After much soaking in good ol' Marvel Mystery Oil, the big Johnson
finally freed up. Sadly, at least two rings broke in the process, and
the motor is headed for that big eBay round up in the sky.
Pulled the motor yesterday with my trusty cherry picker, and
prepared myself for the process of parting her out.
Goodbye ol' Johnson!
The second picture shows what happens when a sawzall falls into
the wrong hands. Could the PO (not you, John) have made any worse
of a job of hacking up the motor well?
I cut a piece of Starboard and will cover this mess later when I have
a new motor in place.
