Hey!
Ive recently found this old outboard in the shed and decided i wanna try and get it going. it was my dads and it hasnt been used for years but its been stored inside and wrapped up. I dont know a thing about it and i need help! i'll up load photos, the serial number is 6435317. I dont even know if its 2 stroke or 4 stroke. its only 3.5 hp. I did a pretty detailed clean of the motor and put some 2 stroke fuel in it and after a while i got it to run for about 5 seconds but then it died, after that it was making a different noise whenever i would pull the cord, sounding like there may be something wrong with compression? anyway i kept trying and the starter rope snapped so i have to fix that before i can get back to it. But if anyone has any info about this model or anything that may be helpful at all, let me know! thanks!
