You’re going to have to help me out here: How do you turn that lower unit around (or the upper unit, possibly) so that the motor goes forward?

[dmbono]

good deal- someone should snap it up at that price

Gas tank faces forward on them.

A "Boathouse Repair" is one thats done without having tools or the skills to do it properly.

Damn! Really!?!?!?!?!?!?!

That’s kind of neat. Is it difficult to pull the starter rope over the gas tank?

That IS a good price for that motor. Somebody out that way should snag it. A unique motor!

I did notice the forward facing tank, but your questions made me look at it more and wonder, where is the throttle on these? The Handle? And is that a kill button on the end of the handle? Interesting. I am going to look on youtube and see if there are any videos, I will post em if I find them. They are unique.

[eviltwin]

it is a kill button. Could not locate a video. I think throttle lever is on top between rope sheave and tank.

Kinda odd looking. It has a look only a new owner could love. Is it considered a long shaft?
