[QUOTE="He Reigns, post: 351890, member: 14103"] So I got the donor boat last night. It ends up being a 1978 55 hp evinrude. The shifting cable was broke. So I though I had it made, I was wrong. No matter what I tried the lower unit was stuck in gear. I dropped the lower unit and start disassembly to run into this. Top bearing is toast, no oil in the unit at all. I guess I will tear it apart and see how much damage was done and make a decision if it is worth it to fix it. Right now would be a good time to find a jet pump to put on this motor!!! Beside that the top end looks good. [/QUOTE]
