It takes a lot longer to repair / build a boat than what they tell you.

Any control box ( Johnson / Evinrude ) with the big red plug will work.

Learn how the primer valve works.----And key is to be pushed in WHILE cranking.

According to the model # it had trim and tilt at one time.----Any pictures of the power head ?-----Model # the same on the engine block?

Read post #5 ??

I would start with checking the health of the motor.-----A compression test first.-----Post your numbers here.

Hint----The commercial models do not use the word----INTRODUCES----for determining year marketed !

This is an example of the wonderful interchangeability of the 22 cube models.-----Parts are everywhere, new and used.

???--IT IS A 1992 MODEL !!------Use the 1992 parts book.-----There is no difference between a commercial model and a recreational model.---Well , maybe paint and decals that you can clearly see !

I say it is a 1992 model -----Commercial model.----Most know that in 1993 there was a total redesign of the 9.9 / 15 HP models.-----Cowlings were different.----Recoil was mounted on top of flywheel.------The RPLO is clearly listed as a 1992 model !!

The man says is motor is now NOT STARTING.-----Easy to follow steps in post # 3 and no money spent.

Some will argue.----I would charge the battery.----Then have battery load tested ( even if new ) last week.-----Then take starter apart for inspection .----Test ohms on armature.----No money spent on these tests !

Are you pushing the key in while cranking it over ?------Is the electric primer valve working ?

Are there choke plates in the 1982 model carburetors?-------There are in the 78 model.-----So you would also need the electric primer valve.

Carburetors do not need to be open on a 2 stroke like that.-----Compression seems low.-----Taken at what elevation ?

I am well aware of how much it takes to drive a boat at 40 MPH !!!----Point is folks drain out very good gear oil on the outdrive and rarely even check rear axle on the pick-up truck !

Agreed with 20 hrs a season gear oil can be used for many seasons.-----After all many rear axles in pick-up trucks rarely get oil changed for years and years..----If there is no water in the gear oil it is good for another season.

Hurry-----Find a shop with a dynamometer to check power output on this motor.-----Need to establish this before juggling / guessing with props.

Did you clean carburetors ???----Did you install latest water pump kit with instruction to move tell tale fitting to top of block.----And other cooling modifications , yes or no ?
