Rich....first....welcome to iboats forums.<br /><br />First thing to do if you are serious about the old shaker is get a service manual. For that old an engine, check out the link below for a reprint of the original manual. May not hurt to get a parts manual to.<br /><br /> http://ww3.kencook.com/evinrudejohnsonmanuals/ <br /><br />Have you done compression tests yet? Would be a good idea. Don't want to put a chunk of change in her to find out the cylinders are shot.<br /><br />It would not hurt to rebuild the carb and install a new water pump impeller in it also.<br /><br />The old two hose gas cans are still around. Check out ebay. Once in a while you can pick them up there. May be a little tuffer getting a wire harness. Maybe one of the other guys on the forum will check your post out and give you a lead.<br /><br />Hope we've helped.<br /><br />PS....don't solicit to buy...Mods don't like that. Solicition to buy or sell is vorbot here.<br /><br />Good Luck!<br /><br />Here' another place to check for parts.<br /><br /> http://www.twincityoutboard.com/
