I bought a 1962 crestliner with 1962 evinrude 75 hp outboard. This last time on the water, it seems the ignition switch has gone bad. All trouble points towards the ignition switch due to it will run if I keep the key in starting postion, but as soon as it goes into run/on position, it dies...
I am new to the outboard engine... I know that you have a 24:1 mix... What kind of oil do you mix? The old guy that had the boat/engine past away, and bought it off his family. They had no idea what oil to use... Somebody told me 30 wt, but that seemed heavy to me.
Same for the gear oil...
