My First Tune Up on the Aqua Flyer | |||||||||||||||||||||||
In the last 10 years I have restored many 50's and 60's Johnson, Evinrude, Merc and Chris Craft outboards, back to new condition. Restoring motors started as a favor for family and friends and developed into a very busy business.
Clients from all over North America want that "boyhood treasure" that Dad or Grandpa had, restored back to perfect condition;or they need "that exact right outboard" to put on that newly restored boat; or to add an outboard to that "awesome outboard collection". Some clients have the motor in their possession or I provide the motor out of my inventory, or I source the motor if I don't have it. Click "Motors Available" to see what I currently have. One might be perfect for you!! I have a fully equipped shop, including a paint booth, and I do all the work myself. |

Notice the tool I have selected for the Tune Up! | |||||||||||||||||||||||
Check out the Process below |

Restoration Process | |||||||||||||||||||||||
The motor is completely disassembled | |||||||||||||||||||||||
The engine is inspected for any internal damage and parts are replaced if necessary. The cylinders are honed, new rings are installed and all new gaskets and seals are installed. I use only OMC parts, as they fit properly. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
The lower unit is disassembled, inspected, parts replaced if necessary, and all new seals are installed. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
The motor is sanded or bead blasted and primed with self etching primer. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
Parts are then painted with gasoline proof Alkyd Enamel in the exact original colour | |||||||||||||||||||||||
Apply the decals and it's complete and ready to ship to you. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
I ship restored motors all over North America in plywood crates that I make myself to fit each specific motor. See picture to the left of a recent shipment. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
