Hi all, Well, I bought my first boat this fall (1980s Cobia SS200, 19' centre console with a 1992 Evinrude 120, power tilt and trim on a jack plate). Only ran it once; lots of power, needs the carbs cleaned. Don't think it'll happen before spring! I wanted a kicker, both for trolling and as a backup for the main motor.
I was hoping for a 90s Evinrude in white, just so it matched the 120. But I'm cheap, and handy, so when I saw an 18 HP Fastwin advertised locally for $100, I went to have a look. It was seized; the fellah told me he had been given the motor by a friend, and had seen it running, but that it had been sitting for a while. He had had it.almost. starting, and expected that the coils were probably bad.
I talked him down to $90 (with a NOS spare prop!) and brought it home assuming the worst; cracked head, melted pistons etc. Hey, worst case scenario, I part it out and make my money back!
Here's what it looked like this morning; looks like all original paint to me. Pretty clean under the hood, and the lower unit is very tidy. (I'll refinish and repaint the hood when I'm done with the mechanics.) Thought about getting / building a stand. Then remembered that I had a couple of those hinged sawhorse frames. A short length of 2x8 and some cross-bracing, and voila - outboard stand. Took off the starter rope assembly, and went to my local car parts store.
They have a 'Loan a Tool' program, so I borrowed their harmonic balancer puller. Grabbed some extra 3' 1/4'-20 screws (since all the screws in the kit were larger and/or bent). Bolted it all up, put a 19mm lug wrench on the puller, and hauled.POP. Yay, step one done.
Re: Start-to-finish, complete rebuild of a 1965 Evinrude Fastwin 18HP, $90 purchase p The. Whatchama-call-it plate was just as the seller had said; coil insulation completely broken down. The points were covered with oil, as well; I'm not surprised the thing wouldn't fire. Pulled the plugs, and shot some penetrating fluid (bow chicka bow bow) into the cylinders, in the hope that by the time I got that far, they'd be loose. OH, I suppose I should mention. This is my first two-stroke rebuild, but I'm no stranger to oily bits.
I have an old car hobby / problem (mostly older VWs, Volvo, Mercedes & MG) and have rebuild a couple of engines, so while I'm not a mechanic, I have maybe 65% of the skills & tools I'll need to do this. And I'm willing to bluff / fake the remaining 35%!! Disconnected and bagged various accessories & brackets, eventually pulled off the head. Head gasket toast, combustion chambers surprisingly OK! Pistons still frozen solid.
More accessory removal. Pulled off the foot (looks very clean, gears feel good, Fwd / Neutral / Reverse engage smoothly). Had the hardest time removing the power head, until I finally dug around underneath, and found the one screw I'd missed! Pulled everything off the block; had a hard time splitting it, until I removed the plate that holds the reed valves, and found the two hex-head bolts that were holding it together (despite my best efforts to pry it apart)!:S Once they were out, the case separated nicely.

Crank looks good; bearing surfaces all look pretty clean, should polish up nicely with a bit of emery cloth. Either the motor has had.very. little use, or it's been rebuild at some point; given the paint and the state of the electrics, I'm guessing the former. Start-to-finish, complete rebuild of a 1965 Evinrude Fastwin 18HP, $90 purchase price Tried to bash the pistons out (with the wooden handle of a large rubber mallet). They moved; then stopped. I bashed away for a while.
Before turning the block over, and noticing that they can't exit the head from the bottom. Disconnected the rods and tapped out the pistons through the top.
Oddly, one of the pistons and rings is as-new; the other looks like the rings have seized in their lands (grooves), and have machined themselves right down flush with the piston wall. (Any guesses?) Anyhoo, I'll measure, but I'm guessing I can get away with a thorough cleaning, new rings and a quick hone.
(I'm pretty sure the spring-loaded hone that I had for my MG Midget should fit the 'Rude bore.) And that's where we sit at the end of Day 1. Four of the screws on the side cover wouldn't come off; I'll fight with them tomorrow, but for now the block is soaking in degreaser. Tomorrow I'll order some parts; so far the list is; Qty Part 1 172523 IGN.

Re: Complete rebuild of a 1965 Evinrude Fastwin 18HP, $90 purchase price Thanks Zephyr! Actually, when I was researching the motor, it was a lot of your old threads that kept popping up! Please don't be shy to chime in when I start going astray! 11 exhaust screws have yielded to my might. Two resist me still.

Tried the impact gun, but my local Princess Auto (Cdn equivalent of Harbor Freight) didn't have large flat head bits (?!!?) only 5/16' or smaller. I'll have to shop around, before punishing myself any further.
Oh, and; bought the service manual on CD on Ebay, for $17 or so. I'll print out the whole thing (at work of course! I said I was cheap, right?) so I've got a print copy, but I'm happy to have it digitally as well.
