      Thinking about a 1969 Evinrude Mate for sale near me. Question is, do these use universal mag components? Coil, points, condensor? Anything tricky about them?

      If you have too many, AND not enough, you're a collector.

        They use universal ignition components – just one coil, set of points, and condenser. Fun little motors…. but of course, no recoil starter. i had one and sold it since my 3 HP fit my needs in the small category better.

          They got recoil starters beginning in 1971

            The tricky thing about the 1.5 and 2hp is finding one with good compression.
