    What outboard do I have?

    I bought this from a guy in Quitman, TX. The cowling says GT 150 but from what I read here the cowling and the engine don't match. It is a 6 cylinder with 3 carbs. M/N J150STLCD, not a typo.

    I took the engine back to the lake and as it was running I saw many bubbles from the mating area of the lower unit. There was no gasket and when I search the parts catalog I see no gasket.

    72 18 HP 18202 not peeing

    I replaced the impeller and associated parts with a kit. I am getting water flow but the engine does not pee. I found that it no thermostat so I put a new one in. The engine still does not pee. With the thermostat housing off the water from the main passage shoots up about 4 inches. Does that...

    As long as you disconnected the battery before changing parts, I would say no.

    L & L Vintage Outboard Parts has been extremely helpful to me. Lance spent quite a bit of time finding parts and educating me. I will report back after I receive the parts and begin installation.
