Yes, all the fuel lines need replacing. I won't even attempt to turn it over without replacing all of them - they are dried stiff. And yes, definitely will replace the impeller. . It was given to me by an older lady I work with who recently lost her husband. She knows I like boats and fishing...

Assuming it has good compression. Assuming it runs and has a good lower unit. Is it worth keeping? It looks like parts are a little hard to come by than my Johnson.

After reading and searching, it appears mine is period correct for 1967, but it appears to be in great shape. I just got back from a 4 day fishing trip and it's dry. . I'm thinking the Snickers wrapper ended up down there when they replaced the deck. I don't know when that was. . Either way, my...

What does original Styrofoam look like in a 1967 Holiday? . .

On a couple occasions some have posted to verify if my styrofoam isn't water logged. From what I could see looking in the bilge, it appeared it was it great condition. Today I decided to pull up some of the plywood floor to see how wide and tall a fuel tank I could fit under the floor, well, now...

It's a 1994. The ad says near new condition. Here's the link: It's not mine. I live in Oregon. Personally, I think it's well worth it. Especially since a tiller is rare here. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1HAiaZyezL/

Here's that motor in a brochure

I was thinking similar. I've been looking closely at that there on other motors like mine because mine had a whole lot less thread showing, and mine was too retarded using static timing.

What's that orange stuff near the timing adjustment? .

It's on FB for over $4000. I won't post a link so I don't break any rules.

Yeah, I've been reading they are stable on stable water. 😊 The lady just wants it hauled off. Portland Oregon area.

Nevermind, I think it's called a tri-hull. I'm reading they are unwanted boats.

I think I posted in your dupe thread. Does the electric fuel pump shut off when the engine dies?

I think I've gotten that gunk when I idled in a barrel too long. Is that what that motor calls for? Unless you have a vintage Johnson, I would think you should be closer to 50:1 - That would be less ounces of oil per gallon than what you are mixing at 24:1. 24:1 seems like way too much oil per...

Exhaust oil mixing with water perhaps.

Every motor seems to be slightly different, but for mine I have to raise the throttle handle up about an inch and a half, and then just do a squirt when cranking. I don't hold or keep the key pushed in while cranking. But that's just mine. Once the motor is warm, I don't have to push the key in...

Here she is running at 38mph, 5400 RPM WOT on a 1967 18-foot StarCraft Holiday with 3- 200 pound guys and our ice chest and gear. . Near Astoria Oregon on the Skipanon River. . I struggled with getting the trim correct. And you can see I was porpoising some at the end. . . I'm figuring out...

I guess that answers that. 👍 Thanks for finding and posting that important information.
