[lakeboy]

Model #: 85ETLR76G What year is it?<br /><br />Three cyls compression at 95, one at 115. What should I consider/look out for?<br /><br />What basic service would be recommended to ensure reliability?<br /><br />Where can I get a cowl/cover gasket and carbs rebuild kit?<br /><br />Many thanks,<br />Lakeboy

Howdy Lakeboy.<br /><br />It is a 1976.<br /><br />The first thing you need is a repair manual.<br /><br />Check for aftermarket manuals at the bottom of the page.<br /><br />Good luck.
