Hi
New to this but managed a search and couldn't find anything on victajet so here goes
I have a seized victajet outboard motor, 125cc from about 1960s 65?? Prety sure they didn't do it as a 160cc.
Have stripped it down , have manual for parts numbers but don't know if they line up with mower parts numbers , and basically water ha been sitting in the barrel for a long time.
My question is that a elderly friend said that some of the victas had industrial motors on them that had bigger bearings. I have nothing to compare the crank bearing to so I don't know if I need to find a industrial 125cc ( if they existed) or just any old Victa 125cc.? Interesting point as I knew some of the lawnmowers used the cutting plate disc as a balance and flywheel so was also wondering if the crank in a victajet was anything different or special?
Hope this is the right place to post this.
Guess the next question is who has a 125cc motor that has been rebuilt and what should I pay? That'll decide whether I investigate doing this motor up but 40 thou wouldn't do it so I would have to sleeve it and haven't looked at bottom end yet.
Any help or advice would be appreciated.
In Sydney lower Northn Shore if that helps
Mick
