Awesome motor! I have a thing for these old OMC motors! We used them as workhorses and they never ever disappointed! Maintained right they can operate forever I'd say 😁
Хорошие были моторы, сейчас таких ресурсных уже не делают. С уважение Кукелев Евгений Витальевич, давний ценитель моторов Эвинруд/ Джонсон. С 1984 года. СССР. Город Хабаровск.
It's common to run these engines out of a 6-gallon portable tank with the oil mixed directly into the gas tank. I have this engine as well and have it set up with two of these tanks. I do a mild seafoam mix as well every few tanks just to help keep it clean. these old outboards are dirty but have a lot of kick for the size and weight. This engine is 220 lbs.
Runs rough I'll take a merc or mariner any day
Not to mention parts are much more available
70HP Evinrude was a 3-cyl engine made by Triumph (motorcycles)?
I had the same motor years ago. 1984 Model.
What prop size (diameter + pitch)?

Oh! That seems to push very nicely! I thought it might be super slow. Thanks for posting!!!
Nice!
wow
that things on fire😆
We boaters sure are impressed by our wake, and love to post videos of on youtube!
Just like this one, my 60 VRO shakes when running idle. What is that .?
That is completely normal for a two-stroke engine.
well yeah. needs warmed up or it is missing cause has not been cranked a lot or have it checked out!
Broken or worn out powerhead motor mounts (4) on an Evinrude or Johnson...
should 200 hp evinced more power
Nice vid...runs perfectly
Were you running off a gas can? If so are you premixing or is the vro still running separately?

@@zachwentzel9548 About how far/how many hours can you go on 6 gallons?
I have an '87 model and it does 8gal/hr at 3500rpm at 30knts, or around 1litre per mile at 2500rpm at 20knts.
tilt the engine up, it will go faster ;)
