Maintenance for Mercury Kiekhaefer Rocket 7.5 H.P. (1940's)
Someone recently gave me a Mercury Kiekhaefer outboard motor that is
rated at 7.5 horsepower. It's been sitting about a year but the guy said that it definitely runs. I don't know much about boat motors at all and I was wondering if there are any steps I should take before firing this thing up. All I know is that it needs to be in water!! From what I have researched, the motor is from the late 40's and it looks to be in good shape. If someone has any info they think I should know before attempting to start this motor I would sure like to hear it. Let me know if you need me to find out anything more about the motor. Thanks in advance josh |
