WTB HiPerf flywheel gear ring

[msethsmile]

Yeah, mine is broke. Looking for Merc HiPerf v6 245-260 flywheel outer gear ring engaged by bendix/starter. I don't care how many teeth--I have several bendixes. Mark 800-247-4073 Iowa

Hopefully, someone has a busted flywheel that the gear ring is still good...I am reduced to rope starts.

You have a PM

 

[BGohr]

you know there is a part number for it............

 

[msethsmile]

looked up flywheel on web--only listed as whole. called merc dealer--only listed as whole flywheel--doesn't separate gear ring. called merc hi perf in WI--no go

 

[BGohr]

Merc Hi Perf has the number, we used to order them all the time, I only have one left and I'm keeping it

 

[msethsmile]

Thanks for the help. Evidently, Mr. Gohr knows more about merc parts than Merc Hi Perf custmer service.

I agree..

He does.

Call me goofy, but when I call Merc Hi Perf there should be a reliable answer--that's their job. In this case they said the ring was not available. BG should apply for a job at merc or better yet--open up a shop across the street. Its the second time in as many months they have given me the run around.

Mercury doesn't give a chit about high perf outboards anymore...............sad but true.
Easy to just say no then spend any time on it

I think have a 260 flywheel with a bad hub I will look when I get to the shop

msethsmile... if all comes to crap, I'm fairly sure the right machinist could carve this into a useful piece.



Otherwise....

Cliff, one question. Do you really need to go into the woods to get a clean cut on the 2x4's that you use to mash the beer cans on your deck?

 

[FlatOutAlly]

Silly question, Johnny. My neighbor has constructed a french drain delta that carries all the empties from my entire back yard to the street in front of his house. It probably gets no better.

If he doesn't need a ring gear anymore I would be interested in your flywheel. I have a good hub, and have a messed up magnet
