I recently picked up a 1958 Seahorse RD-19C with a Golden Javelin cowl. Does anyone have a digital copy of a manual for the motor? I'd like to convert it to electric start and mate it with the javelin cowl with some kind of custom paint job. Thanks,

So I'm rebuilding a 53 Evinrude fastwin when I come across a 56 Johnson Javelin in my town. It sits out in the elements all day and night on a 61 Crownline something or other. Both are in serious need of me... and I of them. I made the mistake of stopping and asking if it was for sale and...

Does anyone out there have a digital parts manual for a fastwin serial #15012 or perhaps a link. I want to make sure I'm getting the correct parts for this rebuild I'm attempting.
Thanks

I think I'm goint to have to replace anything rubber on this motor, almost all of it is brittle or cracked. Speaking of cracked the gear shift handle is cracked. Unhappy!
Until I can get an impact driver I drained the "oil" out...

Just got my pictures off of the camera. This is the motor before I started.
This is the carbon build up in the exhaust cover. I thought it was a lot.
Dropped the lower unit this evening. Still haven't gotten the oil drain plug...
Hello,
My family recently was given an aluminum Lone Star boat with an Evinrude motor and two gas tanks, an Evinrude and an Elgin.
I know! I was excited too. Everything is in rough shape... but aluminum is an amazing metal! I'm focusing on the motor first. I would like to get it running and...
