Hello there boater people!
Just getting back into boating after a long haitus and picked up a 14' morrocraft about a month ago.
Looking around CL for a motor I found a 96 25hp Evenrude listed for $50. I figured that it would at least be a platform for a rebuild, but lo and behold, it runs!
Both cylinders are right @ 90psi but it needs a pump and some other TLC which Ill do over the winter.
My questions.
Is there a for sale/trader page here?
What is the name of the silver/blue paint they used on the 80's engines? I had a robins egg blue metallic 9.9 with a white cowl from that era and would like to duplicate that look. What brand paint to I use?
Similar to this color.
And lastly, is the cough in this video due to too rich an idle setting and if so how do I adjust?
