I finally tried out the Evinrude 15 hp Fastwin on the
lake last evening. Wow, makes my little Alumacraft scoot
right along, especially when the largest outboard ran previously
on it was a 7.5 hp!
Haven’t re-checked the compression yet to see if the rings freed
up on the upper cylinder, but will soon.
It ran great about half the time, and the other half it was "fuel starved".
I have the carb off now. Found a little crud in the sediment bowl,
but otherwise not bad. It has one of those sintered, silver colored
filters in the sediment bowl. It doesn’t look bad, but
how does one tell if it’s plugged, and what’s the best way to clean one?
Are new ones available?
I can’t find a carb "blow-up" with parts numbers to see what’s available
new for this carb, such as said sintered filter, needle packings, etc.
Anyone have the carb parts numbers for the
1956, model 15016?
Thanks!
Prepare to be boarded!
