I am a new boat owner and new to this site.
I just bought a 1984 Starcraft 14' John Boat with an 18 HP Evinrude motor.
I would like to find out the year of it, I believe it is a 1967, but that is a guess.
I think these are the model numbers 187028 F12289.
I could not pull up anything using those numbers.
I would like to find parts for this outboard, but most sites don't go back that far.
I would like to get someone who knows a thing or two about these engines to look it over and give me some advice.
I ran the engine for the first time yesterday. It was a little tough at first but ran well after running a little bit.
The previous owner stated that I must run 93 octane gas in the motor. Is this correct?
Any help would be appreciated,
Michael
