It's just a little 25HP Tohatsu pull start. One of the bevel gears is chipped. The guy I just bought the boat from literally handed me a box with the lower unit parts and the lower gear case. I'm hoping to get the gear fixed and then it's essentially a free motor for me.


If the motor is not to old, do it youself. Really not that hard. Google is you friend.

do not attempt to rebuild a lower unit yourself. There's three different pressed on parts in there and proper lash must be set with a dial indicator or else the gears won't mesh properly. frick,even I won't frick with a lower unit after watching Ray rebuild mine. He's on Florida Blvd. In Denham.

Btw,have you tried pouring in some Seafoam yet.to see if it fixes your lower unit?
