[QUOTE="CMOS, post: 432137, member: 15462"] Just thinking.... I see people running old motors from the 50's, 60's, and 70's all the time. They seem to run quite well. This begs the question: other than electronic ignitions, have 2-stroke outboards "improved" over the last 50 years? I'm currently running a 1966 Johnson 9.5 on my 14' tinner until I get the 1982 15 HP running. The 66 runs like a champ. Never has let me down, even when 15 miles down-river in the middle of nowhere. It ALWAYS starts, whether its 30 degrees outside or 95. So, have they improved? If so, what are your thoughts on how? CMOS [/QUOTE]
