[Boatmark]

That is a fucking knuckle-buster!

[stevenabb]

How many lawsuits would you generate in a 24 hour time period if you sold that exact same engine today?

[cowan636]

Hello,

I like this video, but I'm have a hell of a time when 87 Yamaha just started it up today Jane.all the mission coils. But is doing the same thing as last year runs only with the choke wide open or partially closed. I did a compression check today. All cylinders are 95 PSI or 98 PSI in that range.

I bought it online three years ago have not been able to get it to run. Still, it will not idle for longer than a few minutes then it dies need your help in this matter. Thank you

[catalina31768]

Thanks for making this video! Been thinking of getting an antique outboard, sounds like a fun hobby.

[outdoorsman310]

nice

[scallopboy]

Great to see it working and not being left to die in a museum

[dmould66]

good to see people on low incomes keeping old junk running so they can still enjoy being on the water. great work

[memberson]

[midgetmayo]

@memberson Definitely the coils.

[farmall51a]

wow very cool engine, but where do you get parts for them?

[1337bman]

how do you control the speed on these motors?

[classicoutboards]

@1337bman advancing the ignition timing for higher speed, retarding the ignition timing for lower speed

[megasonify]

tom manley had a brother named dexter who used to play for the redskins. those manleys were into everything and anything to do with sports. great workmanship too.

[nenadts]

Golf I is a beautiful car!

[hedlundk]

nice demonstration

[graphicsdude]

Great video! Even like the 1913 tribute music and facts included. It runs pretty good!

[Fuqinbad]

Tom Manley didn't have a brother named Toney did he?

[melostmo]

I used to love to get the old Johnsons & Evinrude working again... my hobby. I played mostly w/motors from the 50s. Purchased them for almost nothing. They were so easy to work on .. quite durable .. just real neat !!

[19baitmaster51]

they dont make that battery anymore, but I have several and a few chargers for them.

[renton7585]

cool

[215alessio]

nice made battery box, notice the car on the background :) the same as I drive

[keplermission]

Yeah but most folks on "You Tube" put the propeller in a bucket of water. Thing is some motors aren't designed to run without a load! :(

[mortal4evel]

makita battery awesome!!

[TheBoyNamedNoize]

@liketechnologie11 also the gas cap that said "mix oil" kind of gave it away too : )

[rottysaurus]

Simply Awsome... Just proves you cant beat anything built in the old days

[M4x6]

Gotta love that you can count the rpm's

Awesome piece of history

[mufflerbearin]

does it charge the battery when it running?

[classicoutboards]

@mufflerbearin no

[SpiritsoftheWolf]

@mufflerbearin, nope, it uses battery to power the coil to fire the spark plug, same way with hit and miss engine if the coil is no longer avalible for that old engine

[hitdapipe]

man u got one cool peace fof history there

[fixer234]

does it use much gas

[marlb0r015]

woow this motor is almost 100 years old!

and it still runs good i like this man a 17 y/o man likes this!! motors can get over 100 years old most of us people wont reach 90!! take care of this motor man don,t ruin it its a special motor!

[swarne8]

yeah I agree, they have even older ones called waterman outboards... weird

[marlb0r015]

a motor designed to live forever! :D

[fourfortyroadrunner]

Excellent. My Dad was a Johnson mechanic from the late '60's till about 68 or so. I still have his 48? Johnson 4.8? hp. Needs lower seal but it runs

Too bad there's not more videos like this and less of idiots hitting railings with skateboards!!

[ridedirtba]

If you don't like skateboarding don't travel to those sights. Oh and by the way if those kids were not GRINDING rails on their skateboards they would be doing things like robbing and stealing. so givem a break old man.

[hitdapipe]

its a fucking outboard vid let up ok???????

[eliseo530]

this has been the most ilustrateed 8 min i spent lately in the web,

nice piece of history you have there mr,

verrrrrrrrrrrrrryyy good

[evinrudeboy6601]

There is not a lot of these kinds of outboards left! PRIZE IT!

[PistonPumper]

Very Nice!

[tootone10]

Awsome little old banger, thanks!

[evinrudeboy6601]

I think it is a exlent outboard I ment to hit thumbs up^ oops I goofed

[maplelaffs]

love it nice work

[bigb9000]

Pretty cool and informative

[fangus503]

wow thats impressive. ill bet there is one advantage to the separate ignition source though. with a solid ignition system such as yours, no-doubt starting is achieved by a consistently good spark.

[coinman303]

crazy cool
