    Eska Manual 3.0HP to 7.5HP

    Anyone out there have the Eska 3.0 to 7.5 HP repair manual? I have a 1978 Gamefisher 3.5HP engine. It's been sitting a long time, but it seems to have good compression when I pull the starter. Started tearing it down tonight and plan to rebuild it as long as I don't need any expensive parts.
