The thing you have to remember about old outboards is that alot of the parts you need to keep them running can't be found nowdays.... my uncle is a master of old school outboards, he's retired and his hobby is to buy old boats for next to nothing and fix them up and sell them..... old outboards are not easy to work on unless you know what you're doing, my uncle has bought lots of 'dead' outboards and fixed them up...... but it depends on the parts that can be found. funny thing is that lots of times people that think they know what they're doing get the idea that they can fix outboards and end up screwing them up ..... I know because I have seen him take a piece of shit outboard that has been sitting for years and turn it into a sweet running engine
