Re: Roys second 102 series build

Cast aluminium is less brittle after annealing. And make sure the pinion bush locating screw is doing it's job properly & the crown wheel thrust washer is in place! Thanks, I am now moving back to what I assume is the correct sized gear box for the 102 series motor? The reason being is the one ...

Re: Roys second 102 series build

Roy why not get 2 4inch sections of drive shaft and weld round rod in between them at whatever lenth you require how about getting all your bitties ship...

Re: Roys second 102 series build

The replies and ideas to what will make a good assembly has seen me get the correct (?) sized gearbox out again, I started with that, then saw that the pinion gear has been removed, postage to one of those should be cost effective, has anyone got one spare for me?

Re: Roys second 102 series build

The gearbox that I have with the bent lower case will seal around the water pump area, I can easily seal the gap aft with some silicone sealant. Note, I am now back looking at the original sized gear box that a 102 motor would use, the reason is there is a suitable five blade prop that will match it...

Re: Roys second 102 series build

Decision time Roy As things stand now, this would be the type of prop you need for your 102 bitsa https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Seagull-Outboard-Motor-Propeller-CPC-1409W/153368671513?hash=item23b57c3519:g:kMAAAOSwImRYjzjK Alternatively you could also revert back to a more conventional 102 gearbox and...

Re: Roys second 102 series build

I have a 46N you can have. Its a bit crusty, is missing the storm cowl and the throttle slide and tickler are stuck so it isn't much, I know. But I have got all the other stuck bits to move (banjo bolt, threads seem good, float chamber cap, cable adjuster). Yours for postage if you want it. Many th...

Re: Roys second 102 series build

Grab it Roy. This would help you finish your project 102 for sure with spares left over for dare i say it another project for the future! There's the carb you're looking for along with the right thumb throttle and a fuel pipe. You never know you might be able to salvage the throttle cable too while...

Re: Roys second 102 series build

The motor and its power leg have now been hung up to rest for a while, I will await the arrival of suitable spare parts to do the additions required to make this a usable Seagull outboard. The gear box lower flange was bent, check the picture, how and why do people do such a thing? I am not happy to...

Re: Roys second 102 series build

My cleaning of what I assume is an older type of engine support, showed that the lower cup to support the drive tube is not quite large enough to accept the tube that I have, was there a smaller diameter tube I wonder?

I have used a black plastic support cup instead.

Re: Roys second 102 series build

Most if not all of the parts In need are on this 102 series, its going to be broken up, I emailed the owner yesterday but this far I have had no reply.


The tank and mount brackets would be more than acceptable as well!

Re: Roys second 102 series build

I guess the engine is as finished as I can get it right now?

The additions made recently have been the old style (?) engine support clamp, I needed a gas flame on it to remove the lower cross bolt and nuts, the bolt is bronze or brass and was bonding by salt big time.
