    Re-use exhaust housing gaskets?

    No spark on 1968 100hp Evinrude

    I'm thinking you need to begin at the beginning. That is, check to see if you have 12V at the pulse pack input (red wire) when cranking. If not, work your way back through the circuit. Vacuum switch first, then from the key switch, etc. EDIT: Oh yeah, the voltage suppressor also, if it still...

    1954 15hp Evinrude doesn't even sputter

    I know what you did wrong. Everybody does it the first time. The equalizer spring must be pre-assembled up on the shoulder of the spindle before inserting the spindle into the rope sheave. And stay there till you get the screw installed in the center. Screw & nut are to be tightened all the...
