft turned but those gears are a bugger to find.
Thanks,
Paul
