anybody ever work on one of these

[joedrum]

seems to be missing air cleaner cartrige

its a 4 cylinder 50hp....first pic shows it a two carb deal

got it to run ...it has a solenoid choke deal ...that works with key ...also has manual pull

did not circulate water ...so now the bottom has to come off and be worked on ... seems starter solenoid is bad im having to jump crossed it to start it...so if any one got something to say on it ...need to know about what year it is ...?

Should be a data plate somewhere with the year and model. It may never have had an air cleaner. My snowblower never did. Most wet lakes aren't dusty.

:smilie_happy: :smilie_happy: good point :hihihi:

Correct on no air cleaner :yes: can't drive it down the dreaded driveway so there is not much chance of dust getting in when you are afloat :yes:
Aren't GWs expensive enough without getting a hole in water to throw money into Joe? :smilie_happy:

Looks like the 50 h.p. mercury I had on the back of my tri-hull.
I do not remember any air cleaner I may still have the shop manual around I will check.

When you replace impeller keep shift lever and lower end in same gear ( please don't ask me how I know) Jerry

Looks Impressive Joe , But......No , I never owned a motor boat in my life. opcorn:

Alls I can tell you Joe is it is definitely an outboard motor, that's about it.
Looks much better condition than any I've had.

Hey Joe, just bolt on a goldwing engine to the outdrive and be done with it.

 

[joedrum]

hmmmm keep ideas coming ...lol.... :builder: :swoon:

 

[Trak]

impeller is quite aways above the horizontal prop shaft,, or where the gears and gear dog are at in the bottom,,, you need a drum joe drum,, ha.. may not need an impeller..

 

[joedrum]

i had the hose hooked up to it too ... nothing coming out return ... i am going to take bottom off and check things out good its all unknown so far ... but progress is good to me

 

[Trak]

I don't see where it says Johnson or Evenrude,, I would start fixing that first! :hihihi:

 

[joedrum]

LOL ...mercury ....found in water dead ... :shock:

 

[slabghost]

HEyhey! I got a nice mercury in my driveway. NOT dead!
