I have a 1961 Evinrude 18hp outboard motor. I do not know where to find a water flusher for it. I know alot of people use barrels but that isn't good for me. Can anyone tell me where to find one???

Re: 1961 18hp Water flusher

They don't make one any more. There used to be a taco shaped flusher available, but they aren't made any longer. The only way that really works is the barrel method. If your outboard is on a transom, you can even manage it in a smaller trash can, as long as the lower unit and leg are submerged in water deep enough...over the water pump and a few inches more.

The problem is the location of the water intake. It's almost impossible to get something that will work on it.

Deep bucket, kitchen sized trash can, or a barrel. That's how you do it on those.
