Re: 1982 evinrude 90hp rebuild?
It is locked up but im going to put some mystery oil in it my dad had told me about tomorrow which i hope will do the trick, i am going to order the service manaul tomorrow. I just want to make sure if i rebuild it that i am going to be happy with it since it is a old motor. I am pretty handy with car motors but boat motors look like little go cart engines seem easy to do but really dont know much about. I was priced at about 20 hrs of work at $55 a hr for a rebuild and thats not including parts. Where would a good place for me to order parts at for a good price i found one place but it was like a 1000 bucks for parts pistons and all but what do i really need? i mean if im going to do it im going to do it right. I dont want to be on the water and something go wrong and i hate doing this twice.<br /><br />The cylinder walls look in pretty good shape and pistons to. I havnt seen the crank yet havnt took it that far apart but i guess i might get into it this week. Should i just rering it and do the bearings and not get new pistons? this is the place i found but seem a little pricey<br />
