The few gaskets that I needed and the carb kit for my 1959 Evinrude Lightwin came in. I finally had a little time last night to work on the motor. I installed the head and exhaust plate. I checked the compression and it seemed good. I then installed the new carb kit and reassembled the carb...
I disassembled the carburetor. The float was very fragile and basically crumbled into pieces when I removed it. I have found suppliers for carb kits, but none of the kits include the float. Anybody know where I can get a float for this engine. Thanks. www.faculty.mcneese.edu/jbailey/lightwin.htm
I'm in the process of restoring my dad's 1959 3 HP Evinrude Lightwin. Can anybody tell me what paints will closely match the original blue and white that the engine was painted. Thanks.<br /><br />www.faculty.mcneese.edu/jbailey/lightwin.htm
