    bought a new to me project today. 35 hp, EVINRUDE electric start with controls HAS NO SPARK

    Unhook the control box and jump it at the starter solenoid. If you have spark.... the control box is messing with you.

    115 evinrude fuel leak

    I would agree. Anything other than spraying in the engine than it needs fixing.

    But I have been told that returning home smelling like unburnt two stroke oil is an aphrodisiac! Something to consider 😉

    Try amsoil....they run at 100 to 1 I have an etec that runs xd 100 oil and it never smokes. Modern 2 strokes are a wonder....better fuel economy and less pollution than a 4 stroke then they pulled the plug. Boggles the mind.

    Last piece of advice, use OEM parts when available....sierra parts if that's all you can get, champion plugs....my motor doesn't like ngk's and run with cam roller 1/4 to 1/2 past the 2 marks......when I looked it up your Pennzoil was the cheapest on the market (wonder what that means) Good...

Try a better oil preferably synthetic....I'm running mine at 75 to 1 and I know guys running 100 to 1 especially if your idling or trolling a lot. There's a service bulletin about running a little more advanced (1/4 to...

    Need help evinrude 48 at wits end

    The e and the s suggest 1990....not sure if anything is different though. Either your not doing a complete carb redo or your spark is weak. I'm going with your spark. Buy one or one like this and make sure your jumping 3/8 or better and it's a nice blue arc. Inline spark testers are inferior...

    Somewhere in the mid to early 70's.....look for a welch plug on the block which might have the model number stamped on it. I'm guessing 73
