Yes it fires up runs only as starter is ingagedAnd what 1977 Evinrude are we talking about here? My best off-the-wall guess is it isn't "running" on all cylinders but with the starter's help, it appears to be.

But we still don't know what motor we are talking about. How many cylinders does it have? How many carburetors? Etc., etc. Could have a fouled carburetor from storage. Could have a spark plug fouled with fogging oil. And more.....
