6602b is a 1966 Evinrude 6hp. Use 50:1 87 octane gas and TC-W3 outboard oil (1 pint of oil for 6 gallons of gas). Spark plugs are Champion J6C gapped at .030" (replacing the old J6J). Lower unit fluid is SAE 90 weight outboard gearcase lube.<br />Welcome to Iboats!

Before my dad passed he mentioned that the guy he purchased the boat from didn't want to part with the motor. It's in good shape. Is this motor worth anything?

No collectors value if that is what you mean. When buying one I normally value them at about 50 bucks a horse if in good running condition.<br />Now ,that is in my area. In your area it may be more or less.<br />There are a lot of them sixes out there. I have one that is a 70 model and it runs like a champ.<br /> Very dependable motors if maintained right.<br />I bet that is why your dads friend didn't want to sell it.
