1964 mfg endinboro motor

[Mfsekk@optonline.net]

i have the original 60 hp envinrude. can anyone explain proper cold starting procedures, i was unable to keep the motor running at idle and would constantly stall when put in gear. i tried adjusting low speed, with choke on and off but could not get setting proper. a call to previous owner said that due to the cold water,november in nj,and that he ran fogging oil to winterize ,altough i ran it for 15+ minutes, the conditions would effect all settings he had from the summer. any help would be appreciated. also, do you have source for the evinrude blue motor cover paint.thanks,keith

Hi again !
Maybe we're all watching the same game?! Look in the "Out board Engine : FAQ" section. Thing may vary slightly due to elec/man choke etc. If you post on the J/E engine forum , give the model/serial # and you'll get the most accurate info. the better the info you supply the better detail in reply.
P.S. we love pictures! -and I wish i could be trying to boat...16" snow + lakes all froze up
Oh one quick tip too.. change your lower end fluid (now) Old seals can leak and collect water in the oil . Then during a cold snap you may find it's cracked the gear housing.
