Reply To: new to aomci member, how to change coils points and condenser in classic omc

[Michael Wilson]

Thanks guys, and Fleetwin I have zero experience with working on these classics. the timing part is the part I really am going to need to learn, gonna order the timing tool. well from what I heard you might as well reseal the gearcase when you do a tune up on these old motors. and I also have a Buccaneer 12 horse motor I need to do a tune up on too, And it wont go into reverse. want to ask what could make it not go into reverse? these are the 2 motors I plan on getting running first. and who makes the best coils and points for these motors? heard of fitment issues with the Sierra points about the holes needing to be drilled and or tapped out. Thanks and plan on finding a Buccaneer 25 horsepower motor down the road just trying to find one for sale lol.
