" Hi, I have a Montgomery Ward

" Hi, I have a Montgomery Ward, 15 hp boat motor. We broke the plastic "dogs" under the rope pull housing. Are there parts available to replace these? We can still crank with the pulley housing off. Just have to wrap a rope around the top. The serial numbers and such are:

GG8971A
75X682347

I can supply manuals for it if you need them.

You could try a local Johnson/Evinrude/OMC dealer, the Montgomery Ward / Gale motor was part of the OMC family. You would be best to find one that is accustom to dealing with older motors.

You could also check the listings of outboard parts suppliers in our directory. Some of them mention that they specialize in antique and older motors.

Regards,
Andrew"
