A 1968 model.----A wonderful motor if you can do your own service work.

 

[Cassman]

thank you very much,,,is it possible to put electric start on this motor?

 

[racerone]

Yes it is.-----Many of these left the factory with electric start.--1960 to 1976 models in 18 / 20 / 25 HP versions.------A donor motor can be found with all the parts in many areas.

For a few of those years in that range electric start was available only as a kit, which is nice. There was never a provision for a charging system on these motors though, other than a Canadian 20 from 1975-76 with a 45-watt a/c generator having a side plug.
