    What's it worth? 1985 Evinrude 120 V4

    I found this motor in a guy's backyard. on a stand, today. He wants me to make him an offer on it. IF it passes the compression & spark tests I'd like to have it, but I don't know what to offer him. I don't know how long it's been there, or when it last ran, but the cover is on it, & it looks...

    Do you store your outboard motor up or down?

    I've always heard to store it down, so water won't collect in the foot & rust the seals. What do ya'll think.

    Carb float settings for 1993 E8RETB

    I just bought this motor, & haven't had a chance to get the manual yet. I was hoping someone would know the proper settings, so I can try to run it tomorrow.

    Carb Question

    Is there any way to find out a part number for this Carb? The motor itself is long gone, along with the model & serial numbers. I know it's from an Evinrude, not sure what year. I seem to remember the horsepower was between 25 & 35 HP. Any help would be great.
