  • Oops. When comparing it to the next model I said 3 cylinder instead of 3 horse power models. What a putts. 😂
    Thanks to those that noticed the fuel leak, I wasn’t aware of it. It is fixed now. It was a loose fuel fitting.

    That's a sexy motor. My introduction to small outboards was when I was 5 years old, back in 1963. My father took over operation of a marina on a freshwater lake in NC. We rented fishing boats and motors. My first experience driving a boat was with a 3 hp Evinrude that looked very similar to this one. I'm not sure what model it was, but I used it throughout my entire childhood. I was introduced to many outboards over the years. I was excited every spring as the fishing season started. I couldn't wait to see who would show up with a new outboard and to check them out. I can remember when a 100hp to 150hp outboard was about the size of a 300hp nowadays.

      Times have certainly changed, but my heart and memories in this industry are still with the small engines.

    Great to see running nicely on the water and love that wooden transom extension. Looks like a vintage accessory for kicker motors you clamp on. My 3.3 Sportwin beckons but must wait its turn. Cheers!

      It’s a runner indeed. Take your time with yours. I recommend stimulants when addressing the fuel system. 😉

      Good advice! Starting with the LU first to replace seals then to the carb and air adjustments. Apparently it was first outboard that used a computer (the size of a room mind you) for the fuel delivery system.

    I had one of those old timers. Mine was a '48, strange carb for sure! Strange way that the plug wires wind up under the flywheel also. I did not know they made these in 1951. I have a '52 that is the newer style. You have it running great. Thanks for sharing!

    Do these have water pumps?

      Yes, two actually if I remember correctly.

    is the motor leaking oil?

      You’re the second or third person that commented on that. I hadn’t noticed it at the time, but it had a fuel drip because of a loose fuel fitting. I just fixed it. Thank you for noticing it.

    Don’t see a water stream…air cooled?

    • @GearHeadJP

      It’s liquid cooled and the “tell tale” stream is very low and straight out the back of the mid section.
