Re: NEED SOME ADVICE!!! ASAP
There still thousands of these pontoons around and still running great. I believe that is an OMC outdrive. Make sure tilt works good. Some old OMC's tilted the motor instead of the outdrive.
Old outboards of that era were hp based at the powerhead where now at the prop. As far as repairing them I don't know if one would be better over the other
