Reassembling old 2hp outboard motor - 3 qns, TIA.
 

Hello, I'm trying my hand at servicing an old 1988 Evinrude Junior 2hp
motor, and have 3 questions:

a) Bi-metal corrosion occurs where stainless steel bolts go into an
alloy casing. I saw some liquid in a chandlery to inhibit this
effect, but it was very expensive. Does it really work? Is there a
cheap alternative?

b) The impellor blades (that pump sea water around the cylinder) are
neoprene. Should they be greased before
reassembly?

d) What kind of grease should I use for the spiral starting chord
return spring?

Thanks...

AL,

I don't have the answers to your questions, but you may get your answers a
lot quicker at --- uk.rec.boats.motor --- as it seems to be a lively
newsgroup.
