Hi,
I am working on my father in law's Evinrude fisherman (680 2C) - I have a couple of questions:
1. Does this have some sort of air filter/screen which should be on the front of the intake of the carb? On this one i can see the butterfly plate and I have a feeling this is not right - i would expect some kind of filter on the front of the carb where the air intake is.
2. Will one of those devices which you can connect to a hose and clamp on the bottom part of the engine where the water intake would be work for this engine or will I have to find a large dustbin or something to fill with water to put it in to test run it.

Thank you


Lee

I've heard of special adapters to use a hose to test these types, but no longer available. Sawhorse and trashcan of water will suffice.. Water level MUST be over the waterpump bulge in lower unit, as these types of pumps are not self-priming. Good luck!
