    Golden Jubilee Evi Sportwin 10 - Should I convert?

    Golden Jubilee Evi Sportwin 10 - Should I convert?

    i just picked one up yesterday 75$cdn :) lacked some TLC but hopefully will run good. I prefer fixing them up instead of sinking white balls in holes in the grass and I get to keep/resell the motor.

    Golden Jubilee Evi Sportwin 10 - Should I convert?

    any links to source these modules $$$ ??? etc... Mag ingnition has been around for all these years and isn't that bad considering but if modules are cost effective .. a lot of these oldies are perfectly fine and were used few hours /summer on trips then stored away most of their lives.

    FICHT ...code 38

    not mine ....just asking... owner stated he get's enough pressure (PSI) to cause the sensor to open as it should. for some reason the EMM declares code38 which normally indicates missing pulses. With justa single wire to the sensor seems that sensor must provide some form of pulsing ground...

    Golden Jubilee Evi Sportwin 10 - Should I convert?

    another installation plate over original bypass cover plate ........pump is off-set a bit . don't forget to plug the air pressure nipple behind the carb note: some pics not mine .. the round pump with gold mesh has given problems apparently so best o use square Mikuni or OMC pumps

    Golden Jubilee Evi Sportwin 10 - Should I convert?

    I have an identical one at the cottage.. easy to convert and has Racerone suggested if you can find a 1960s+ transfer cover it becomes a piece of cake to convert by simply installing an OMC square pump. then change the side connector for single line hose . If you can't find a side cover...

    FICHT ...code 38

    Would anyone on here be familiar with code 38s NO OIL on a FICHT 200hp 1999 Pressure sensor checks out OK within specs and opens (infinity) above 5psi oil pressure yet the EMM falsely declares code 38 (missing oil pulses after x min/seconds) . oil pumps OK no wire chaffing on...

    1975 Evinrude 9.9hp won't shift out of reverse

    you could always try some heat on the shift rod near the bushing to see what happens or... freeze it (rod) or the bushing. keyboarb spray cans from the Dollar stores held upside down will freeze it quickly just as good as more expensive freeze sprays. just ventilate while doing it one...
