Today I dig out my old Florida skiff and start the vintage Evinrude SPL 88. I show my process of dewinterizing your old outboard motor to get it running for the spring and summer months. I hope you enjoy and stay positive!!!
I recently boat a boat with a similar model V4 Johnson, Its been fantastic so far, Just replaced the impeller, gear oil, and did a paint job. The paintjob mine had before wasn't as patina as yours LOL. Great video! Hope the engine is good to you for awhile! i made some vids on my channel if your interested too
I will do that, it has done it since I got the motor. I have a spare starter from a 75hp I think that is the same I can put on the bot for a spare. Thanks for the comment!
It was used the season prior. Spark plugs and wires are a year or 2 old. Not sure or when a water pump impeller was done. Lower unit gear oil recently changed.
