i have a 1950 5hp sea king went through the carb and just about everything else minus the cylinders seems to hav no spark...not sure how to go about disassmbling and fixing
Did you check the points and condenser? Also take a look at the two mag coils. If they are cracked...replace them. Lastly what shape are the plug wires in?
Where is the water pump located?? I took 4 bolts out of the bottom and there was oil and a shaft but no impeller.
