"I recently aquired a Wards outboard. Need some general info., i.e. year of manufacture, H.P. (can't read the H.P. on plate) - looks small, a 7-10 horse maybe?
The Model # is VWB 52179B
S/N is 18X 21567
Runs fine in a barrel of water, but I have no prop! Any help? Thanks!"

"Dave,

VWB 52179B is a 7.5HP (at 4750 rpm), 1981 model year, Montgomery Ward made by Chrysler.

The original prop was their part number P477. I don't know the dia or pitch.

You migth be able to get it from a Mercury Marine Dealer since they support Chrysler outboards... but they may claim not to know anything about it.

We can supply a service and parts manual if you need it. The parts manual was published as a Montgomery Wards manual, but the service manual is Chrysler. There wasn't a "Montgomery Wards" service manual.

Order from the Chrysler outboards manual page and put the MW number in the form and mention it in the comments box of the order."
