Yes it is. I just do it for the satisfaction of doing it. Just a rewarding feeling to get them going. If folks like to see them run ...great, if not well, I enjoy it.
Another sweet smooth running 63! It really does sound like it has "low hours" on it! Looking forward to seeing this one on a boat this Spring! We were at 39 degrees today in southeast Iowa. We've been up to 49 a couple times in the last week. Plenty of melting taking place over this way. Getting this from Ron Baker, you definitely did well! Have a great weekend! Mark in Iowa.
Thank you. I am quite sure this one has low hours. It is exceptionally clean and shows very little wear on the telltale things under the cover.O am really looking forward to getting both of these 63s on the boat this year. We hit 43 here today. It is supposed to be 50 tomorrow. We have seen 49 twice this week as well. We had about a foot of snow on the ground and most of it melted this week. Thanks for watching!
I guess Im asking the wrong place but does anybody know a tool to log back into an Instagram account..? I stupidly forgot my login password. I love any assistance you can offer me!
@Kylan Alexzander Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site thru google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Seems to take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Thank you. I added the logos to the sweatshirt. The '57 Evinrude script logo is on the right sleeve in blue. The Aerocraft boats logo is on the back in red, white, and blue. This is one of the nicest Evinrude 10s I own. It should be a good performer. We will find out when the lake opens up. Thanks for watching!
Boy o boy, what a sweetheart this one is for sure...The paint almost looks too good to be original, too bad about the oil stains on the shroud....Looks like you have got another keeper on your hands, but save this one just for church on Sundays....
Yes, it is too bad about the oil stains on the cover. The paint is definitely original and it is still very nice. This one is certainly a keeper. It will get exercised, but it won't get run a lot. I sure am looking forward to a lake ride with this motor. Thanks for watching, Don!
Nice very clean, it' sounds good. Do you replace thermostats, or test them? Notice ya never mention replacing them, and the blue pull handle looks like it held up well, lve got one just like it, just picked up a cd-11 all original down to the j6j plugs, it has a rubber cover attached for covering fuel connection at tiller, its tethered on fuel line, noticed they painted prop same as motor too, thanks for posting
Thank you. This is a really clean example of a '63 Sportwin. It can't have very many hours on it. The powerhead feels very solid like a new motor. The.blue pull handle is cracking and pretty dried put, but it is one of the better ones of the original light blue pulls that I have had. I have had to replace one thermostat in all the thermostat motors I have. One more in a motor I worked on for someone else. I find they rarely fail in fresh water. I have had to replace a few thermostat gaskets. I only take the thermostats out if they either run too hot, or do not seem to run as warm as they should. I have had to take a number of them out and clean the passages as well as the tstat. Replacement I find to be rarely necessary in the motors I have bought, though. Congratulations on your CD-11. They're great little motors. I have never seen the rubber fuel fitting cover. Yes, the CD-11 had the prop painted Seahorse Green to match the motor. Mine is that way as well. Thanks for watching!
Just how many outboards did Ron sell you ? Lol. Your close on the story , the owner died leaving his son and wife the business well the son hated old motors and just wanted to got rid of his dad’s collection when Ron and I walked in and darn near cleaned him out ! Best score of my life ! Lol
He sold me quite a few over the past couple of years. That story was the Cliff's Notes version of Ron's version of the story, so it may have lost a bit of detail along the way.🙃. That was definitely a score for you guys. Thanks for filling in the gaps. I always miss those sales like that.
Great shape...just a beautiful motor. Again, things are RIGHT to get that idle. Do you use a timing tool and multimeter on your points? You must she is timed PERFECT.
Thank you. This one is really in fantastic condition. It is a shame the hood is stained, but it still is presentable. The rest of the motor just needs a little degreasing and a wash & wax. Yes, I typically do use a timing tool to set the points. I actually use it with a magneto timer instead of an ohmmeter most of the time as that allows me to have the coils and condensers connected to the points while I set them. I can get this idle quality with a feeler gauge too, but it takes a lot of care and more time to achieve. The timing tool makes a lot quicker work of setting the timing properly. I do not have the timing tool for the large crank 40hp and I set it without the timing tool last year. Amazingly, that 40hp will idle like this 10 horse. If it is in gear it will usually stop when the throttle is all the way down. I have to use the kill switch to kill it in neutral. It still idles against the stop. That is a really great running motor. Thanks for watching!
@@oldjohnnyrude8404 I have a 10 junked when I got it but the hood is at least restorable. I love these motors. Yes it is a pain to use a feeler gauge as you are trying to get it perfect and when you tighten the screw....out again! Nice motor.... thanks for the vid JR. Looking forward to all these on the water!
@@outboardfixer The '59 10hp in the previous video was a 20 dollar parts motor when bought it. That hood is rough, but it is restorable. I haven't decided to what level I will restore it. It would need a skim over the fiberglass to cover up the fibers. I don't know if I want to take it that far though, or just give it a decent paint job and decals to make it look better. The feeler gauge method is more time consuming, but done right, it works fine. The timing tool just makes it perfect without the guesswork. It is a good feeling to save one that was given up on and bringing it back to regular service. 👍
I recently picked up a 9.9 Johnson Sail-master with a 20 inch shaft. What makes a sail-master different than a regular Johnson 9.9 long shaft? Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
To the best of my knowledge, the only mechanical difference between a standard long-shaft 9.9 Johnson/Evinrude and a 20-inch shaft Sail Master is the prop. The Sail Master has a lower pitch prop for pushing the displacement hull of a sailboat through the water and keeping to engine in the proper RPM range. I believe the Sail Master prop is a 9.25x7P and the standard 9.9 prop is a 9x10P. Thanks for watching!
Can you tell me where I could go to to download a parts diagrams of my 86 Evinrude 15 hp. This motor has been worked on by a previous owner. I want to put it back together with all the parts where they actually belong.
