    1964 Johnson 9.5 HP Seized (MQ-10R)

    How did you have the motor trimmed? With the plate that low I would work on the trim before I set it back down.

    Broken bolt in thermostat housing

    Some are like that. You ought to have to lay under heavy equipment to do that with grade 8 bolts that you have had to heat cherry red and let cool naturally to loose their hardness then do what he did. Done it for hours/days on end.
