[QUOTE="basstender10.6, post: 219915, member: 4643"] I found an evinrude 6hp on craigslist https://newjersey.craigslist.org/boa/2548900798.html From what I can tell, it looks like a 88' or 89'. I called the guy and he said someone left it there a few years ago and recently asked him to sell it for him. He said he had his friend "mr. fix it" come over and look at the outboard. The plugs were fouled.. (is that a bad thing) and they replaced both plugs. A can or hose is not included in the price. Assuming I can hondle and get this motor for a little less than the asking price of $375, is it worth it. He said that they got it running good and the water pump worked. If I do buy it, how much money will I have to put into it to get it running great? Thanks [/QUOTE]
