I just purchased a Clinton outboard. It runs great but the carb is leaking a bit and I would like to rebuild it.
I bought it from the original owner's son who didn't have any information on it. He said that it was a 5HP, 4 stroke, air cooled engine from the 50's.
I was looking around on the internet and can't find the model number listed anywhere as a Clinton outboard motor.
Yet it has a clear plate on the engine with Model # (V3100 2137) and Serial # (8127957D).
Can anyone help me figure out what the specs of this motor are and if there is a carb kit for this thing?
The compression on this thing is strong and I don't see any reason why it will not last many more years, but the carb is definitely in need of maintenance.
Thanks for any input.
