Re: need help on 1958 gale outboard

ok i have done complete tune up new coils,wires,points,condensors and e3plugs took the boat out was running great then it would bog down and surge when it was done doing that it would run great again so i got home and pulled the carb first thing i noticed was the needle valve was sticking so i blew the whole carb out with carb cleaner made sure the needle valve was not sticking any more put it back together and went back out now its doing the same thing only without the running great part
i can find the carb kit but not the fuel pump kit i have compression and spark so now i'm looking at the fuel delivery does anyone know why it would run worse after the carb cleaning don't make sense to me
Hi I have the exact same motor. Where did you find parts?

As stated these motors were built by Johnon / Evinrude.-----Find a shop with a grey haired mechanic to help you with the correct parts.----Likely parts are in stock at a good boat shop.
