    Hey Guys, What were the production years for the Lark model engines, including all horsepower and variants (i.e. Lark II, III, etc)? Thanks! Adam

    My gear shift cable end fix

    The old plastic end on my gear shift cable finally broke on my 1960 Lark 2. I looked on ebay and online to try and source one, but couldnt really find what I needed, so I made my own. It has exactly the same dimensions as the old one, only this one is steel :) I shouldnt have to worry about it...

    1990 US Marine 15hp

    I was told Mercury bought out US Marine? I'm looking for some help/parts for I believe a 1990 US Marine Force 15hp. I need ignition parts/diagram for this thing, it has no spark, and the ignition is weird.

    1990? 15hp force ignition

    My cousin has a Force 15hp engine on his boat. Since I just restored my 40hp Evinrude, he asked me if I could get this going for him. I guess he took it to a local place, and they said its to old, we cant get parts for it, and gave it back. I pulled the flywheel, and there are just 2 magnetos...

    Lower Unit seal kit?

    Now that I have my 1960 Lark 2 all fixed and up and running, I want to make sure there are no issues with it. I did notice last season when running it after I replaced the impeller, I was getting some gear oil leakage from what appears to be the exhaust, and I'm sure water is getting in the...

    Lets see your 13ft interiors

    My 1960 130sport (13.3 ft) is due for a re-do. The bottom is all beat up, and it needs paint inside and out (thanks to the previous owner). I'm thinking while I have it all apart, I may update the interior. I'm thinking about re-designing the setup a little bit to maximize interior space and...

    Single lever control conversion?

    Is there any way I can convert my 1960 40hp Evinrude to a single lever control? It would make things so much easier. Thanks

    Big twin generator pics?

    Looking for a pic of how the stock generator mounts up to an Evinrude big twin. Just trying to figure out where it may have gone on my 1960 40hp.

    Mounting this Humminbird "puck" transducer help *pic*

    I just got a nice HDR 600 with deep/shallow water alarm. I'm tired of finding the shallow spots in the river with the engine :mad: Anyway, it has a puck style in-hull transducer. I imagine a good spot to mount it would be on the transom, so even up on plane, it will still be in the water. I...

    Where does this wire go? (lark 2 40hp)

    I'm chasing down the cause of my no spark at the lower plug, and I see this wire laying under the mag plate. I'm thinking I left it off when I reassembled the mag assembly. Is it a ground wire for the mag plate or for something else? Just exploring all my options to try and figure out why I keep...

    1960 lark 2 40 horse problems (updated w/pic)

    I just aquired a boat with a lark 2 40hp. I read the reviving an outboard thread (been sitting in a garage for about 20yrs), and have replaced the plugs, impeller, lower unit oil, carb rebuild (hight speed out one turn, low 1.5), and verified I have nice blue spark and a working fuel pump. The...

    Lark 2 fuel pump diagram?

    Evinrude has diagrams for everything on their site except the fuel pump. I took mine off to check the condition of the diaphram, and now I dont remeber which spring goes where. I put it back together how I thought it went, and no gas is leaving it to the carb when priming. Anyone know how they...

    60 lark 2 shift lever pivot

    I mistakenly removed the shift rod pivot while draining all the old nasty lower unit oil on this Lark 2 I'm trying to bring back to life. There is a hole in the shift lever that appears the pivot bolt slips through. If I install it there however, it will only shift into neutral and reverse, not...

    1960 Lark 2 generator conversion?

    I just aquired a 1960 13.3 Boston Whaler with a 40hp Lark 2. The thing is in great condition, and I have no doubts it will start up with some minor maintenance. I'd like to add a generator to the thing though, so I can add some accessories like a trolling motor, fish finder, lights, etc. Is...
