Great job getting it running Luc it truly was a motor that I had gave up on because it was so bad good job bringing it back from the dead

I love starting with scrap. That way everything you do is an improvement.

Now get back to work on those other boats!

I might have said this earlier in the thread. I love starting with stuff people consider garbage because at that point everything you do is an improvement.

From being delivered in milk crates to running 80.
It fired up for the first time tonight ! I’m so excited. I’m sure my neighbours are not.

Call Rick Montoya...... www.yamatoracing.com..... he is the USA dealer....phone: 206-283-4773. Call before noon Pacific Time (Seattle). He will have the key for the flywheel.

As demonstrated in this photo there is a million things in my garage. But there's no metric key stock to finish off installing the flywheel.



Edit: unsure why the motor is 90* off in the photo I assure you it's not that way in real life.

Good write up, happy that the prop has returned to its home and native land.

I didn’t mention who the prop came from but I do feel I was given a “new racer discount”.
If that person wants to speak up they are welcome to.
If not they should know I’m quite excited to try it.

Go to ‘Boat Racing Facts.com.... and search’Part 9: Ron France’.

Ron is from Canada.... and was a very good boat racer.... Mainly running A Stock Hydro when the Mercury KG4 was the motor for the class. He built all his own boats, motors and props.

Cool.... France is good no doubt about it.

Tell me about France props, can’t find much online. Who made or makes them and where ?

[DeanFHobart]

Was told it was a France it does have an “F” stamped into the hub.

Cool.... France is good no doubt about it.

I saw a picture of the makers mark, F with a circle around it, definitely a France wheel.
