Oh, the memories! I purchased one of those brand new in the 1980's for my kids to push a 12' aluminium (aluminum) dinghy around on the harbour (harbor) :). They had so much fun - the big thing to remember was to open the air vent on the fuel cap - or you would stop unexpectedly. Starting it was fun - as you pointed out - it is a direct drive so when it started you were underway. The kids soon learnt to push off from the beach, bow first, hop aboard and start her up.
I have had a plastic deck Honda HRX lawn mower since 2006. It's NEVER failed me. I noticed last year it'd idle but hunt so this spring I took the carb off, sprayed it out, and reassembled. Good as new! I paid 800 bucks for it in 2006 (not cheap) and I remember asking the guy at the Honda dealer (no big box store for me) if he thought it'd last me 10+ years. lol Dumb question!
yup harmony 215. $115 second hand store. $10 carb replacement and governor spring adjustment. back wheels are kind of binding at the moment. probably just need fresh lube.
Great video again bud. We in the UK call them both split pins and cotter pins. Loved the makeshift pond, but I think you dribble over your floor a bit haha. A few of the counties hear, have designated the their lakes combustible fuel free, so electric motors only. Oh and I was always taught that if it's combustion it's an engine, if it electric it's a motor lol.
He certainly is good at inspiring confidence and increasing competence. I have absolutely been able to do things that I would not have even tried without my education at Mustie University.
Some of the various small engine repair manuals have diagrams showing how to tie a knot for the starter handles. The way you did it results in too small a knot that will eventually just pull through the handle. Wish I could describe it but, a diagram is worth a thousand words. Love your videos. Please keep making them.
found a 1998 yamaha 2hp two stroke for $20 at a yardsale last weekend. it was covered in dust but after a clean up and cleaning the carb she fired up and looks great. its so satisfying.
Man I want to go there. How are you guys holding up with all the anti-gun crap shoved down your throat? Were the hunters really supporting the confiscation? They will be coming for your shotties next.
@@ocavant Shit is hitting the fan. A crim walked into a police station up nth in Parmerston Nth and walked out with 14 or 15 handed in firearms lol. Plus taxpayers are going to be coughing up with buy back for years & years.. Millions & Millions. Alot of hunters are not happy at all but if your a proper hunter/ stalker you only need one shot. Pest cullers should be able to have large mags. Only rim fire .22 are allowed 10 shot mags. 5 shot mag in 12 gauge etc. Bed here if you need one...
Re: end knots... figure 8 knots work better than just an overhand. I have A) had overhand knots come out on their own. B) had overhand knots jam and be hard to remove. A figure 8 doesn't seem to self loosen, yet is still undoable.
Doin the same, but i think i'll have to do SOMETHING productive....later. My brother just teted me ..that he's at a VW show and so is Mustie.... weather looks fine in the ME/NH area
I just bought one of these today.. Tried in the back yard just to see how it works. Started in the first try. Looks pretty strong and sturdy. Cannot wait to go to a lake and have fun with it!
for somebody as old as Mustie 1 is (55), he stills gets her done...the dog wash was neat gots to show some love to your #1 buddy, thanks for making my Sunday morning a Mustie 1ride along...i know the big show is comin, yes
I imagine there's stuff for sale that he's applied his magic to. I bet most of it goes to the locals though which is as it should be, and the way most anyone else in his position would do.
@@joewoodchuck3824 He puts it up for sale at the end of his driveway. The street in front of his house has such high traffic I imagine he has no problem selling his items.
Wow - 30 bucks, what a score. I bet if they used it as a dingy motor on a sail boat its one that can lay on its side (yep, confirmed by the extensions on the plastic opposite the handle). We had to have that so it could lay in the lazerette inside the boat. This makes it desirable to sailing folks. Its hard to find these anymore in a 4 stroke. I paid 450 for one that needed a carb rebuild.
Hey Mustie as a kite boarder I get plenty of unwanted knots in my lines which weaken them The trick for releasing a very tight knot is to place the line on a hard turface and hit the knot lightly with a hammer turning the knot until it loosens. Works like a charm just like your honda!
You lucky dog, that's when they had the better carbs, and I've been looking for one of those. Have come across ones slightly larger around here..with people who want like $1200 for them, but I need a small one like that for my small duck boat, had been running it w/a 1958 Chrysler mtr.,which runs like a top, but a friend knocked a pole digger onto it and it broke the fuel cap,have yet to find a replacement.Would have replaced that fuel line though ;) Lil says she takes a bath at the cabin every yr...and that's good enough! Would have bought that boat, even if it's the last thing I need to add another around here!
When you retire I want your spot! Love these videos. I go through life the same way. Looking at every heap on the curbside thinking "I bet I could get that to fire up again" LOL!
I feel at home in your workshop. Generally I knew where everything was. Others thought it may be the town tip. Never threw anything away as it just may come in one day, usually it did.
Note here from across the pond here in old England. Keep up the good work. Love watching your vids and have learnt some good stuff. Pulled out my old Norton Villiers Minigen (1973 ish) and pulled it apart and cleaned it and replaced a few parts. All running now and looking for next project to be getting on with. Thanks..
Yay! Split pin! The old-world comment section education is paying off! We'll have you mixing and matching inches, millimetres, AF, Whitworth and BSF before you know it, and nothing will quite fit right ever again! ;-)
@@dantheman7793 but Wernher von Braun was German :-p All ribbing aside, I'm touched how found you are of the imperial system you took with you from Britain ;-)
I enjoyed the chuckle when Mustie went back and forth in the video; he's right that this machine is both. Engine plus gearbox, prop, and water pump becomes outboard boat motor.
Your videos are inspiring. Getting ready to restore a 1967 14' Starcraft boat from the trailer up with dual outboards. Binge watching all of your outboard motor rebuilds right now! keep up the amazing work!
Hey guy I really enjoy your videos! Just one small comment from me. When you tied the pull handle back on there after reinstalling the cover. You tied a knot in that cord. Originally I'm pretty sure there was another metal pin tied inside the knot. This would allow extra support for the pull handle itself. Maybe someone already mentioned this below I didn't read all the comments. Keep up the good work and keep the videos coming for us old gear heads!!
I had the same problem changing oil in my air compressor yesterday! Those sight glasses are about worthless! Luckily, I have the manual for my compressor. I thought it took 20 oz. but it only takes 16 oz. That extra 4 oz. overflowed it. I've never owned any foreign cars, but, I do have 2 Honda motorcycles as well as a Honda powered Husqvarna rear tine tiller and I love them all!
Hey guy, I'd change that water pump impeller out. If they sit for more than 2 years, the impeller takes on the shape of the pump in the position their stopped in, and as you know it gets smaller and bigger in pump housing. Pump impeller stays in that shape, and usually chunks out in short order after being put back in service. Just trying to save you from frying motor. Honda can tell you the year with serial number, I'm guessing late 90s to early 2000s. I used to be service mgr. for a Nissan, OMC Johnson, Force dealership, and if that don't impress ya, we were also cruise and carry, and eska dealers too.
About 10 years ago we were fishing in the GWN, and one of the guys with us went to pull anchor and it was real hard pulling up. well it took 3 of us to pull it out and there was a 12 foot boat attached to it. On the back end was a small Honda like that one. We pulled it on shore dumped the water out of the boat and it floated. So we pulled the whole thing back to the lodge that was painted on the side of the boat. The lodge owner said that boat had gone missing a bunch of years before, and he turned it in to the ins company. Said you want it take it,, we brought it back to the lower 48, the boat was in good shape,, and as far as I know as I know after tear down cleaning it is still running today,, Honda motors are damn near bullett proof
Whilst holding the knot with your non-dominant hand (firmly between thumb and index), twist the end wire a few turns to reduce the diameter (as you twist), then push towards the knot. They come undone. It works with rope, works with plastic bags etc.
that is a early 2hp Honda, that basic engine was/ has been in production for a long time, they just changed stickers at first and then covers, but the insides remain the same.
man that thing runs smooth, the bench doesnt even shake in a vise clamp, if that thing was a mercury in 1988 the test bench would be jumping off the floor.
Never nothing wrong with overfilling a unknown OB motor. Will get a nice flush,,then drain and inspect. The "tightness" can also be the bottom end. A rubber tipped?? water pump impeller there somewere usually. Those rot apart after sitting and turn to dust when they are cranked to life again. (if the motor turns over,,the WP impeller does also,,when water cooled). damn impellers are the same price as the find. Carb has had alcohol gas thru it sometime in its life.. The white crusties inside have to go or no play well on the average. Neat find. Congrats.
well that was a deal-- I worked on those for a boat rental and they were both air and water cooled- as were many of the "lawnmower" outboards from tecumseh and clinton. Seems I remember the water pump to be an early Mercury water pump, but with a different drive pin/key. The one we had - had a centrifugal clutch and the water pump only enguaged when the prop turned.
With outboards...ALWAYS apply full choke & attempt to refire after the float bowl runs dry. Far easier than finding out the hard way that there was more fuel left in the bowl than you thought.
True that!! Gotta love Honda motors (ahem... Engines lol) Nice work... every little bit of love helps! Nice work! Here in Sydney... That'll be $999 thanks at least!!! I want your life... this 12 hr shift stuff is killing my soul!! I'd love to have the time to tinker with yard sale finds... damn.... not a jealous person but you really are living my dream... keep em coming mate!! Love all your vids!
Careful what you wish for!?😂 Last weekend, I pulled a mouse nest out of a 10 horse Briggs powered generator. Motor was not seized internally, but was stuck from mouse piss on the coil and flywheel. The coil laminates were so rusty, I had to scrape the crusty rust from between them, cause of the swelling and epoxy them back together. It actually ran good.
I want to get an old Johnson outboard and make a mailbox out of it. I'm gonna custom paint, chrome and etch it. When you come to my neighborhood you be able to hear,,,,,,,'That guy over there [pointing to my yard] Has the Nicest JOHNSON we ever saw!!!'
Had to pause it, when you said "some people think I still act like a child". Sounds like you have a kid with a person you're no longer with. 🤣(sounded eerily familiar, is all 🤣)
Still pertinent! I noticed that the water was not coming out of the two holes on the rear of the shaft. I got mine running today and it worked fine for a while then the water pump seemed to quit. Darn.
Running a little Seafoam thru the carb to clean it wouldn't hurt it. Honda's are pretty bullet proof. Can't wait to see the next patient for Dr. Mustie1.
I'm surprised the water bucket didn't get knocked over, or at least shake around more than it did; for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. I just got a mint shape 1964 Evinrude 9.5 Sportwin running today, it had bad coils, the glass insulators on them were all shattered, the guts in them seem to have expanded and broke the glass somehow.
It's worth changing the water pump impeller even though it's pumping now. If the old fins break off they can plug things up in a hurry. Something for the new owner to do.
All that (the bucket of water), to get rid of the spider! hehe Should consider getting like a 10-gal Brute trash can, then you can have the water-in/water-out using the same container.
Always enjoy your videos. Did you notice the spelling of "Moter" on the faceplate??...Love your dog, Lilly. There's something very special about an old dog.
great video. however, to help, water is heavier than oil. gasoline is an oil product. In a carb with water in it the water is always in the bottom as I remember. Great work my friend.
I'm digging that boat too, it should come home with you for sure! I think the diesel would be too slow turning for it though unless you managed to hook up a gearbox that increases the output speed 2X
My Son's and I love your channel! Congratulations on your new shop. It was very much earned. BTW Please give those poor Klipsch KG4"s a home up a little higher. You have a bunch of vintage audiophiles gasping! lol Best Wishes to you!
Cut a notch in pull string hi start hole of cover so the pull start handle will go through it. Maybe a smaller pull string handle from the stash, too. Otherwise, great deal and work on a sweet little outboard.
Oh, the memories! I purchased one of those brand new in the 1980's for my kids to push a 12' aluminium (aluminum) dinghy around on the harbour (harbor) :).

Who else was craning their neck trying to get a better look down the oil hole?
Too funny when you overfilled the oil.

I really like the idea of putting that Kubota engine in that aluminum boat! Boat does have very nice lines. :)
Oh I like that idea.
Mustie's tinkering is very therapeutic to watch!

Amazing how a few curves really improved the looks of that boat.
milky gear oil means water for sure. usually fishing line gets behind prop, violates that seal.
Came to say that lol

Water sinks in oil. Just crack the bottom plug to check for water. Nice find!
We lived on a sailboat for a long time. The problem we had with the outboards was the non return valve in the carb. The rubber always perished.

Water impeller needs changing.
Not if he sells it first.

Changing impeller often, marine industry scam, not necessary

Put some water in the boat to see if it leaks!!Great job on thy Honda motor.Remind me when i was working on them.

It's worth changing the water pump impeller even though it's pumping now. If the old fins break off they can plug things up in a hurry. Something for the new owner to do.

Should consider getting like a 10-gal Brute trash can, then you can have the water-in/water-out using the same container.
I too just got a 20 dollar outboard motor from a yard sale. It was in Massachusetts. It's a 2 horsepower sea king
Always enjoy your videos. Did you notice the spelling of "Moter" on the faceplate??...Love your dog, Lilly. There's something very special about an old dog.
great video. however, to help, water is heavier than oil. gasoline is an oil product. In a carb with water in it the water is always in the bottom as I remember. Great work my friend.
I'm digging that boat too, it should come home with you for sure! I think the diesel would be too slow turning for it though unless you managed to hook up a gearbox that increases the output speed 2X
My Son's and I love your channel! Congratulations on your new shop. It was very much earned. BTW Please give those poor Klipsch KG4"s a home up a little higher. You have a bunch of vintage audiophiles gasping! lol Best Wishes to you!
Awww Lilly is a cute girl.. Give her some pets from her biggest fan in Utah!! Take good care of her, Mustie1.
Lazy Sunday, and a Mustie1 video, life is good.......
I believe that 4 stroke is a 3hp but I’m not positive I think the engine is air cooled and the water pisser is to muffle the exhaust .
nice video!. my lab was the same. he would swim all day if you let him, but HATED the bath.
Man , you got that cover clean!. Enjoyed , you sure do luck up on some good finds.
I believe that may be a 2.3 HP I researched outboard motor on amazon and found one that looked similar. Love your videos!
oil over water, fill lower unit either way, drain and check Before winter and refill. Lowers tend to cool and suck water in if seal is bad.
First time I’ve heard you correctly call it a split in 😃
Good job Mustie1 wasn’t sure there would be one this week, with the double header last week. ☕️cheers
Yes put the kubota in that boat . So cool ! Probably worth it weight for 90 bucks.
Cut a notch in pull string hi start hole of cover so the pull start handle will go through it. Maybe a smaller pull string handle from the stash, too. Otherwise, great deal and work on a sweet little outboard.
