Restoring a outboard for a friend & found this part beyond repair & not available so I did what any HOBBY MACHINIST would do. MAKE ONE.

Had several of these mid 60s 9.5 Johnsons & Evinrudes over the years. Do you know why they were rated at 9.5 HP & not 10? In many states, you didn't have to register a boat if the motor was less than 10 HP.

These motors were the same size as the 15 HP, their RPM was just throttled down.
