I could kick myself. I gave away a 1958 Evinrude just before I read this book. Now I'm sure I could have fixed it myself - probably in short order. I've had little exposure to working on anything mechanical, but this book is very clear and simple.
Max takes you step by step through exactly what he would do if he bought an older used outboard to evaluate it and set it up to run forever. That was exactly what I always wished I could have in print.
One reviewer has complained that it doesn't cover pre-1955 motors well and that is correct. Max basically recommends against buying an earlier motor, so spends no time on them. The motors covered here are mid-50's through early/mid 70's.

Besides providing valuable insormation about specific brands of motors, this manual explains how to service most old motors. With the help of this book, I was able to get two old (1946-1947) motors running almost as good as new.

This manual is better than expected. I am a student at B.S.U. and am studying old outbord repair and technology. This manual has been a great help to me. Thank you for a great product. The book also arrived in perfect shape and earlier than expected, Thanks again. I would do business with you again anytime, and I probably will! Bruce

The referenced book was purchased as I have a 1958 35 horsepower motor but lacked any servicing information. This manual is not exactly what I expected having been used automotive repair manuals available with step by step diagnosis and repair. It has a basic overview of motor design fundamentals. It also has sections for general maintenance and a somewhat vague section for troubleshooting. It covers several manufacturers and supplies individual specs for many motors. You will not be able to work on your motor by reading this book if you do not have a good working knowkledge of Outboard engines. However, it has quality information encompassing a broad number of motors. I am disappointed in the quality of the book itself. The pages are thin. The print is too small. Pages started falling out nearly immediately. It has some good exploded diagrams but they are way too small. Overall it is better than any other manual I've been able to find so far. With that in mind, I would buy it again despite its faults.

If you have a motor made before 1955 I would pass on this book,so far I have found NO INFORMATION for motors made prior to this date.
