My maintenance/repair bills total $1,115 so far (that's 40% of what I
paid for the motor). The warranty has covered nothing so far.

I wish they had. I think I could keep one of those running.

The Scotts were notorious for deciding completely on their own when they
wanted to run.

By the time McCulloch came into the picture, you couldn't keep a new
outboard running. They had to age - your position today that you "think
you could keep one of those running" probably would ring true. The ones
that are left today probably run better now than they ever did new.

A stark departure for a company that made superior chain saws in the 50's
& 60's.

A co worker in about 1963 used a McCulloch engine in a belly tanker to set a
land speed record for under 66 CID class at bonnieville. But you only had
to get it running for a short time. 2 times a day.
