Re: New guy needs help with 1945 Gale 3hp

Shoot, no problem. There are about a zillion (well almost) of those things out there, still running. 1st, there is no such thing as a carb kit for it. You have to order, or make, your own parts. Some people reseal the old cork float, or if it is beyond hope, make a new one. Personally, I modify a Sierra Marine 18-7208 (Mercury) float. A couple of guys here make the water pump impeller, properly called a rotor.

I’ll post a parts list as soon as I get it loaded.
