BARNFIND! 1969 EVINRUDE BOBCAT SITTING FOR 10 YEARS.. WILL IT RUN? 

Interesting find. I'm from OMC country and thought I had seen every Evinrude, Johnson and Snow Cruiser model ever built. I have never seen that early version of the Bobcat.

Novus plastic polish will take the scratches out of the windshield and the headlight cover. I have to say that you did a very nice instructional video on the carb rebuild.

i had a homelite forrester with a jlo 372cc engine wire cable pull start ran excellent.

Sled is in pretty darn good condition. JLO/Rockwell engines were very popular in the upper Midwest. I’ve seen a lot of those Evinrude with twin opposed cylinders engines in the late 60’s and early 70’s. If I remember correctly they were made by Onan. Cool video. Haven’t seen one of those Bobcats in unrestored condition look that good in quite some time.

Awesome! We wish we had one of these!!

It's a small world.I just talked with you the other day about antique sleds on marketplace.And the Bobcat sold fast !David in Wilton

Had the same sled .only thing I see missing is on the back, It had another bar you could swing down to keep the track from touching the ground

JLO/ Rockwell engines (German made) were common in Scorpion snowmobiles until maybe the mid to late 70’s? I read they were also used by various sled manufacturers before most manufacturers folded. Great video! This is a beautiful sled and a nice addition to your collection.

Cool find ,,,,it's a good looking sled ....nice to see what ya do with it . Also , a good "tutorial" on the carb rebuild . Working on a 71 tnt 292 at the moment with a Tillotson HD...helpful.....

you can physically need the line between your teeth to also warm up the line

Please get yourself the proper 90° 13 mm wrench for removing carburetors
