Hey Im fixing up an old fishing boat that belonged to my Great grandfather. Its been sitting in my Dads barn for many years and I recently have cleaned it up pretty good but the motor has some problems.
My 1972 Evinrude 6 horsepower outboard motor is only firing on one cylinder and so it won't idle. I believe one of the coils is not functioning properly since I could only get one spark plug to fire. What do you think with this given information? Do you have any advice?
I have been reading some of the other threads and I think the thing to do would be to replace one of the coils. Does anyone know where I can download a free pdf of the owners manual and not have to pay money?
It would be nice to get it going again I have some good memories fishing on the boat from when I was a little kid.
Any help is appreciated
