We had both a 7.5 and 9.8. As a kid, I used to take the 9.8 and leave the 7.5 for my dad. haha. Even just the sound of this running brings back some very fond memories. Thanks for posting. :)
Thunderbolt 110 are closer to 12 horsepower. In 1984 the regulations changed for Dyno testing outboard motors, because some of the manufacturers were under-rating their engines to beat the competition
Ive been running this motor with just gas im such an idiot. thank god i found this video before i did some damage..... 50:1 i see in one of your comments. THANK YOU-
What blade prop do you have on? I have the exact same motor and am only getting 13.5 mph, if I convert kt correctly you are around 19 mph. Anything else you have done to achieve the higher speeds?
It's even worse this year for me, past weekend I was only getting 11 MPH. I have to find the rpm range of this motor, I bought a tach for it. I'm half wondering if it just needs to be tuned properly. Or the motor is just getting old.
Nice I dug out my old long leg non electric start, wish i could find the parts at a reasonable price! I'll be using it on a quicksilver 3.2m inflatable.
@@Bigtime_mcalpine I bought mine with a weird connector sticking out in the front of it above the choke, I never realized that could be the starter plug. Good to know hehe

Oh my…how long did you run it for without oil?
@@Bigtime_mcalpine two 5 to 6 hours fishing sessions. Engine on and off. Lmao
@@TheVinDicarlowow. That’s a dry ass motor. What a tank
Hello, what is the maximum speed of this engine? Regards

I’m only getting 13 mph too, that’s with 2 batteries, anchor, fuel tank, and light tackle

What is the black and red hose sticking out? I’m trying to rebuild mine and don’t know what I’m missing lol.
Those are the battery cables for the electric start
Hello, what kind of mixture do you make for your engine? What fuel connection do you have that goes into the engine? Regards
50:1 will do it. As for connector, just the usual strange looking mercury connector from 80/90’s motors
Ugh i got mine and its a beauty
What is the maximum speed of your engine?
By any chance so you know the part number for the carb gaskets?
I don’t but you may be able to find on marineengine.com
I have a 102cc meant for a sail boat manual says 4 hp is there any way to get more out of the 102cc 2 stroke
Doubt it.
Nitromethane...

My ‘82 110 thunderbolt on a 12ft v-hull Klamath will do 34kph, no idea what that is in nots but its got plenty of power for a 9.8
Agreed. 16kts = 30kph so that’s close and more than fast enough for a little tin boat.
wait this motor has a starter ?? i'm gonna check that out on mine
There is an optional e start package that you can get for this motor.

@@Bigtime_mcalpine do you possibly have a link to one??? Or was it when purchasing original motor?
@@BrandonWilson-sh1bp to a starter, you mean?
@@Bigtime_mcalpine yes to make it electric start. Do u gotta get a flywheel too?
