just saw a 1960 evinrude 10 hp on Craigslist for 100$ I think it is model 10020? How good is this model? Thx
That was the last year for the bronze bushing on the wrist pin.------The 61 to 63 models used a needle bearing.--------Same needle bearing as was used on the 20 / 40 HP and also on a V-4 model 125 HP.------In my humble opinion that bearing is cosidered " robust " for the 10 HP-----So check it out if it was a regular runner for slop in that bushing.----It will rattle at idle if bad.--------If it sat around it may well be OK there.-----Bonus----The later rods and pistons with the improved bearing will swap in.
