Very Nice! Is that a 2HP engine? I'm trying to find myself one similar. |

Looks like a fairly complete engine. Do you have the exhaust manifold for it? Also is that a Detroit Engine Works tag on it or another Companies name? |

I think I just bought a Detroit Marine engine here in Australia. At least that is what I think it is. Most marine engines here seem to be Chapman, Blaxland or Simplex. I'll post a pic as soon as I can wrestle the big bastard out of the back of the ute. May need some guidance. Cheers. |

I have just purchase a Detroit 2.5 hp fresh water one lunger outboard motor. I am trying to find the value of this. It turns and seems to be complete with kero tank and starter switch. Purchased from a home in blue hill Maine. If you can help me on the value I would appreciate it. thank you} |

If you want to sell it on eBay you can do a search for similar past listings, or just list it with a fixed price and "best offer" option, then people will make offers - hopefully - and you will get an idea of what it is worth to potential buyers, which is the only true estimate of value there is. |

Why do these people post in the forum wanting information and then never reply to anyone? Posted back in 2014 that's 3 or 4 years to reply and still nothing. Probably sold it I guess. |
