1969 Mercury Short Shaft 100hp Inline 6 Tower of Power $750 + Spare Powerhead & parts
I have a complete running 1969 short shaft 100hp Merc for $750. Matching mid and powerhead serial numbers (2573844). Factory block bolt tags in place (hasn’t been pulled apart). Compression as follows: 1=125, 2=120, 3=125, 4=120, 5=120, 6=120. I’ve only ran it on a stand. No water in the lower unit oil, suggests seals are good there.
I bought this motor 2 years ago. Seller said it wouldn’t shift and hasn’t ran in a while. I dropped the lower unit, found the shift shaft 180° out of phase. I rebuilt the fuel pumps, cleaned the carb filters, and put new plugs in. I poured a little oil down each cylinder with it trimmed up and let it sit a little while before trying to start it. It fired right up. Attached video is from 6/27/2020.
The water pump needs replacement. I was going to wait to replace until the engine went on my boat. Plans have since changed and I don’t need this engine.
I have three 100hp cowls, feel free to pick one. I also have a 100hp powerhead and a couple long shaft mids available if interested. The powerhead hasn’t been ran in over 5 years. I took this powerhead off to paint and reassemble the engine but I found a 1350 part way through and abandoned this powerhead.
Engine is located in Cary, IL. I frequently drive between Cary & Fond du Lac, WI. I can transport for a serious buyer.
