Evinrude Model 15032<br />Year: 1960<br />HP: 18<br />Displacement: 22.0CID<br />WOT RPMS: 4500<br />Spark Plugs: Champion J4C (was J4J) gapped at .030<br />Fuel/Oil mix: 24:1 87 octane gas to TCW-3 rated outboard oil.<br /><br />The 22.0CID engine had a long run from it's introduction in 1957 as a 18hp to when it was retired in the late-70s as a 25hp. With that kind of a legacy, it's gotta be a good engine!

Hiya & welcome...<br /><br />Yours probably looks alot like my 25 hp... look here<br /> old thread <br /><br />you've already met Paul, he seems to have a soft spot for older OMC twins and has given me lots of info/help with mine... (thanks again Paul)<br /><br />BTW when I pulled the flywheel on mine to change points/condensers I found a cracked coil... a fairly common prob for older motors in general, but easy to fix.<br /><br />Good luck!<br /><br />Brent
