Re: 1963 40hp Evinrude smokes
Hey Mr's Lark40 and mfg1963<br /><br />I have a Selectric Lark40,, what year did they start making them?? <br /><br />I have always ran it at 25:1 just cos thats what I always used years back when racing motorcross and I'm not used to the idea of using 50:1 safely..<br /><br />so I think mine is a 62, but maybe not.. either way.. I am ok with modern oil and 25:1??<br /><br />(I run my 72 Johnson at 32-35:1 because I can't bring myself to try 50:1 it seems almost unnatural to me to use that little oil...)<br /><br />Incidently, I always noticed abit of smoke from mine as well (the old evinrude), but not that much.. if I was you, I'd consider a decarb and then try a different oil...<br /><br />rgds<br /><br />frank<br /><br />rgds<br /><br />Frank
