Hello first time posting here
I have a 1989 Evinrude 120 it has a standard 13 spline gearcase or so I thought. If I look at the parts diagram for said gearcase you should just drop the trim tab find the bolt for the anode and slide out. This one doesnt have it. only zincs I see on the engine are the 2 on the steering bracket. My 98 115 had a visible anode as the parts diagram shows.
My question is did Evinrude make a 13 spline gearcase where you have to drop the lower unit to replace the anode? Or did they make a freshwater version that doesn't require an anode? I've run this engine in saltwater but have flushed with fresh after each use. Is this sufficient?
Thanks
