lifting the stand is a good idea, but then I know think you could di it alone??

Reel has a good Idea, put stand on a pallet the legs will go under the pallet, mount the motr and then lift motor and stand toghter and put down on floor!

well just talked with my fishing buddy..he owns a canvas shop and has welding machines and stuff..he said bring the stand in to modify it this week...also he is gonna make a motor harness for me....just need to find some thick webbing and some D-rings...and wake up early one day this week lol

the stand it too heavy to pick up and mount...good idea though!

actually a 140 is ok on fuel. they are actually a 120 with 200 / 225 intake, reeds, and *225 carbs. You can turn a 120 into a 140 by buying a set of 200 / 225 intakes with reeds and use the upper half then a set of 225 carbs the upper 4 and you are riding high with 140 poneys.

Kajun,

My 85' 140 hp was pretty decent on fuel I thought. I haven't sold the motor yet *so let me know if you need anything to get yours going.


I think you should buy the whole thing for spare parts, I'll let it go cheap. Good lower unit and everything! ;D

Another thought........If you were to buy my old motor, would you be able to use the intermediate section and lower unit to make it a 20" instead of buying a jack plate? Just a thought, it might not be that simple.
