“Also drift key on crank looks like its installed angled , is this normal ?”
A service bulletin from ’71 says it should be parallel, but it doesn’t mention the 10 horse. Is that an oversight or is there some reason the 10 was excluded? Could it possibly have something to do with the spring arrangement below the cam and above the carbon seal? Because that’s the only thing I see different from the other motors listed. I don’t know, maybe others have insight into this.
SteveD; interesting Service Bulletin. Do you have a collection of them? I search for them when I have time….never seem to come across very many. Do you have others?
