The motor comes with a decent tank, have yet to see it in person. Thanks Mumbles for posting the photo.
So your guys experienced opinion problem with the 1956 15hp year is a bad lower crank seal. Hard to change,a complete teardown necessary? Seals are availiable ?
A definate bargaining chip on the price for sure. I can show this thread topic to the seller. Will do a comp test when I see it. Do all the 1959 have the square boxy looking cowlings,or was that Evinrude only? Bottom line,my friend likes the looks of this style motor for the 1952 boat. We have lots of time on our side to find the right one.
Ok ,new replies just now so the seal is not a huge deal, will change regardless,gotta check it. . Yes the photo is the exact motor.
Thanks guys, Jim PSB
