Ok! Thats awesome! Too bad they sell it in 5' sections. I love that the listing says "select how many sections you need". Who needs multiple 5' sections for an old glasyron or larson???

Ok next... i need the black rubber rub rail insert.

Ready..... go!

Rub rail and windshield hinge ordered.  New seat bases built. Hardware going back on.... so close!

Well... having some issues.... got it to crank quite a bit between yesterday and today. Even replaced the fuel lines, added new fuel and got it to fire off a little.  Then, started having issues. It seems that the starter or solenoid might be going.

Battery is over 13v. Bought it new at napa last week.

Intermittent clicking, varied spinning speeds. Now, nothing... just clicking when i turn the key.

Assuming I could use a new starter and solenoid.

They dont seem too expensive. Less than $100 for the pair.

Found them on amazon, but qorried about proper part numbers.

Help please!

Jim Sellner, Jerry Sellner, and Don Larkin know 3 cylinder OMC's. I would start with Jim Sellner, he rebuilds them.
