I think its early 90's or late 80's. It was a friends motor but he went and bought a new 15 from SG and gave me this. Needs a tune up. I tried new gas and plugs but that won't do it. If I put gas in cylinder and then put plugs back it, it will fire and run for a few seconds. Probably carb clean or rebuild I'm sure. lots of compression. Intended on spending some time with it this summer but just haven't found the time and want someone to use it. Willing to let it go for cheap. How does $30 sound. Or trade for whatever. If you want to try to get it running before committing to buying it, I`m down with that too.

ps. sorry about the stickers. was owned by one of the Sitka owners and we used it in some photo shoots off Sydney spit for clothing catalog.

Holmes, Great deal.... Don't let it get away. It's an early 80's motor by the looks of it. I have rebuilt 2 of the in the last 10 years and sold them for $500-$800. Found that the guys with Zodic's love them for some reason.
 
They are a true workhorse, like their gas but will take a schitt kicking and still run.
