Anybody have one? I'm looking for info on fuel filters, points, condensor and others.

Thanks in advance.

Redline 302 marine engine?

 

[Stranger]

Yes. 302 Marine (Semper Fi. sorry. Had to do that).
Looking for Fuel Filter and points/condenser numbers.
Reverse rotation. Does it take a "Special Starter or Alternator"?

Yes, Redline is out of business. They were in Lewiston, ID.

Fuel filter.....go to your local Napa dealer and bring it with you......I'm assuming that you are looking for the filter mounted in the base of the mechanical lift pump?

The points and condenser will be easy to find at Napa also.....I'd recommend replacing them with a Pertronix electronic ignition. Points suck- In my opinion. I'm a full time marine mechanic and won't touch an inboard unless it's getting electronic ignition installed.

Redline built some good engines and that little 302 was smooth and economical for its size but I don't miss them....redline was a pain in the butt company to deal with.

I did not know that Redline made a reverse rotation engine. It will most certainly have a reverse rotation starter......and flywheel ring gear........unless it's a top mount starter. Is your starter bottom or top mount?

Bottom mount starter.
Firing order cast into the intake manifold is NOT standard.
