Here is my power plant. A 1979 135 that has very very very very low hours. I am only the third owner of this motor, my dad was the second owner and a good friend of my dad was the first owner. My dads friend david never used this motor at all, as been decribed to me by david is that he only ran this motor 40 or 50 times. my dad owned it for 5 years and used it 4 times. I have owned it for 4 years and can say i have only used it 20 to 30 times. do the math fellas!!! how many hours are truelly on this 79' ? I painted it 3 years ago yamaha blue because i had some spray cans left over from painting my 200 yamy on my seaox.The seadrive bracket you see this motor on has only been run in fresh water since 1985. my question is should i use the bracket? should i make it 25 inch transom and find a gimble bracket with power trim tilt? or should i keep her old old school and put her on the gimble bracket that has the manual tilt? I want simple!!! i want functional!!! this motor is running 132lbs. on all cylinders. give me some advice fellas.
