Sears (Scott?) 14 hp

[Tom Alexander]

Discovered an old white outboard while cleaning out a cabin the other day. Wondering where to go to find out how to bring it back to life. It is branded ‘Sears’ and has the number 14 on it. Can anybody point me me in the right direction? Thanks. Tom Alexander

Pictures or a more specific description of how old it generally is based on the styling would be helpful.

Probably a McCulloch Built Motor.

Tom;  many of us are familiar with the motor you have.  As stated above;  it is likely to have been made by Scott/McCulloch.  One way to know is to post the ID number that should be on the motor,  see if it has a 574 prefix.  574.xxxxx

They are very good runners;  certainly one of the better motors made for Sears.  Let’s get more information from you so things will move along and get you on the lake!

We called them Mac motors. McCulloch motors were built here in Tucson Arizona moons ago. Only back then we used air cooled Mac motors on our go carts & mini bikes, They would FLY!! They had weird diaphram type carbs
You have a well built USA motor!!
