    As always, wonderful sage advice!  I have not spent any time at all on the motor since I just picked it up,  but I have noticed that the flywheel only turns about 1/3  the way in either direction and the prop turns as well.  I have no doubt that it can be many things including rusty cylinders, crank shafts, gear boxes, etc… but the pot metal bushing comment in the video did get me thinking.  I will attempt to pull the flywheel as well as continue to soak the cylinders.  Even if I do not get it running, it is my perfect display motor and can’t wait to give it a little polish!  I have read so much valuable input you and a few others have taken time to share with this outboard community….a great big THANKYOU from us newbies!
