Change Impeller Remove Powerhead 1957 7.5 HP Evinrude

[@alanbarlow1525]

Mike is The Man! Not only is he a great mechanic on these old outboards, he is a genuinely nice guy. I met him when I dropped my 1966 Johnson 9 1/2 off to him for gear box seals. He helped me out through messaging when I had a little problem while rebuilding my ignition system myself. Don't know what I would have done without him.

Thank you T. Mike. This very helpful. I asked to about making this video for me about a month ago and my 1957 5.5hp. Thanks again Bruce in CT

Great video your awesome guy on these outboards thanks for all the information you sure.

I was wondering about the power head gasket I didn't see you replace it

[@walkingbird1391]

Thanks for the video, T-Mike. I have a 58 5.5 Evinrude Fisherman, and a 54 Johnson Seahorse 5.5. The Johnson works good, but the Evinrude needs some love. It may be obvious to some, but I did not see you use a gasket on the power-head. Does it not need one? Also, have you ever repaired one of the old 2 line pressure gas tanks? Keep up the good work.

[@michaeljsimon]

The gasket was stuck to the powerhead and o do not repair 2 line gas tanks. Thx

[@jasonarthur1208]

Nice job T-Mike. Question, when you have the powerhead off, would you go ahead and change the powerhead gasket? Thanks again.

[@michaeljsimon]

Not unless it is damaged.

[@nickanderkay7148]

Is there no gasket between the gearcase and the extension tube?

[@aulioacosta]

Good morning T-Mike. Wondering if this is the same for my 1957 7 1/2 hp Johnson? I have replaced impeller on a 1968 6 hp-or wondering if it more like that one? Keep up the great videos and thank you for sharing all of your knowledge to us the people that wanna put the older motors back out on the water some day! Have a good day

[@michaeljsimon]

Yes it will

[@rayjrdibenedetto867]

So it will be the same as the 1968?

[@wesleyboss5763]

Nice video.But I was wondering about the bass gasket between the motor and the lower

[@rayjrdibenedetto867]

@@michaeljsimon Thank you for letting me know. Keep up the videos for all whom watch and wanna learn! Have a good day

[@michaeljsimon]

Gasket was stuck to powerhead

[@scott-dugas]

i have that same moor and mine has a coup spring and a carbon washer on top of the driveshaft where it goes into the power head is that not needed?

[@michaeljsimon]

Yes it is - this one was brought to me without it. Remember the purpose is this video to show the steps involved.

[@RN67POST]

Nice video, I have a Johnson same motor , and looking forward to doing the impeller 😬. How do you cook your bass?

[@michaeljsimon]

I sear my bass filets

[@RN67POST]

@@michaeljsimonI fry mine, a lot of people here in Oregon won’t eat bass ! I really enjoy it👍🐟

[@alanbarlow1525]

My brother moved to Oregon for a while years ago. The folks there considered catfish trash. Threw them back...until he showed them how to season them and fry them. Now they are big fans of catfish! Beautiful country up there.@@RN67POST
