" What is the differance betwe
" What is the differance between a 1973 135 HP Evinrude from 1974 and up motors? I am having a hard time finding pistons for this motor and was told by a hesitent parts man that 1974 pistons "should work". When I tore the power head down it appeared to be just plain wore out, it will take a .064 overbore to correct. The thing that bothered me was there were chunks of piston missing between the rings on all of them and a partial melt down on top of one piston. What caused them to break up like that and how could I prevent it from happening again? I just bought this motor so I don't know the history on it.
Thanks for any info you can give me. "
