    Evinrude ticking

    Just revived a 1978 Evinrude 150 V6 with minimal effort. She's a little testy getting cold started, but spins like a top once running. My question is, should I be hearing ticking from the top of the crankcase, like valves ticking? Being unfamiliar with these old motors, I am not sure if that...

    1977 Invader Aquarius logo

    I am restoring a 1977 Invader Aquarius and am looking for any good pictures of the Invader logo and the Aquarius logo.
