I am looking for someone in Michigan, preferably southeast area, to help with my Evinrude outboard. I believe it is a 1977/78 6-hp.
Last year I tried to no end to get it going, rebuilt carb and installed new plugs. However, I am still having trouble. In the midst of all that I am now having some issues with the pull cord. I think I may just need to be wound, since it is not retracting the cord well.
Anyhow, I really want to get this thing going. However, the local marine shops won’t work on anything that old. I am looking for either a person to do the repairs or someone to guide me, e.g. watch over my shoulder while I do the wrenching.
My guess is some logical troubleshooting and giving it a once over on the repairs I performed.
I searched the forum. However, there were no results for Michigan repair folks.
If there is anyone out there willing let me know. I will try and post more details later once I get home from work and the exact motor and model.
Thanks, Scott
