I bought this motor brand new in 1984, without electric start, I have many found memories of that motor. I can tell you that it runs great in 17°f air temp and 33°f water temp. Lots of hours on the tiller handle. Thanks for the video.
I do enjoy your videos. On some, you include the compression value on the cylinders. This, combined with the size of the boat, prop pitch and top end speed is an excellent reference for anyone looking to buy an outboard! Thanks again.
Thank you. I found that compression is not that important. Had Evinrude 1987 with 80 psi on both cylinders, ran perfectly and it didn’t lack power and was topping 25 MPH on 1436.
@@vojomatusenko HM... my evinrude 15 hp is 60 PSI, is that ok? it's going great .... thenks ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7jsGFXF_TUY.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-s2iMbZgzprE.html
It sounds really good. I like to see anything over 100 PSI, good ones have 120 PSI. Never had motor with that low compression and running. Let me know how it does on the lake.
He really is great and I think he isn't doing it for money, he just likes to help. Nikola Tesla said he put his research to help mankind before his making of money. Here's a good read from Tesla, he died penniless but will be remembered forever for his achievements. en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Nikola_Tesla#My_Inventions_(1919)
