My Father just gave me a 1980 7.5 evinrude for my jon boat. I have never seen a motor with so many switches and knobs. I need get the gyst of most of them but want to know how to start it. I'm assuming it's similar to most 2 cycles. (pump the ball, pull choke out full, pull once, put it back to half and pull it in the start position till it runs..in Neutral) If I'm wrong let me know before I break it.
Or let me know where I can find them online.

your one the right track, but i pull 3 times before going to 1/2. if it has dead man lanyard, it has to be connected.
