That's a beauty! Hope she frees up OK and the rings aren't stuck so you don't have to pull it apart! Can't wait to hear it purr. OMC would still be here today if engines like this one could be built today
First thing I asked the guy do you have the badge,LOLLL! Was a friends motor didnt know anything about its history. Just wanted it gone along with another unseized 5.5 Johnson he sold for $5. He owned a beautiful wooden Egg Harbor boat that he showed me at a marina where I met him to get teh motor. Anyhoo stay tuned !!!!
Its usually a 30% chance of success on unlocking these things up for me. Unfortunately this one failed,LMAO! Its all apart now doing my bring back to life thing,LOL!. I really like challenges you know me by now,HA! This motor was really locked solid two areas...........Stay Tuned..
You know me Chris Im a sucker for a good deal! Yeah 1958 was last year of metal covers and that beautiful script font brand lettering was one year only too ...Stay tuned this motor will run again I hope,HA!
nice video! gott up your audio my man! I would love to find a 10/18hp one of these in a long shaft for my boat!! 5 bucks? people around me want 200 for a siezed motor lol
Yeah my phone is junk only sound on one side mostly Im getting a new one next week. I also had a portable fan running too on me yesterday outside humidity & heat was brutal so it picked up wind noise hence the music to hide it somewhat and also there is weird noises here and there. What happened to your channel no more videos 2-3 a year thats it with over 2,000 subs,LOLLL??????
@@BlackoutBilll21 I know it sure does that darn editing. This 18 is totally apart now lower carbon seal cracked water ingestion. O ring inside it was like a rock too, Almost had to use my hydraulic press to get #2 piston out but I finally whacked it by hand with my aluminum tombstone tool,Ha!. She will run again, I have done much worse & cylinders honed up nice. Hey stay Tuned! Nice to hear from you Bill....Glenn
