HELP

[codfather]

I'm hoping someone maybe able to steer me in the right direction. The drive shaft on my 25hp merc broke on the long weekend.Luckily I have a spare motor for parts and was able to rebuild it.

As the rebuild went pretty good, this has me interested on rebuilding the old motor.However finding parts has not been easy.Does anybody know where one can find parts other than a marina.They are so expensive.The one up north wanted 850.00 to repair.It only took me about 2 hours.

 

Thanks in advance

Try your local NAPA/UAP auto parts store. Ask to see their marine parts catalogue.

If they don't have one let me know & I should be able to give you some part #'s.

My local store gave me their recently outdated catalogue. Most #'s don't change.

Thanks Woodsman,I never knew that they carried outboard parts.There's a NAPA right by my workplace.I'll check into it and also let you know how I make out.

 

Thanks again Woodsman

Most stores won't carry parts in stock. They can order them in.

If they have to come out of the US warehouse you can expect up to 3 weeks delivery time.

What year is your 25 Merc?
