The 5.5 and 6 horse motors have to be two of the sweetest running motors to ever come out of the OMC factories! ’76 was the last year for the older magneto ignition before they went to CD ignition which was used until the last six rolled out in ’79.
I’ve had literally dozens of these motors over the years and like to always have one or two on hand ready for trout fishing! You just can’t beat a well tuned 6 or 5.5 for trolling! ☺
