Chrysler 45 HP Outboard
Submitted By: sdunt
Date Created: 08-22-2006
Description: Here's my 'new' outboard that I am thinking of repowering my boat with. Currently there is a 1965 short shaft version of the 45 HP on the boat.

This '78 is a long shaft and it also has an alternator and is setup for push pull steering instead of cable steering.

(Insert New Caption)
Here she is.. Just got home from Madision Wis with her. This will be winter project to go through and figure out what needs to be repaired etc.

Year 1978 Model 457H8J Serial # 2982

The guy I got this from was 'parting' this out and had already sold the starter off of it.. So I get to look for a replacement. Looks like a lot more ebay searches.


Starter was sold


Whats with these coils and mounts
These are home made mounts for the coils and according to my parts book these should be mounted on the side of the power head for this type of ignition system (this is a NON CD system)

Also the coil on the right is cracked all of the way around the top. It will have to be replaced.
