Reply To: 1953 Mercury KG7

Hopefully you can heat and beat the reed block into alignment,

If not, fear not, it was built by mere mortals and a mere mortal can
fix it,

KE7,KF7, KG7 and KG4 series are refined and enhanced versions of the KE7. Junk KE7 powerheads are
available and reasonable so you
can paractice and learn. Nothing like hand on experience,

1965 and prior Mercury Service Manuals are available used and
Mercury Parts Manual for your model are available reasonable ,
If you need parts, you need part number and name. Much can be learned from illustrated parts manual,.
New upper and lower crankshaft seals are long overdue.
Good Luck
