So Im moving right along with my resto and hava couple questions. But first here is the details of my motor. It is a 1964 Evindude Starflite 90-S, Had a complete rebuild 2 years ago and runs great (according to po, though I did get to see it run) Model #90493 S and Serial # E03460. Im getting to the point where I want to buy new gauges and things for it as it still has all the originals. So here are my 3 questions...
#1, with the boat/motor being as old as it is, it was installed with a dummy light that would light up when the engine would get hot, (dont even know that it worked). Can I by-pass the dummy light and go with a modern temp gauge?
#2, the motor came with the usual 6 gallon metal outboard tanks with the hose with the primer bulb in line. I plan on installing a 15 gallon above deck permanent tank. Can I get away with running a fuel pump rather than the line with the in line primer?
#3, WOuld I also be able to install a tach?
Let me know your ideas
