    FD-11 gear case repair

    Great news on the can oil, the pinion bearing was good. I am familiar with the 932 bronze, turns like a dream. Yes, I could do the job if needed.

I need to test my spark testers. I may also try the old coils they have a different reading from the new ones. 1.8 between...

    New everything still no spark

    I am now stuck with no fire. I have worked on many small motors but not many outboards. I have a 1957 Johnson 18hp FD-11 K . This motor has not run in 30 years. It ran very nice 30 years ago. It has been in a garage all that time. I replaced seals, impeller, fuel lines, rebuilt the pressure...
