I purchased a antique 2 cycle trolling motor on e-bay and was told it is a Sears 3 hp (not sure this is correct). I have completly cleaned carb and fuel tank of all deposits. I can get it started (after lots of pulls) but am having trouble keeping it running (runs smooth when it does start). It has a Champion J17LM spark plug that seems to work best gaped at .30, is this the correct plug and gap? Also have the points gaped at .25, is this correct? If it was sold by Sears I am not sure if it is a Kingfisher, Tanaka, Craftsman, Ted Williams, Evinrude etc. Anything would be helpfull.
Thanks,
Larry
