    My interest is 1958-1972 Johnson-Evinrude 1-125 HP because that's what I have a Seloc repair manual for. (that I purchased from T-Mike)
    I stick with the 4-10 HP Johnson engines.
    Great little dependable bulletproof engines.
    Thanks for the history lessons and please make more videos like this one.

    Hello Mike. I am in the UK. Thanks for taking the time and trouble to post these videos. So far I have restored a 6hp Evinrude which was seized but managed to get it going and sold it on. I have 2- 4hp Evinrudes. Recently I bought a 1984 2 hp Evinrude and restored with new electrics and a transistorised Ignition module to replace points and condenser. Your videos very useful to me. Many thanks Peter Joe Hull

    Been restoring mid to late 30s motors for awhile. Since I live by the Ohio river and in a large lakes area there is a demand for cabin folks to display vintage motors. What I found out is that they will pay for non running motors since they don't want anything to "drip". Makes restoring alot easier an profitable. profitable.

    Minnasota & Wissconson ? Wisconson , I don't know how to spell it . That's where all the great buys on old outboard motors and boats are at . Wesconson , Wisconson , I don't know . The place where they have that bad football team .

    Thank you for sharing your knowledge! Just restored a 9.9 hp motor for a Jon boat my uncle left me with the help of your channel. I can’t thank you enough; it means a lot!

    Great video Mike….lots of information and very informative. I use many of the methods you do. Up here in central Canada a lot of the old outboards go for around $50 on average. I guess lower priced because of our short season. I have collected approximately 100 or so in about 4 years of collecting. Anyway keep the videos coming my friend. 👍

    I recently purchased a 1966 Johnson outboard motor, and I'm going through the process of rebuilding the motor. I got a new water pump, thermostat, and ignition system to get it back on the water soon. Thanks again and great video.

      One tip I can give you is they used the same motors in post hole augers at that time , the brand name eludes me at this time but often when something has a different application parts can be found easier on a different circuit sometimes cheaper.

    Hi Mike, how about the motors that were made in the thirties? Are they restorable?
