Enjoyed the video!! Everyone loves those little motors. Those little motors run nice and are very reliable. The fishing stories that little motor could tell. Cheers
I just bought one of these today at a auction for $5.00. It needs a new head gasket and spark plugs but I feel pretty good about getting this little motor running very soon.
I just bought one off of my dad it has sat in are barn for over 7 years I pull it out and put some fresh gas and some sea foam and it started in a few pulls just today I fixed the coil on the bottom spark plug and it is running amazing
Boy o boy, is that a sweetie, don't ever let go of that gem. Might not get there quick but sure does plane your boat off nicely. I didn't see vibration, I did hear the starter pawls rattling a little. Keep that one!
Nice one! I have a similar motor with a folding leg available in my area, do you think it's worth getting? Once they're up and running do these old motors experience lots issues?
Hi Blue Lake Your motor sound like a watch(perfect) Is it an engine with little use or proper tuning or both? Buy an evinrude lightwin 1956 3018 3 hp on ebay I need your help! What is the correct mixture oil/gas 24:1 or 40: for this motors? Some oil you recommend? Spark plug proper for this motor? Thank you so much
I had a 1965 of this model and it used 50:1. I believe it was even printed on the decals on the motor cover. They look identical in the shape of the cowlings and such, but a little more white in the paint job.
I got a 1958 version of this motor from a friend. I'm the 2nd owner. When I tried to check the impeller I couldn't get it a part. Didn't want to force it. Any suggestions?
I have the exact same motor. I got it from my Grandfather after he passed away. I am trying to restore it and am in need of a new carb for it. can you point me in the right direction?
I bought a 1966 with a folding lower end. When I got it put new gear oil and replace the water pump even though it's still look good and replace spark plugs I did not do anything under the flywheel except check the point gap, it starts right up and idles beautifully but I feel I'm only getting like 5 mi an hour. That's the reason I asked what you were getting on yours. It runs awesome but I may have to put some new coils, points and condensers and see what he will do. It would have been nice if Evinrude would have added a neutral gear. Thank you for your video
Love it! The exact model I'm trying to find as thats the one my grandpa had for our little boat each summer in Maine as a youth. Video is 6yrs old so not sure if you still own but any interest in selling or tips where to find a clean one like this?
We are knocking down a house and usually i go through and look and see what was left over. And found one of these motors. Hell yeah i took it. Pulls nice but leaks gas from the petcock. Just got it last night. Hopefully its something stupid
Hi blue lake, I also have a 1955 3 HP Evinrude motor Model # 3014. When I got it the side covers were missing. I picked up a pair of used ones at a boat meet but the holes in the cover don't line up with the choke knob or the high and low speed needles. Would you be kind enough to remove one of your side covers and check the casting number on the inside of the cover? The covers I picked up have casting numbers 203197 on port side and 203198 on the starboard cover. Unfortunately, the part numbers in the parts manual are much different than the casting numbers on the cowlings. I think I have either the wrong covers or the wrong carburetor.

@@Hooverdarnit ok then👍
What an ABSOLUTE BEAUTY!!
Wow, that's in amazing condition! I love these motors.
Great video. I've got a 58 & 59 model. Each needs a little repair but great motors overall.

What a beautiful little motor! I got one from -63 but your´s looks nicer w. the paintwork and decals more nicely designed! Thank´s f. sharing!
they are the smoothest running outboards in the 3hp class that I have ever encountered.
Very nice motor! These motors are such sweet runners :)
Boy o boy, is that a sweetie, don't ever let go of that gem. Might not get there quick but sure does plane your boat off nicely. I didn't see vibration, I did hear the starter pawls rattling a little.
Keep that one!
I have one right now it was sitting in a pasture im kinda confident i can get it going all i have left it to clean out the tank
Beautiful Engine!
Thanks, she does run well. I think your right about the pawls. Next time I have it apart I need to look into that.
Nice Motor 😃 3:12
Beautiful motor!!!
I have one of these up on ebay right now. Nice little motor.
Love It !!!
Where do you get coils for these ?
Nice one! I have a similar motor with a folding leg available in my area, do you think it's worth getting? Once they're up and running do these old motors experience lots issues?

What is the correct mixture oil/gas 24:1 or 40: for this motors?
Some oil you recommend?
Spark plug proper for this motor?
Thank you so much
I had a 1965 of this model and it used 50:1. I believe it was even printed on the decals on the motor cover. They look identical in the shape of the cowlings and such, but a little more white in the paint job.
What ratio do you mix the gas/oil? Is it 50:1 ? Beautiful
No, 16:1 is what you need for motors of this era.

Nice motor what size boat is the motor on in this video?
I bought one for €20, good deal?
I have the exact same motor. I got it from my Grandfather after he passed away. I am trying to restore it and am in need of a new carb for it. can you point me in the right direction?
How fast would you think you were rolling with it?
How long was the boat you were using in this video?
It's a 14ft Smokercraft. Here's a link to the boat I have, ruclips.net/video/S89iZymrHYc/видео.html
how much gas does it take for all day with mostly fast speeds? thank you
What kind of MPH do you think you get out of it.
Very nice motor
Maybe 6-8 mph?
I bought a 1966 with a folding lower end. When I got it put new gear oil and replace the water pump even though it's still look good and replace spark plugs I did not do anything under the flywheel except check the point gap, it starts right up and idles beautifully but I feel I'm only getting like 5 mi an hour.

@@seniorLu48
6-8 miles an hour is just a guess. I never used GPS on it, but it's probably closer to 6. 😊

I have one exactly like this. Ran 20 years ago. Would sell if interested
@@ubeuonly I would be interested
@@MrLitecky2011 where are u located
@@ubeuonly I'm on the west coast
Are you still running this little motor?
Yes, it's usually the first one I take out at the beginning of season.
I wish mine ran that good
That things prime
I bought one of these and had no idea what year he said a 1953 but seller was wrong about the year!!

The boat is causing the vibration
