    I   refurbed about 6  turtles but  never encountered any problems with the rubber mounts. I ear they are a pia to replace  because you have to take the lower housing apart.

    there are probabbly some good utubes on how to do it.

    my biggest hurdle was trying to fix  a friction bolt to keep the engine from  flopping around.  Also  had a busted  choke spring so I ordered some piano wire and made one up.

    to bad I don’t have piano with all the left over wire I got. 🙂

    that   nice  9.5 was picked up for $50 cdn   took a week to loosen stuck pistons and  it has been my best investment in oldys.

    to reduce gas $$$    for all day trolling   I switched  in a nice Merc  4hp … that one was  free !  cleaned the carb  polished the point and  cleaned the lower gc of dirt to open up the water drain hole.  That little  4hp purrs all day  and sips gas.
