Quicksilver 19P stainiless steel prop

This by itself was worth $1. a beautilful prop to be swining from this motor. Bad part is that it may be overpropped... espically for sking. Sad, I know.

 

Port view of motor

A look on the inside.

 

Port view of motor

Close up of distributor, idle stop, throttle stop and spark advance setting. Many ground wires have already been replaced and reattched to their respective locations. Also 3 carbs serving two cylinders each.

 

Starboard side of motor

View of the used starter that I bought on ebay for $49 shipped. Stator wires, rectifier and other componets have been repaired and wired correctly.

 

View of the battery compartment

This is a good view of the battery compartment and tilt/trim hydraulic pump. This was filled with wires and was a total mess. And the tilt/trim was extreemly low in fluid that caused many problems with raising the motor. Fluid replaced and works better than ever.
