Re: Better manual - Seloc or Clymer or original Johnson service manual?
With an old 1975 Evinrude, I thought the original model/year specific OEM service manual I received with engine may be outdated by now. <br /><br />Had ignition woes, and old OEM said to use Neon Testers and other things I never heard of anymore. So I sprang for the Seloc, think it would have modern procedures with modern equipment. Wrong. Same stuff was needed for testing, but because the Seloc covered many models and years, it was not nearly as specific as the OEM manual was for my model and year. <br /><br />The only thing that was sorta good was the Seloc included a free on-line manual, and with a new cell phone that has good internet (PPC-6700), it may help someday when or if I don't have real OEM manual handy. <br /><br />We keep Seloc manual in the garage, and take OEM in a waterproof bag with us in boat. Even when back at garage, we only use the OEM for reference.
