Hey guys, looking for someone to do some small repairs on my older evinrude motor. Maybe even a backyard guy. Anybody know somebody who does this kind of stuff?

What jr said what's wrong with it? If all that's wrong is the carb needs work or you're having fuel delivery issues YouTube a wrench 30 bucks info parts and a six pack can fix it.

There's a fellow just north of Onoway who has fixed a few small engine type things for me. I'd talk to him first to make sure he's on with a boat motor but so far I've been happy with his work. Pm me if you want and I'll give you his number.

Originally I needed to change the water pump and leg oil, we conquered them yesterday, I put new plugs in and it fired right up, ran rough for 10 seconds and quit. Then it fired up again and since then won't run, it's getting gas but now no spark. I disconnected the kill switch and still nothing, next step is to changed the points coils and condensor. I have never set points before, is it difficult?
I should also mention that this motor has sat for 3 years without being used.

If you find someone let me know I have a 25HP Evinrude that needs some attention. I'm in Edmonton.

Is Bob at Snowman still around? He worked on my old 9.9 Evinrude when I first bought it as a non runner, its been awesome since.
