[QUOTE="Jac4295, post: 174528, member: 4589"] So I just bought my first aluminum boat and it didn't come with a motor. I found an 18 hp evinrude on craigslist that looked to be in good condition and ran good. I went ahead and bought it for $300. The guy told me he just had it serviced with new plugs and wires, a coil, carb rebuilt and new gear oil in the lower end. My concern is that he didn't know what year it was and once I researched it I found out it's a 1958. Does anyone know if these are typically good motors and what I should watch for? Also can I get rid of the pressurized fuel tank? [/QUOTE]
