  • Shot's friend Jeff is back, this time he found an old air-cooled 5 HP outboard in the back yard of another friend, Levi. Levi bought the boat and switched it to a trolling motor due to lakes in his area not allowing gas motors. The motor has been sitting for years and is full of water!!! Will it run?

    Just found one of these on marketplace. Love Briggs and Stratton. Have decades of experience with them.

      @@shotslife I've got a 22' with Mercruiser that I'm just getting too damned old to work on. Kids are just about to move out. Time to simplify. I've picked many nests out of B&S engines and they fire off like they were parked yesterday.

    Great video, used it as a guide after buying one of these same outboards recently off Marketplace. Did the usual maintenance, oil change, new NGK spark plug upgrade, replaced the hoses and cleaned the carb, runs like a champ, and uses minimal fuel on my 12 foot Sun Dolphin Pro 120. Great job !, Was surprised at the amount of water that came out of that engine without it locking it up. Impressive

    The green lines attached to the carb, are those just vent tubes? I didn’t see you hook them to anything in the video. I just got one of these free and that is missing just wanted to see if I need them

    I have never seen an outboard with an air filter. Don't see much dust out on the water so they generally don't design them with an air filter. But then even though I have been around the water for many decades I have never seen a Briggs outboard either. At least not of recent vintage, I have seen one or two from the thirties I do believe. Those were in collections.

      Yeah it was an interesting little motor.. really cheap made for a little fishing boat for small water.

    Dude... When pressure washing be mindful off what's on the other side... Looks like you soaked your tool table. 😂
    Tip for viewers : A L-O-T of boat motors that won't start have simply jumped timing. Simple fix, pull off the fly wheel and realign it with a new shear pin.
    Really liking your videos!
    Keep em coming!

    Oh wait.. That's one of those...
    I call them MOWER MOTORS.
    Air cooled with a boat lower unit
    Mongomery wards used to sell those. I had a 7Hp one.

    Any idea how to adjust the lower unit linkage ? Mine won’t shift out of foward unless I drop the lower it’s like the rod is two long for neutral and reverse??

    FYI tell us what power washer you are using and your opinion on it.
    Someone might see it and sponsor you.

      Shots Life oh that’s cool then. I didn’t know that they made air cooled guess if it’s a smaller engine it wouldn’t need water to cool it.
