quote Jerry Ahrens:
I just cleaned and serviced a 15 OMC carburetor yesterday. It was the one with the stamped tin float bowl… seems like that is a pretty reliable carburetor. I think that motor is a 1979 (missing serial/model tag) just like the one I grew up running. I’ll swear that’s the best motor my dad ever had. We never had a problem with it. Those little low profile motors sure went through a lot of changes over the years.
Yeah, 77-85 were the best years for sure….Rugged and reliable powerheads and gearcases….Too bad, OMC/BRP loves to put ridiculous prices on the cheap plastic/rubber stuff that always breaks/wears out…
