Wizard WF-7

Proud owner or another Wizard!!!I just purchased a WF-7 Serial # 412412 I believe it's a 1950 year model. It is missing the bottom cowling cover (does anyone have a spare or know where I can purchase one)? Motor has very good compression and is getting good spark/fire and started after giving it a shot of staring fluid. But gas was left in tank so I'm going out to the shop, to start the dis-assembly and cleaning process. Again, If anyone has any idea where to get the needed parts, please let me know! I can be contacted at ingramm61@yahoo.com of feel free to call me @ (931) 625-5198 Thanks in advance!!!!

Re: Wizard WF-7

I picked up a tower/gearcase from WF7 last Spring
at a meet, I noticed the prop shaft thread was
1/2"x 13 threads per inch. Kiekhaefer's seem to favor fine thread for crankshaft and prop shaft. Would you
check your prop shaft thread and relate what you
find there. Thanks

Re: Wizard WF-7

It's sort of expensive, but Ebay has a lower cowling that would probably work for you.

Re: Wizard WF-7

That lower cowl will not fit a WF7, only one from another WF7 or WG7 will fit.

Re: Wizard WF-7

Sorry, I was under the impression all of the super 10s used the same cowlings. I got this impression from this picture in the photos section of the website.

The caption reads "Ronald (Lietha)'s, Four completely restored Wizard Super 10's, 55-56, WM-7 & WM-7A's.

I can't find a clear picture of a WF7 on the internet

Re: Wizard WF-7

Hey Bryan, I should have clarified, the WF7 & WG7 are tank mounted on top motors similiar, but not the same to their Mercury cousins, with the split removable bottom cowl.

Re: Wizard WF-7

Louis,
Sorry it took me so long to get back to you! I checked mine today and it's 1/2 X 13

Re: Wizard WF-7

Thanks. Now I wonder if that is unique to Wizard or if Mercury shares same thread on some version(s) of the KE-KG series.
