good to see this one, just on my way to work..got a nice 16" rainbow on Wed. fishing has been real SLOW this year..Got my 35 hp merc done to sell so I can get a Small alumin boat, now to finish the 15 hp force....picked up the screw for the shift shaft.
I have a 1983 Sea King 15 that is kicking my butt. I have rebuilt the carb and fuel pump. New spark plugs. Change the lower unit impeller and oil and just recently cleaned up the points and adjusted them. It starts right up every time but it has a hesitation where the motor will frequently kick side to side. I really enjoy your videos and watch them all the time thinking that some day mine will actually run like yours do:) Any input would be much appreciated. Thanks
Great vid.....how does the stop switch get wired on these engines I just got one and the guy didn't remember how the stop switch was wired......thanks matt
Hello, I just got a Sea King 15 HP. I removed the lower unit and I removed the 6 bolts that secure the power head and support plate to motor leg. I try to lift the power head, but it won't move at all. Could you tell me how to remove it?
I have this same model... Lately it takes a while to start and when it does start it runs very slow even with the throttle opened all the way... Any ideas?
Great video. I have the same motor. Quick question; what carb kit do I need? Mine runs good at wide open throttle but won’t idle. Going to start with a carb. Thanks and love you videos.
you still got this one

Good! let me know when you get it running.
Great job with that motor! It sounds good and strong.
Looks to be a very good runner.

Do you know where i can get a metal prop for that motor
Have the same model and year engine, points are no longer available so it's dead in the water! Any idea of anyone who still sells them?
hi.How much it will cost you a motor????? Thank you
More of Pepper!
I have a 83 Sea king. Is it common for the condensers to go bad on these? Thanks
