Made a lot more progress tonight. I need new LU seals, opened it up today and it started pouring water. All that's left is to wire and gas her up.

My phone died before we got the muffler and handle mounted. More pics tomorrow.

Looking good!

Quick question: what is the date code on that motor?

Everything is working and finished. Wiring took longer than anticipated today so we didn't get to run it just yet. Probably won't be able to until Sunday. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1407458852.623941.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1407458865.857114.jpg

Last night I ran it for a little while and played with throttle varying speeds and rpms. On full throttle it was pushing 4400-4500 RPMS, is this normal? I'm not sure what the speed was.

I just noticed this is a gen2 LU. I was thinking it was a g3. What size boat are you running?

Are you sure you have the stock prop for the 36 powerhead? RPM's are high for a gen2 lower unit. Unless you are just trimmed a little too high.

It should have been the 27 prop but I'm not really sure which one the guy I bought it from had on there before.

I'm gonna swap the prop one day this week and see what happens I guess.

The one in the last pic you posted mounted to the boat looks like the 27 prop.

The LU he has laying on the ground is the gen2. The gen1 had 4 bolts that connected the shaft housing to the knuckle. But yes, the original 04 was the gen1
