R Parts hard to come by?

[rkitterman]

I have a 54 Evinrude Fleetwin model 7516 7.5 HP that I am looking for the gasket that goes between the reed plate and the intake. Is this a part available from Napa or am up a creek without a paddle?

Should not be that hard to get. Did you try your local dealer? Sea-Way in Seattle?

That's not a hard gasket to cut, either. Some gasket material from NAPA, a sharp pair of small sewing scissors and a hole punch are all you need.
