Mercury Outboard wreckers or Second hand suppliers

Where are you? There used to be an outboard wrecker in Yatala.

Pickles,
Last year, I wanted to do up our Aux. Motor and found that the shaft that drives the water pump impeller was worn (rusty) and would turn the impeller, but leaked oil into the water. 2 repairs shops told me to dump the motor, a third after being told that the motor had the top done up some years earlier and the motor had done little work since, suggested that I get the shaft chrome plated which I did and for around $150, I now have a good as new motor.

Without sounding to negative the only time i seen those redbands they were broken down at the boat ramp.
If youve got the dough get something later.
Like doing up a 70s car, always breaking down or something to fix.
Cheers

I have got a forward control box & cables if you need it.

I think you will find the red band motors go back to the sixties. I brought a blue band 1n 74 and they superceded the red band. The blue band was a great motor.
Cheers Pete

you could give these guys a ring
