[QUOTE="MrSimon, post: 260156, member: 5461"] I got this motor as a package deal very cheap. I have no idea if it runs or not, and its looks pretty rough on the outside. Under the cover doesn't look too bad. I'd like to fix it up. As a learning experience really. I figure its time I learn how to work in these things. So I figure I want to go over everything whether it needs it or not. I don't mind putting some money into this motor. I know some basis stuff to do, but what else should I add to my list. Remember, this is about learning - and hopefully I'll end up with a nice running motor. Water pump Clean carb - using the re-build kit New plugs Clean fuel pump New fuel filter New lower unit oil What else?
